God, the buttburn with LSucks fans is hilarious. When Bama kicks that as* this weekend maybe you will have something else to melt about until Nov 19th.


UF is walking into a hornet's nest on the 19th. It'll be fun watching your football team quit; just like your cowardly administration and fans.

Folley was OK but gets way too much credit. He hired Spurrier and Meyer but also Muschamps and Zook. Facilities are mediocre for SEC standards. He isn't all that he is cracked up to be.

Guy made some mistakes in football hiring and facilities but no one is perfect. All and all the Greatest SEC AD of all time by a lot of measures.

No, after Saturday most of the enthusiasm for this LSU team will be gone and you will be focused on who the next coach will be. Day game, team going nowhere. UF already locked in to SECCG, will be a typical November hornet's nest, all the hornets hibernating.

Nope we just get back to back Tiger trips to the Swamp because Alleva was too dumb to realize he got worked.

Foley hired Billy Freekin'Donovan,

Jeremy is the best and he has all the hardware to back it up.

The number of AD's that can match his accomplishments are few and far between.

The remarkable thing about him is that he worked his way up from the ticket office and ended up running one of the most successful ADs in the country for 25 years. Under his watch the Gators have won more SEC titles than most SEC schools have in their entire history. Not to mention national titles in 13 different sports. Some may not like him and he certainly had some mistakes, but he is one of the all time greats in his profession.

You have looked at the standings right?

2 game lead with 3 to play. Wins over Arky and USCe and the win against LSU won't even matter.

I like our chances of going to the SECCG better than LSu's.

Hard to argue agaist. He assembled a great team across a much wider breadth of the athletics department than the typical SEC school. Congrats.

Best moves he ever made was pussying out of the Miami rivalry and refusing to play an OOC road game against any team not named Florida State.

Thanks for the honest opinion, among all the LSU BS. He expected every coach of every team to win, some programs just field a team to field one. Women's golf was just as important to him as football.

We stopped playing Miami annually before Foley.

The funny thing is that you say he wouldn't play an OOC road game against anyone not named Florida State, and yet he scheduled OOC road games at Miami.

When you are the flagship university in Florida, you don't have to play scUM or travel out of state. So, what is your point?

130 SEC championships and 27 National championships. The numbers don't lie.

I believe that first sentence. If you believe the last sentence, you are completely clueless.
