Can we make it to the SECCG during years where we are the heavy favorite and the other teams in the division blow? Maybe not losing to one of said teams by 3+ scores with the division on the line.


Which team that was bad did we lose to by 3+ scores?

Or maybe not trotting out someone with no real game experience in the most important game of the season?


I definitely remember many on this board screaming to give Bauta a chance because he might not practice well and be a great QB in a real game. Several cheered the decision....until after the game.

It's easy to bring up the "every 3 years" and "top 10 half the time" stuff but that also ignores that the first half of his career here was very different from the last half.


I love to see how the narrative changes once you guys get what you wanted. Suddenly the bar is lowered for the favored coach. Yes...his career was not the same as it was earlier in Richt's stint here. We came an eyelash away from playing for a National Championship. Seems I recall someone in this very thread saying that a Natty sprinkled in with a bunch of 6-6 years would be fine.

You're more than welcome to try and convince me that UF was a good team in 2014.

It's not a shocker that the fans can't judge talent as well as coaches should be able to. I think fans also were under the impression that our passing game was so horrible, we might be trying to incorporate a running QB. Not taking a QB that we know can't throw as well and plugging him into the same shitty offense. After having him split reps with the ones.

I was pretty clear about what I wanted to see. It's the same thing I wanted to see from Richt and didn't. No use repeating it. Richt is gone, at some point you just have to let it go.
