Better talent. Good QB who will have a year of experience. Really good defense. And the new class they're bringing in is light years ahead of what the rest of the east brought in.

Because they couldn't be worse, ergo, better.

Bc Butch will get fired mid-season and UF still has no offense, no offense.

Everyone has a different definition of "talent".
For subjective reasons, I always look for 94+ in the rankings (high 4 stars and outside of quarterbacks... this is a reliable measure for consistent top performers on a team).

2016:
7 freshmen (94+)
7 sophomores (94+)
5 juniors (94+...Ramsey makes 6)
1 senior (grad transfer Maurice smith 94+).

That makes 14 underclassmen.
6 upperclassmen.

The good news is that we are replacing our 1 senior with 7 rising sophomores to give us 12 upperclassmen with high level talent.

And we are stacking the future with 8 players 94+ (excluding Fromm). So another 15 underclassmen in 2017.

The trick for 2017 will be the offensive line. Isaiah Wynn will be our only offensive linemen (upperclassman 94+). If we can't run the football... we will be playing a lot of tight ballgames against lesser talented opponents. And the better team doesn't always win those close games.

We will be much more mature and experienced in 2017 with talented players. We still will have our issues. But the senior leadership will be a huge difference.

I think they stay above average, but still not championship contenders.

They have a grest young QB who just needs a few more weapons, they have a pretty solid D which should get better through the year, and Nick Chubb and Michel will both be back.

Provide a link to all the dawgs talking about an impending national title going into 2016. If you cant, log out, and come back next week.

The way the gators have been publicly raped, debauched and shat upon the last two SECCGs, they should be the ones praying Georgia is magically better next season.

As much as you want it to be, it's not that far from the truth.

2016 class you had the #8th ranked recruiting.

2015 you had the #5th ranked class.

2014 you had 8th.

That's three top-ten recruiting classes in a row, and I'm sorry but when McElwain came to Florida he literally only had one side of the ball that was even remotely recruited.

There's no way a coach can inherit that talent and suck as much shite as Kirby did his first year.

It's like peole forget Richt making numerous bonehead decisions in year one and going 13-1 in year two

Yep ... All the bamer folks hating on Kirby now = they scared. Richrd has never had a top 3 class. But that doesn't matter. He could have and didn't develop the talent. Kirby will. And yes he'll figure out the game time management.


And to end ... His dental hygiene is must better than .... Well

Are you autistic? I'm saying McElwain came to Florida with less talent than Kirby did, and outperformed him in every single way.

WM Recruited like that, and had recruiting classes like that and tanked the program.

Kirby had top ten classes 3 years in a row before he got there, and looked like pure dog shite.

Why don't you seem to be able to understand and make the simplest of connections?
