2009-10-07 Thread John Vega

As a Gator fan, I see this point. I will still follow and love the  
Gators even if there were a total media-blackout.

That said, I am wholly unconvinced that it makes one whit of  
difference in the games themselves, and is more a product of coaching  
or administrative paranoia than any verifiable strategic advantage.

I would go further and posit that, while it will not drive away  
committed fans - of which UF has plenty - it may affect the  
cultivation of the next generation. I happily paid for late-night pay- 
per-view heavyweight boxing championships in the 90s, having grown up  
watching Muhammed Ali for free on Saturday afternoons in the 70s.

When all boxing went to PPV, the next generation of fans were lost,  
and now, so is the sport. Can anyone name the current heavyweight  
champion of the world? Couldn't we all have done so 20 years ago?  
Heck, there was a time I could have names them in order.

I sense a decline in NFL interest as well. When tickets are too  
expensive to take your kids to the game, and a corporate mentality  
sucks the fun out of what should be a joyous game, it's not hard to  
predict the long term affects.

I think that starting immediately - theGators will openpractice and the news and let us know what is going on. 

Otherwise - we'll look at the Gators as an NFL team and start treating them as such

Meyer has stated- since Tebow's concussion -(1) some or the better players don't need to practice. For example, I think 3 of the OLmen sat out last week and this week - but are expected to play. Spikes is another example of someone that has not been practicing a lot - but playing.  

(2) Other times - Meyer has said that he does not know if he would play someone that did not practice for 2 weeks. 

So Meyer is playing poker with everyone. 

If I was in Meyer's position -I would probably do the same thing. 

But as a fan - it pisses me off not knowing. I've always been a Gator news junky. 

I think it pushes the true fans away. But I guess if they are winning - they are picking up more gator fans than they are pushing away. 

Business is business.

UT isn't exactly filling their stadium this year.  They're actually
advertising for season ticket sales now.  They didn't sell out for UCLA.

But, that being said, they pay a heck of a lot more attention to their
quarterback than USC fans do.

Kiffin should thank Crompton.  He's taking the heat for Kiffin's lousy job
of coaching him.

People on the west coast pay attention to USC football when they are good.
In 2002, they had not yet returned to the elite status, at least not high
enough to warrant the devotion of the attention span challenged residents of
southern California.

UT fills their stadium every year, even in a losing season, and the
toothless live and die with their football team.

In SoCal, nothing gets that kind of loyal devotion.

All JMHO, of course.

Vols vs. UCLA: Loss called 'embarrassing'Kiffin takes the blame for inept performanceCommentary by David Climer THE TENNESSEAN
KNOXVILLE — In his first nine months on the job, Lane Kiffin came off as (choose your description) brash, brazen, confident or cocky.
Maybe all of the above.
After Tennessee's season-opening blowout of Western Kentucky last weekend, Kiffin turned a bit smug.
Consider this, then, his official introduction to the current state of Vol Ball. On a number of given Saturdays this fall, the unofficial post-game meal will be Humble Pie.
Humility was served on this day at Neyland Stadium. After the Vols were throttled 19-15 by UCLA, a second-tier Pac-10 team, Kiffin looked and sounded like someone who now understands that the rebuilding of this program is going to require patience and resilience.
Kiffin acknowledged he "didn't do a very good job" of handling things with quarterback Jonathan Crompton. He said it was "my fault" for putting players like wideout Gerald Jones on the field in key situations despite a lack of practice time because of injury.
Kiffin needs to save some of that humility for later. The Vols play at Florida on Saturday. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
From what we saw out of Tennessee on Saturday, this is a team capable of putting up only token resistance at The Swamp. The Vols' offense had four turnovers and managed just 208 yards and one touchdown against UCLA.
Kiffin, who oversees the offense and calls the plays, termed the offensive performance "embarrassing."
Meanwhile, I don't know if you've heard about this or not, but Florida has made Sept. 19 an orange-letter day on its calendar. Shortly after his arrival at UT, Kiffin began taking verbal jabs at Gators Coach Urban Meyer. Some of Kiffin's more colorful comments have been plastered all over the Gators' practice facility.
After winning its first two games by a combined 118-9, top-ranked Florida appears ready to flex its muscles. Tennessee? Well, let's just say the Vols better be in survival mode.
"I'd say they'll probably be ready for us," UT defensive tackle Dan Williams said.
The UCLA game was a painful reminder that Tennessee is very much a work in progress. The opening rout of Western Kentucky was an illusion. The meltdown against the Bruins was a reality check.
"We've got a long way to go," said freshman wide receiver Marsalis Teague, who was held without a reception after catching six balls against Western Kentucky. "We've got to learn from this and move on."
Much work remains. The change of coaching staffs may have given a number of players fresh starts, but there still are some bad habits lingering from the 5-7 performance of last season.
Kiffin said he noticed some grousing and finger-pointing when he entered the locker room after the UCLA game. He intervened. Clearly, Kiffin understands that he must change the culture of this program.
"That's Coach Kiffin's job," Vols linebacker Nick Reveiz said. "He's going to point that out and correct our mistakes. I think we came together as a team."
Repairing the Vols' collective psyche is one thing. Fixing UT's on-field problems is another.
Let's face it: Tennessee is not going to beat teams of substance with this kind of quarterbacking from Jonathan Crompton. His numbers — 13-of-26 passing for just 93 yards, with three interceptions — were comparable to some of the low points of last season.
The interceptions came on three consecutive series. On the first, he overthrew an open receiver. On the second, he locked in on a receiver and failed to see the cornerback jumping the route. On the third, he threw late and off-target.
In short, Crompton reverted to last year's form. And that's not good for the Vols.
Asked if his struggles reminded him of '08, Crompton said: "I don't think about last year."
It remains to be seen if Crompton can pull himself out of this. If he can't, how long does Kiffin go with him?
As things turned sour against UCLA, Kiffin said he never considered benching Crompton in favor of junior Nick Stephens, who started six games last season.
But if things don't get better, all bets are off.
And this just in: It's not going to get better against Florida.

If we want to have a chance against Charleston Southern - we can't let Charleston Southern know who is playing,starting, injured, and we have to keep practices off limits so we don't let them know our trick plays !

I'm really sweating this game - because we must not be anywhere near all the preseason hype.

The truth is - we must really %$^# - and the coaches don't want anyone to know it. 





Florida Gators coaches not naming starters yet
BY MIKE McCALLMiami Herald Writer
GAINESVILLE -- Reluctant to name starters, defensive coordinator Charlie Strong and coach Urban Meyer insist there are three starting safeties and six starting offensive linemen for Saturday's matchup against Charleston Southern.
Strong said Ahmad Black, Major Wright and Will Hill are all first-team safeties, and Meyer said Matt Patchan, Carl Johnson, James Wilson, Marcus Gilbert, and Mike and Maurkice Pouncey will form the line.
``I talked to [offensive coordinator Steve Addazio], and he's not going to announce [who will start on the line],'' Meyer said.

p.s.s.  I've spent too much money to watch the defeats to give up now.  I'm

[gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Today's Gatornews from Miami Herald and Palm Beach Post

Actually, Zeb, that apostrophe is misplaced and often is, even in the writing 
of learned folks.  If you consult a writing handbook, you will find that a 
reference to the years 1960-1969 should be written '60s, not 60's, with the 
leading apostrophe there to denote the omission of the 1 and the 9.  The term 
is not possessive, and, therefore, the apostrophe between the 0 and the s is 
incorrect.

That being said, it is considered correct to insert an apostrophe when 
pluralizing a letter.  It is correct to write, for example, My son got 5 A's 
on his report card.  That is done so that the reader will not confuse the 
plural of A with the word As.  

Thank you for providing a way for me to kill 5 minutes of this endless wait for 
kickoff...

 The landmark then becomes more quantity than pure athletic quality,

 starter (Tebow's is 22-5, or .815, so far).

The unique thing, to me, about Tebow is his remarkably low error  
percentage.

His TD passes to INT ratio is off the charts good.

He almost never fumbles.

Turnovers kill drives and lose games.

For all the stats that other passers or runners may have, they need  
to be tempered by the number of times that they turned the ball over.  
What is the average difference in field position? 45 yards - if the  
turnover was on 3rd down and a 1st down was not earned. If it was on  
1st or 2nd, the loss is greater due to the lost offensive  
opportunity. -50 yards? -60 yards?

If that negative yardage is factored into the stats, I'd bet that  
more than a few players with arguable similar stats would fall to  
earth in a hurry.

I wish he would get some meaningful time at RB - but coaches seem to blow off walk ons.

Moodydoes not appear to behungry. I would put Chris Scott in and let him play and let Moody think abot it all he wants.

I don't know why they aren't planning to use Gillisee as the big back - in place of Moody.

I don't expect anything from Debose until late in the season. It will take a while for him to learn the offense.

Demps missed most of the track season with an injury - I think hamstring. But I have not heard anything about Demp's injury this football preseason. Coaches are very high on Demps - hope he can stay healthy.

The coaches are surprisingly high on Moody -considering Moody is often injured and unable to play.

Seems likecoaches always overlook Rainey.

Sounds like Gillisee will only see special teams.

Chris Scott may only see scout team or fullback.

The Gators have one remaining two-a-day, this Saturday at 8 a.m. and 4:40 p.m. 
Starting Monday, practices will switch to the afternoon in conjunction with the

I don't expect anything from Debose until late in the season. It will take a while for him to learn the offense. 

Demps missed most of the track season with an injury - I think hamstring. But I have not heard anything about Demp's injury this football preseason. Coaches are very high on Demps - hope he can stay healthy. 

The coaches are surprisingly high on Moody -considering Moody is often injured and unable to play. 

Seems likecoaches always overlook Rainey. 

Sounds like Gillisee will only see special teams. 

Chris Scott may only see scout team or fullback. 

ThenMr Everything RB- Mack Brown - will be here next year. But Meyer and coaches have not been playing true freshmen that much - mostly special teams. 

If Moody progresses then Mack Brown might not see the field that much. If Demps and Rainey could gain some more weight, block better, and get through the line of scrimmage - even less likely that Mack Brown would see the field much.

Patchan's was something like -a reporterasked Patchan what the hardest part of playing on the OL versus the DL was. Patchan replied - "Coach Addazzio spitting on you during meetings".


 Original Message 

The Gators had a scorcher of a practice on Tuesday, with temperatures of 85 degrees and 82 percent humidity helping make Meyer’s rigorous practices even more challenging.
“God turned the heat up on us today. Wow, that was a tough one,” said Meyer, dripping with sweat. “The objective of our camp, you have to feel really lousy before you can feel good, and we’re at the point where everyone is feeling real lousy — which is good.”
Quote of the day
“I seen the devil out there today. He was wearing a white hat.”

  COLUMBIA, S.C. — Steve Spurrier backs Bobby Bowden when it comes to vacating 
victories.

  Spurrier said Sunday that Bowden and the Seminoles should not have to give up 
14 victories as part of the NCAA penalties because of an academic cheating

I never asked for transparency.

The fences around the practice fields are covered with opaque green  
fabric to a height of about 12 feet. You live close, please check, I  
may be wrong about the height but am pretty sure that the opacity and  
color are accurate.

I think that you'd have to rent a helicopter to get a good view of  
our practices once the guarded gate is closed.

If the current measures at the practice field are inadequate, I'd be  
interested in knowing the manner and how much it would cost to  
correct those inadequacies.

That seems more sensible than abandoning practice fields that were  
built for the purpose of, well, practicing.

Or you can go to the top of the parking garage adjacent to the practice fields 
or walk into the baseball stadium from Museum Drive.  If you don't think that 
some form of espionage is not going on with our major competitors, you are 
being rather naive.  These will be the weeks that things like putting Haden in 
the Wildcat formation, working on personnel groupings, as well as setting the 
depth charts.  If you want to be a Championship calibur program, you will want 
the privacy for these weeks.  

They only go to the remote fields for Pre-Season Camp.  This is our training 
camp where we want to get the team away for the next two weeks, prior to 
beginning game prep week for the beginning of the regular season.  Other 
coaches in the past would take the team to Ocala for the two weeks of two a 
days.  I don't have a problem with what Coach Meyer is doing.  He wants two 
weeks of intense focus to get prepared for a most difficult challenge, 
Repeating as National Champions.  This doesn't happen very often and we will be 
wearing a bulls eye every single week.  The team will be back on regular 
practice field after camp.  

I for one back Coach Meyer completely in this decision.

Yes, this is just not worth getting this excited over.  The team wants
privacy.  They have to go somewhere else to get it.  I'm sure they'll be
back in the regular fields soon.

Or you can go to the top of the parking garage adjacent to the practice
fields or walk into the baseball stadium from Museum Drive.  If you don't
think that some form of espionage is not going on with our major
competitors, you are being rather naive.  These will be the weeks that
things like putting Haden in the Wildcat formation, working on personnel
groupings, as well as setting the depth charts.  If you want to be a
Championship calibur program, you will want the privacy for these weeks.  

 

They only go to the remote fields for Pre-Season Camp.  This is our
training camp where we want to get the team away for the next two weeks,
prior to beginning game prep week for the beginning of the regular season.
Other coaches in the past would take the team to Ocala for the two weeks of
two a days.  I don't have a problem with what Coach Meyer is doing.  He
wants two weeks of intense focus to get prepared for a most difficult
challenge, Repeating as National Champions.  This doesn't happen very often
and we will be wearing a bulls eye every single week.  The team will be
back on regular practice field after camp.  

 

I for one back Coach Meyer completely in this decision.

I never asked for transparency. 

 

The fences around the practice fields are covered with opaque green fabric
to a height of about 12 feet. You live close, please check, I may be wrong
about the height but am pretty sure that the opacity and color are accurate.

 

I think that you'd have to rent a helicopter to get a good view of our
practices once the guarded gate is closed.

 

If the current measures at the practice field are inadequate, I'd be
interested in knowing the manner and how much it would cost to correct those
inadequacies.

 

That seems more sensible than abandoning practice fields that were built for
the purpose of, well, practicing.

believed to have a clause in his contract guaranteeing him $1,000 more than
the highest-paid SEC coach.

My understanding is that Miles' clause only kicks in whenever he wins a NC.

So, if he wins the NC this year, he bounces to the top.

If someone else gets a higher salary after that bump, I don't think that
Miles's salary goes up again unless he wins another NC subsequent to the
other coach's raise.

*Mountain West Commissioner wants Harris, Coaches polls abolished*

by Ben Volin

Despite going 12-0 in the regular season, the Utah Utes were denied an
opportunity to play in the BCS championship game in favor of two one-loss
teams. The Utes were ranked No. 5 in the season-ending computer poll, but
just No. 7 in both the Harris and USA Today coaches polls.

“One of the Harris pollsters last year said, ‘Well I never saw Utah play,’”
said *Craig Thompson*, commissioner of the Mountain West Conference. “They
were on TV 11 times. National DirecTV satellite. Versus is on in 75 million
homes. CBS college is on in 33 million homes. That’s not a very concerted
effort to do your job. They’re easily found.”

I caught up with Thompson on Friday for a story on the SEC’s television
deal with
ESPNhttp://www.palmbeachpost.com/sports/content/sports/epaper/2009/08/01/a1c_sec_0802.html,
and how the rich are getting richer in college sports. His conference opted
to sign with Comcast/Versus and CBS College Sports three years ago, because
the only way MWC teams could get on ESPN was by playing on Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday nights. The MWC’s television contracts pay each team
about $1.4 million per year, while SEC schools will now get $16 million per
year, $11 million of which comes directly from ESPN.

In our conversation, Thompson said he would like to see the Harris and
Coaches polls removed from the BCS equation, because they amount to little
more than opinion polls, he said. And most of the voters only know about
college football what they see on ESPN at the end of their Saturday night.

The Harris, Coaches and Computer polls each count for 1/3rd of the overall
BCS equation.

“I’ve never been a great fan of the opinion polls. That’s all they are,”
Thompson said. “Just the *Tim Tebow* story from last week is the perfect
examplehttp://blogs.palmbeachpost.com/gatorbytes/2009/07/24/spurrier-didnt-vote-for-tebow-changes-his-vote-takes-full-blame-and-apologizes/.
Coaches aren’t filling those (ballots) out, and those that do, aren’t they
kind of busy on Saturdays?”

“I’ve always been a proponent of the computer polls,” Thompson added. “They
just look at statistics. At least it’s a little more performance based than
a human being that’s saying, ‘Well gee, I saw nine of their games….’”

 I think he is a very fair writer, unlike most of the other Post sports

I had no idea that the UAA actually paid the tuition for athletes to  
the University.

I had always assumed they simply attended for free.

If the total tuition number (not just the 1.6 million increase) is  
added to the 6 million grant last year, I wonder what the total  
amount given from UAAA to the University would be.

Florida Gators get plenty of love in Phil Steele's 2009 preview


by Ben Volin 

Just got my handy 328-page Phil Steele's College Football 2009 Preview in
the mail this weekend, and not surprisingly, Steele loves the Gators.

How so? Let's count the ways:

1. Phil's BCS champion: Florida (for the second year in a row)

2. They are the most experienced defending National Champ in a long time
and not only are they the only team in the country that ranks in all 8 of my
individual units but they are in the top 10 in all 8 and in the top 2 in SIX
of the eight! For the 2nd straight year I will pick Florida but this time
they figure to be the preseason #1 team by almost everyone (unlike '08).

3. BCS championship matchup, January 7, Pasadena, Calif.: Florida vs. Texas
(for the record, I agree on both teams)

4. Phil's preseason First Team All-Americans: Tim Tebow, Carlos Dunlap,
Brandon Spikes, Joe Haden, Brandon James (kick return).

5. According to Steele, Florida has the: Best quarterback duo in the
country; second-best offensive line in the country (behind USC), second-best
defensive line in the country (behind Oklahoma); second-best linebacking
corps (behind Penn State); second-best defensive backfield in the country
(behind USC); and second-best special teams unit in the country (behind
Boise State).

6. Steele ranks the SEC as the nation's toughest conference for 2009,
followed by Big 12, Pac-10, Big Ten, ACC, Big East and Mountain West.

7. Number of Gators named to First, Second, Third or Fourth-Team All-SEC: 15

8. This year's squad has 18 returning starters and is the best that Meyer
has put on the field. Despite the fact that their SEC schedule is tougher
with just three SEC games in The Swamp, all 9 sets of my power rankings call
for an unbeaten season and the Gators may have the best offense, defense and
special teams in the country. 

9. The No. 2-ranked freshman receiver in the country? Andre Debose.

10. The No. 1-ranked freshman offensive lineman in the entire country?
Xavier Nixon. Nick Alajajian is No. 11.

11. The No. 2-ranked freshman linebacker? Jelani Jenkins. Jon Bostic is No.
14.

12. Steele ranked Florida's 2009 recruiting class as the sixth-best in the
nation (but fourth in the SEC).

13. Steele has Dunlap and Spikes as top-10 NFL draft picks in 2010. He has
Tebow as the 14th-best draft-eligible player, with Haden at 26.

14. Steele projects Florida to be No. 1 in the nation in rush defense, pass
defense, points against and total defense in 2009.

15. Finally, Steele predicts Tebow will win the Heisman Trophy. Tebow got
my vote last year and while he had the most 1st place votes and outplayed
the Heisman winner Sam Bradford in the bowl, he was just #3 in the voting.
He put the Gators on his shoulders after the loss to Ole Miss and if the
vote was done after the bowls he would have clearly won. Archie Griffin (the
only two time winner) should get ready for some company.

Greg Cote: NCAA going too far in taking wins from Bobby Bowden


 Florida State coach Bobby Bowden watches a replay on the monitor against
Miami in the third quarter at Dolphin Stadium, Saturday, Oct. 4, 2008.
 


Florida State coach Bobby Bowden watches a replay on the monitor against
Miami in the third quarter at Dolphin Stadium, Saturday, Oct. 4, 2008. 


By GREG COTE


The legacy that Bobby Bowden has worked 50 good years to build and grow and
earn is being hijacked by a misguided committee of pinheaded bureaucrats.

Punishment is merited for Florida State University's academic misconduct at
the root of all this, yes. But the NCAA infractions committee tramples
common sense and fairness to allow a small-scale scandal to derail college
football history.

The NCAA sanctions, upheld this week, would cost Bowden 14 career victories
unless FSU prevails later this summer in a final appeal. The reduction would
all but hand the all-time record to Penn State's Joe Paterno, whose 383 wins
led Bowden by one entering this coming season. 

With Bowden turning 80 in November and planning to coach only one more year
or two more at most, vacating 14 wins is a death penalty to his dream of the
record -- something he has worked toward since his first head-coaching job
in 1949 at Howard, and the past 33 years leading the Seminoles.

''Joe would not want to win this thing the way [the NCAA is] doing it,''
Bowden said Friday -- and he's right. Paterno, even with history to gain,
has said it would be a shame if the penalties included victories stripped
from Bowden.

Baseball's hallowed home run records are stained by steroids and now one of
college football's biggest records will be stained, too, and needing an
asterisk -- only this time through no fault of the potential record-setter.

BOWDEN IN THE DARK

Bowden had no idea that for a couple of semesters in 2006-07 a tutor and two
low-ranking academic staff members took it upon themselves to feed students
answers to an online music-history test. Sixty-one students in 10 sports
were involved.

FSU discovered the wrongdoing itself -- a renegade misconduct not
orchestrated by any coach -- and quickly turned itself in, cooperating with
the NCAA probe and, in Bowden's case, even voluntarily suspending the
involved players from the 2007 Music City Bowl and the first three games of
the 2008 season.

So much for FSU's forthrightness in coming forward mitigating in its favor
with the NCAA.

The governing body could have and should have simply reduced scholarships
for the involved sports and placed each on probation. Instead, in addition,
there is the retroactive stripping of victories -- even though no evidence
exists that A) Any players would have failed that test and been ineligible
if not given answers, or B) That FSU would not have won those games had
those mostly marginal players not participated.

''The committee is just wrong,'' retiring FSU president T.K. Wetherell said.

It jars the mind to think that small-scale shenanigans involving a single
online music-history course would ruin what Bowden has worked a lifetime to
achieve.

Some tutor whispers ''Beethoven'' in a backup left guard's ear and college
football history is altered? That's dumb, and unnecessary. That's over the
top, and an abuse of power by the NCAA.

If the omnipotent ruling body wants to get tougher it could increase the
scholarship reductions, extend the probation or any number of other
measures, but why involve vacating wins when so few players were involved
and when no coaches or athletic-department officials were?

Letting Bowden off without any penalties - for all the illegal and shady stuff he hasdone - for all of these years - would be a great way to teach students, athletes, and other kids in the state of Florida - that you don't have to be responsible for your mistakes.

How this:

 

Pull it up on the computer and do a screen-capture?

 

Or, for the Luddites at FSU, pull it up on the computer and take a photo.

Please.please.try not to misunderestimate FSU!

 

p.s.  I'm sorry, Randy, but some things are too hard to resist in the
interest of good humor.

The FSU president resigns over this scandal and they want us to believe that
they are this dumb?  FSU is stalling on purpose.  Even FSU is not this dumb.
Their attorneys can not be this dumb.  

 

Games people play - better to act dumb than admit to a mistake
