I'm curious about your feelings on the season and the state of the program. As much as I hated losing to you this year, what I saw in the SEC Championship was extremely impressive.

You looked like the only team capable of beating Bama but now Mullen wants out and you're losing your top guys.

Do you think there's a foundation there for future success or is the program on the brink of exploding?

We are confused if we are being honest

We beat Georgia. Battled with Bama in the SEC title game. Won the East


But..it feels empty with the two embarassing losses. If he fired Grantham I think most of us would be good, but him retaining Grantham has lead to some questions on the future. UF will fire you quickly. Especially if you have recruiting violations and embarrassing press conferences. Our compliance department is pissed. Mullen has not a contract extension for a reason. He is a great offensive mind but he needs to fix the mistakes and defense quick or he will be gone next year.

Good question, do Gator fans feel better about their program and the season than mutt fans? It must be discouraging to have all those 5* players and nothing to show for it.

Hearing the CBS theme music and watching Georgia run out of the tunnel at the SECCG three years in a row, while knowing that Florida fans and Tennessee fans were watching the same thing on television, was pretty satisfying. Congratulations on being relevant in football again for the first time since 2009!!!

Damn...a real take. Rarer than unicorns LOL.

I am not familiar enough to say but firing Mullen next year if there have been mistakes made and not corrected and the defense isn't corrected seems a little quick.

I thought going into the season the Cocktail Party was a turning point for Smart or Mullen....whoever lost would find their seat warmer than warranted most likely. I think Smarts is indeed warmer and its well deserved....but I also think Mullen squandered that win and dug a hole for himself that didn't need to be dug and losing to LSU was bigger than the SEC CG or the bowl loss. The Bama game as very close, well played and called....the OU loss can be explained away easily and anyone being honest knows what happened.....maybe not to the extent but the loss is not surprising....but I think the LSU loss was simply inexplicable and negated the win in the cocktail party as far as seat warmth goes....as a UGA fan it couldnt have turned out better after the cocktail party unless a blowout loss to Bama was offered up....

We didn't have the QB right to begin the season. We needed a triggerman to get our team to meet its potential. Just bad luck that that happened after we played our two toughest games.

Who cares? Our program is much more stable right now. If Mullen leaves, you're in for another rebuild. I'd much rather be a UGA fan right now. Your program is on the brink of collapse AGAIN. Meyer bailed on you when the talent was lacking and now Mullen wants out cause all his good players are leaving.

How stable is your program when you haven't won shite in 40+ seasons?

How stable is your program when you have your starting qb,take money from an agent and then quit?

Leaving his team with a 5'8" walk on and a kid coming off brain surgery as your starter at qb?

Uga is so stable that UF beat you by by 16.

And Bama beat you by 17. They only beat UF by 6.

How stable is that?
