Premier program in the state? Great win over FSU? Yeah, FSU up by a touchdown in the 4th quarter, despite 5 turnovers. Now FU plays mighty LOUISVILLE from the Big Least, and soon to be in the ACC. FU didn’t even make the SEC championship game! Get ready to get plunked again next year by FSU. but it least you’ll be in a good conference.

Hey, this is completely off the subject, but I noticed FSU still has real grass on their field. Haven’t they found some other place for the homecoming queen to graze yet?

Why would any recruit want to play in a conference as clearly second or third tear as th ACC?

FSU will NEVER win it all as long as they play a soft ACC schedule. In the big games with the big kids you can’t just “turn it on” and expect to keep it close much less win.

Last weekends ACC v SEC games tell a pretty clear story.

I predict ‘Bama and UGA will stink up the place Saturday and the human polls punish both due to SEC fatigue, thus allowing UF to slide into second place in the BCS and play for the NC.
It’s still possible! Don’t buy your Sugar Bowl tickets just yet.
Go Gators!

Great job by our guys Sat. Outstanding coaching and you could tell this was treated like a rival game. Hey Gator nation the future looks bright like it should, and could we please stop saying we’re gonna look like bama in a few years? We are the MIGHTY GATORS and that’s all we should ever want to look like.

I really dont care about these recruits until they sign…BUT to have him at the FSU game in Gator gear is funny!!!! The fallout of the FSU win and the Sugar bowl national attention is just going to make the Gator War Machine even better next year!!! We should have a huge haul in Feb and if the entire staff stays and wins coach of the year and asst of the year then I really think we can win it all next year!!! Driscol and all the new talent in the backfield as well as the wideouts coming in will really make this a heck of a team….We will be lights out on Defense next year too!! And the O will catch up with a second year with Driscol…..He is going to be a monster QB as far as game management by next year…..Go Gators.

One last thing. I’m glad Brantley was on an unofficial visit. If he had been on an official visit, it would have been very disrespectful to wear Gator gear and root for us.
.
Even with it being an unofficial, I’m not happy about him skipping the scheduled meeting after the game, but since he knew they were going to give him the high-pressure talk, and he had already planned to go to UF, I understand it. Still, I hope he at least texted the coach that he wasn’t going to meet and that he had chosen UF, rather than have him waiting around for a no-show.
.
It’s just that I believe kids need to respect their elders (even if those elders are Noles).

As for guy flipping, I only want them if we have space. Nobody who’s been offered and accepted should get booted.
.
However, if we have guys who are opening up their recruiting, or only giving a “soft” verbal, they need to either firm up and stop looking or be put on notice that we will find someone who wants to be here. Anyone still taking visits should be told they are playing with fire.
