I think the program builder talk was just some blabber made up to make people feel better about the crap product CBN put on the field every Saturday.

I have no clue how Scott Stricklin could have been duped by such a friggin’ bumpkin! Saban didn’t want him. Dabo won a natty AFTER removing Billy as their OC. UL had won a lot of games before Billy arrived. Coach Hudspeth won games at UL too. Stricklin should have looked at Billy’s full resume. Why would a P5 coordinator have to step down to a mid major? There are a lot of bigger programs for quality coaches to get their start.

Billy just struck gold with UF. Never should have been coaching at this level. Scott was bottom fishing. The rube.

Muh southern gentleman, that arrogant prick was too full of himself to hire a real OC. Ruined the lives of countless staffers who are now going to be unemployed and damaged the futures of how many athletes who wasted 2, 3, or 4 years "learning" under titans like Austin Armstrong or that bum Toney.

Napier said all the right things but was unable to deliver. Spot the ball, scared money don't make money. He was to stubborn and in over his head to make the right changes to be successful.

Stricklin should be held responsible. He hired the shaved head dullard. The coaching staff Napier put together was just a collection of horrible football coaches. Our QB has the fundamentals of a middle school QB. The O line (2 coaches) failed miserably at recruiting and coaching. Our db's are comical to watch. Most would be benched on a flag football team. I have no idea how UF rewards incompetence, over and over again. UF pays millions of dollars to people who suck, and fail over and over again. Until our effiminate A.D. is sent packing back to Mississippi. I'm afraid nothing will change.

I think the most damning evidence of this muck fire is the staff and their complete lack of know how.

No one and I mean no one on CBN's staff had any business being interim HC after he was fired. Sure Billy G is a great coach who has been with the program, but the bass ackwards plays are all that they know since they are all green and lack experience.

The only way Strickland should be able to save his job is if he lands Lane. Which we know he's going to screw up. With the complete apathy of the fanbase now (I have never ever left a game early until Saturday), he will cost the university millions in revenue.

Yes, yes I did.

And regretted it within 5 minutes.

Everyone needs to stop going. You're doing nothing but exacerbating the problem. Why change or fix the problem, if everyone keeps buying tickets?
