I'm cautiously optimistic, but don't expect us to be in the title hunt next year - just improved to the point where we don't look like a bunch of clowns.
If we can achieve that next year, then I think that Urban will have us in position to be a force again the following year. But we'll see... --- On Tue, 11/30/10, Charlie <[email protected]> wrote: From: Charlie <[email protected]> Subject: RE: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] GatorNews From The Gainesville SUN For 11/30 at 7:00AM, Courtesy of Shane Ford To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, November 30, 2010, 2:58 PM I wish I did have some confidence but as of now I really have a pretty deep sense of foreboding for the future of Gator football under Urban Meyer. I saw some thing this year that were just jaw dropping for a staff with that many years of experience. One thing going in the Gators favor is I'm not usually right on these kind of things.

I doubt that is true... the problem is... Meyer doesnt want to get out of his comfort level and hire someone he isnt too familiar with.

The Noles MNC’s scattered their coaches with the wind and they were never the same. Same thing happened to Spurrier and now it’s happening to Meyer.

How confident are you that things will be turned around and better next year? 1972 Dolphins. Head Coach: Don Shula Offensive Coordinator: Howard Schnellenberger Defensive Coordinator: Bill Arnsparger Arnsparger and Scnellengeberger went on to achieve great things on their own. Unplug the two Coordinators and Shula, despite continued success, never achieved the same heights. One could point out that Spurrier was never the same without Stoops. It may be that we have simply lost too many talented assistants, and that a head coach - no matter if he is a Hall of Famer like Shula - can do it on his own. -Zeb -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us
