Trolls aside, Jay is fine, and he'll make a damn good AAD. He's a good moral guy and he's made some really good decisions as well as some decisions he missed on, just like every other human being on the planet. His hiring of Bruce Pearl and Butch Thompson were home runs. The basketball arena is top notch and our teams are competitive throughout the league for the most part...and we're in great shape financially. He did, however, ruin our absolute dynasty in men's and women's swimming.

LOL. About what exactly? Be specific.

Keep us posted on all the negative things that happen because Jacobs was hired.

Hell, I didn't know I was supposed to even pay attention to Associate AD's. Jay is the first one at UF that I've even known who he or she was.

How long do you give us before we shut our AD down?

Side note:

I used to play basketball at the YMCA with your very own Rowdy Gaines. REally nice guy. Can't shoot the rock very well but he'd run you to death.

You would think your athletic department was in the shape of Tennessee with the way some of these guys are talking. He seems like a guy that just couldn’t handle everything, he’s joining a well oiled machine and I’m sure he will be fine.

He’s an associate AD, you idiots hired him to run your entire athletic department and you’re laughing at us? That’s rich, he’ll be fine in this role.


End thread.

+1 Gators

He is pretty arrogant, so I do think it's funny he will be serving coffee to your AD.

Well, I mean, welcome to the SEC Rant. This place has more trolls than Tequila Night at a women's college.

If he’s arrogant he’ll fit in well in Gainesville, we may have a larger collection of arrogance on our campus than any non Ivy League college in America. Lmao

Ole Jay knows something about the ticket side of the operation. His best friends get the best deals.

That’s disheartening, I would hope we keep selling tickets the way we always have, Jacobs shouldn’t be making any of these decisions. If he does it’s on Stricklin.

Does this thread begin the week long banter between Auburn and Fla? If so, my body is ready.
