I think it's a problem. Murf Baldwin (Top Billin') mentioned in one of his vids the other day that he'd seen Gator fan behavior impacting our recruiting, noting that he still works a lot in the world of high school recruiting. He wasn't saying that's the magic bullet as to why Dan can't recruit, but he was noting that our fanbase in particular's toxicity on platforms like Twitter has made it that much easier to flip commits.

I think this is over emphasized, but again this is the only online outlet that I partake in. I think its true as stated before that 99.9% of fanbases have this same issue. But I'm not on twitter so I'm not sure how toxic it is on there I guess. My biggest problem with Facebook groups is that people on there with no knowledge or football credentials get on there and try to echo something they read on a board somewhere. I think its fine to be a fan without having much knowledge about football but just keep your mouth shut when conversations are going on.

This and shitty facilities. That’s one reason I don’t wanna shite can Stricklin. He is making a commitment towards facility upgrades.
