No, I think if you look at the aggregate number of posters, the overall number of threads that they create to throw shade on the Volunteers, there is real reason for concern.

All these threads - when was the last time UT did this,that or the other thing - there's no reciprocity there.

Of course there is plenty of material.

UT beat UF 10 times in a row.

UT was the 7th program to win 700 games.


It took UF 53 years to win a conference crown, and then it was vacated for cheating -- including paying players to come to UF.

"UNDEFEATED NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!" -- Said no Gator fan ever.

UF has NEVER had an undefeated season.

But UF has had a season as recently as 1979 where it won no games at all.

UT has not failed to win at least 4 games a season since 1924, while programs like UF, UA and AU all had seasons with no wins at all.

Now, that is certainly a left-handed compliment for the Volunteers but the factors that caused a 10 year decline in UT fortunes have abated.

So there is plenty of Materiel to gig the Gators over.

Tennessee fans just don't see the need to generate this type of exchange.

So I think mental health issues for the Gator fans are palpable.

They act like like a bunch of stupid little kids.

How do you keep a Vol from masturbating?

Answer: You paint his dick orange & blue.
He won't be able to beat it for at least 11 years!

The streak will survive for at least 5 more years, little orangies.

"GAINESVILLE, FLA. — At the end of May, the presidents of the Southeastern Conference overruled a decision of the conference`s executive committee and voted to strip the University of Florida of the 1984 football championship, the first the Gators had won in 53 years as a member of the SEC...

Many of the violations were minor--buying a T-shirt, buying a meal--but at least half were serious: using cash inducements to get players, scalping complimentary tickets at a profit for players and coaches, having a slush fund, providing illegal room and board and spying on opponents. After being granted immunity against loss of eligibility, All-America offensive tackle Lomas Brown admitted getting cash, having his tickets sold for cash and getting illegal lodging for himself and his parents. All-America linebacker Lorenzo Johnson admitted accepting money and scalping his tickets.

``I don`t think you could have a successful program if you said to kids,

`If you want to come, fine; if not, that`s fine, too,` `` said running back Neal Anderson, who this year can become Florida`s all-time leading rusher. Anderson was not cited for being party to any violations...

``We`ve got some wild-eyed, diehard boosters who are crazy,`` LaPradd said. ``They spend a lot of time and effort and money and need that ego boost. I don`t need that.``

LaPradd insists his character was misrepresented last year by a widely circulated quote that had him saying, ``As long as he hasn`t committed murder, rape or robbed somebody, I`m behind Charley Pell 100 percent.``

``What I meant,`` LaPradd explained, ``is that out of the 107 things, I don`t see where he killed or raped somebody, so it wasn`t so bad.

``The only thing that embarrassed me was the spying. The other things are common practice with everybody.``

-- -- --

The position that Florida was doing nothing worse than anyone else

--especially, in Gator fans` minds, the archrival University of Georgia--is widely held in Gainesville.

``The hate that exists for Georgia is unbelievable,`` said Steinbrenner, the majority owner of the New York Yankees, who was found party to two minor violations. ``For Georgia to vote for recalling the trophy when it is on probation in two sports (football and basketball) is unbelievable.``

"....using cash inducements to get players."

There is plenty of shite on the Gators. Don't they basically live in shite?

Few universities have the shite on them that UF does. You'd think their fans would be a bit more discreet.

I have looked, and the worst sanction I find on Tennessee is a couple of scholarships revoked due improper contact and camps, for which Johnny Majors was soon released.

I posted all this once before and will probably post it all again, given the 10 year old mindset of many UF fans.

I'm impressed. I didn't think you had the ability.

UT didn't learn anything from our transgressions though.

NCAA major infractions in 1986. Again in 2012. Cheaters.
