And it's not like we didn't just fire our HC half-way through the season and have a 4 - 7 year. Outside of the Offensive line (if Gouraige doesn't sign) we've signed an elite blue chip player to every skill position on offense.

QB - Emory Jones
RB - Dameon Pierce
WR - Grimes
WR - Van Jefferson
WR - Watkins
WR - Copeland(?)
OL - Gouraige(?)
TE - Kyle Pitts

Even on defense it ain't so bad, wish we would have gotten a true DT but I think meeting needs is more important than the final score.

If we get Copeland, Gouraige and Langham that will be a nice finish. It's too bad Gerald isn't announcing until Friday.

We played a LOT of frosh/true sophs last year and it will show on the field this year. We have plenty of defensive talent that some of you guys forget or dismiss. You just expect the yellow school bus to drop off high school kids at the Swamp ready to play or start....hmmm NO...that's not how it works. Taven didn't play much at all early on...but worked his butt off to be a possible late first round or early second rounder.

Remember Alex MacCallister? Came to UF as a 6'6" 210 lb skinny DE and was what? A first rounder? He didn't play right away either...but the training table and weight room cranked out a pass rushing monster....better than the heralded Dante Fowler.

I swear some of you guys need to be offshore with me in 6-8 footers and see how you fare. Get real and be positive....we are the Gators and we will be ok. Mullen was not my choice...but I'll support him and so far so good. He is bringing energy to the locker room and has a damn good staff.

Lets see how his gameday planning and play selection is and how he adopts to the talent of the players looks in 2018.
