the AD can easily have an assistant/intern do that shite. It’s clear they hire people to pump sunshine online and create hype to try to control the online narrative.


Yup. It's the deepstate, Q, and Disney pulling all of the strings.

no it’s pretty obvious.

Look at all
The hype going into the 2025 seasons when anyone with even remedial football knowledge could tell that that team was going to suck, primarily because of Napier’s playcalling.

My biggest question about Sumrall is why did he take the UF job in the first place?
He either thinks he can overcome the odds and breakthru like spurrier and Meyer or he can get a fat buyout from Stricklin and then a nice new job as his reputation won’t take much of a hit for failing at Florida as we’ve gained a stigma of being one of the worst jobs in the SEC in the post-modern era

Six year $44.7m contract, with 70% of remaining contract guaranteed (buyout)

Assistant and support staff salary pool of $16.3 million per year

Good incentives, including $1.5 million for an SEC Championship win

I'm sure that had something to do with it.



ETA:

He wasn't getting a better offer than that and Florida is good program with great in-state talent. While expectations are high, he could've gone somewhere without the advantages and without this much money and failed just as easily.
