The state of Florida has several schools with rich history and is hotbed for talent.
How have all these schools stayed down so long? Miami getting humiliated by MTSU at home in front of dozens of fans. FSU is FSU. Florida lost to Kentucky AND Tennessee.

It wouldn’t be so bad if we didn’t have to hear about it all off-season long.
It’s understood that Alabama will be shoved down our throats by the media but to hear about the U for 9 months only to see suck arse is really disappointing

Fsu will hold it down for the state of Florida and win the Acc and go to the playoffs. Miam and Florida are breaking in new coaches and has to go through the bumps and bruises of what that entails with most new coaches.

I feel bad for all of those FSU fans on November 25th.

2018 - 1
2019 - 3

While there is talent they are sharing it with OSU/UGA/Bama/Clemson as well as each other.

And they're also "big" programs pulling in talent from elsewhere

That is very true and the biggest problem for Florida schools with so much of it's elite talent going out of state.

OSU gets a lot of Ohio and Pennsylvania kids too. And California now. When Meyer was at OSU, they got a lot more Florida kids but not as much anymore.

Arrogance and hubris. When other programs in the south were hiring 35 analysts and building 21st century facilities, the administrations at Miami and FSU and Florida were saying "we're Miami and FSU and Florida, we don't have to do all of that shite and spend a bunch of money because we're Miami and FSU and Florida."

Don’t forget. Mullen said recruiting wasn’t important. It was something that could wait until the season was over. Then he could try to pick up some 3 stars and coach en up

I expect Florida's recruiting class to fall from where it stands now. Still likely to be a pretty good class though

Drugs
Back in the day football was a joke in the state of Florida. Gators were the best of the lot and UK beat them regularly. You got 4 free tickets to a Miami game if you bought a Whopper at Burger King. Bobby Bowden was still at West Virginia.
I was living in south Florida on and off in the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's and I remember vividly when the Cocaine Cowboys hit the area. Between 1975 and 1995 I think it was the Federal Reserve in GA that was clearing a massively disproportionate amount of currency for the US.
I have always believed all that cash trickled down to Florida, Florida State, and Miami and helped indirectly fuel their 20 - 30 year run. When the drug business diversified across the US that wealth diversified too. If you are old enough to remember how fast Miami got a modern skyline and how many of those buildings were banks.
