Kirby wants another home game every other year. Another SEC match up when he can bring in the top recruits in the country.




And he got that when the NCAA changed the rule to allow the home team of a neutral site game to host recruits.

It’s not the same. With the game on campus the recruits get to see the campus, the town and experience the atmosphere inside the stadium on game day.
I’ve loved going to Jax for the cocktail party but it’s time to move this game. If UF wants it to stay in Jax they can keep it there on the years they are the home team and they will get the vast majority of the seats.
I didn’t agree with moving the game at first. But, after thinking it over I now agree with Kirby that we are missing out on another home game every other year, revenue for our merchants and a great recruiting opportunity.
Jax has let things get difficult for the fans. Poor traffic management, surly stadium staff, long lines to get into the aging stadium. And forget about getting a drink or food at the concessions. The employees are understaffed, poorly trained and really don’t give a damn that the lines are backed up for a couple of aisles.
The reserved parking is expensive. I paid over $100 and got a place I could barely get my vehicle into. Could hardly open the car doors to get in and out as we were so jammed in.
I vote for home and home. And as soon as possible
