Well said, Jong. 

What Charley may have built, Charley destroyed, including himself. Charley was 
not well.

Charley Pell as one of the greatest program builders?  Sure, I'm on board with 
that.  He built Clemson into a national champion, and UF into a 
should-have-been national champion.
 
 Charley Pell as one of the greatest coaches?  I don't agree.  He coached so 
tight sometimes he squeezed the air out of himself and the team.  Note that 
both Clemson and UF had their greatest success after new head coaches took over.

lead the construction of facilities and even about thinking about providing 
facilities all these stud players would have to have before even thinking about 
coming to UF. Without Charlie Spurrier would have never gotten the talent. 
Neither would Meyer.
