    With Driskel healthy again, and if this guy can get your offense up to just being good and throw in an always very good Muschamp defense and you guys could be back in the hunt...save Will's job.

    Well one of your competitors, the Gamecocks, are having a big fallout from their #16 rated class of 2014. Can't get about 1/3 of them qualified. I do know one thing about you Gators, you guys don't operate that way.

    You must be reading my dreams Terry..... lol

    That is exactly how I could see a great year unfolding..... but reality could be a different story.

    RE: South Carolina.... UF has very stringent requirements.... more so that does SC. Maybe that makes a diff from the start.... I believe all of ours are qualified.

    re: South Carolina.. After reading that sad account I have to wonder if any university program has ever assembled a larger collection of morons on one team in history.

    They must need help putting their equipment on. Does the QB use an Etch a Sketch to call plays?

    C'mon George... those guys have been trained from birth how to put on their equipment.
    It's finding the correct locker to get their equipment - that is the challenge!


    :p

    I am very optimistic about the upcoming season.

    I also like Muschamp a lot and want him to succeed.

    As to recruiting, the administration at Florida does not allow players to be brought in and offered scholarships unless they have a good chance to qualify.

    No matter that S. Carolina has been good lately I think Spurrier has to chase marginal students to qualify more than the Gators. Unless some of those guys qualify before the season starts that will hurt the Gamecocks, more next season than this one.
