Re: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] [SUN]: UF notebook: C’yontai Lewis and Jeremi Powell may return

I have no actual knowledge of it, but there is something odd about how vague they are being about him. Remember that he, too, started missing field goals again just before his injury. It could be that his injury was why he started missing again (trying to push through it and that affected his

Re: [gatortalk] Grier

That was a bold call on the Ole Miss game, Oliver, and I apologize for chuckling when I read it. I'm sticking with you this week. Fournette rushes for under 50 yards, Treon plays the game of his life, and the Gators win by 20. Go Gators!!! > On Oct 13, 2015, at 4:39 PM, Oliver Barry

Re: [gatortalk] Grier

Yeah, that's where we are alright. I think Woody's right about the appeal, so from a fan's perspective it's just as if Grier were out for the season with an injury. The team needs to move on and so do the fans. Let's hope Will grows up, learns from this very hard lesson, and can still be part

[gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Spurrier retiring effective immediately

What a sucky day! I'm still in a bit of shock on the Grier news... not knowing whether to feel sorry for a kid who inadvertently took something technically prohibited, or ticked off at a kid who thought he could pull off a performance enhancing regimen without getting caught. The SOS news

Re: [gatortalk] Fwd: [gatornews] Butch Jones on loss to Gators: We were one play away

If true, he could potentially lose his buyout. And it could be just the excuse they would be looking for if they wanted to make a change, but didn't want to seem like they hadn't given him a real chance. > On Oct 8, 2015, at 2:31 PM, Woody wrote: > > yea well..

Re: [gatortalk] Did I dream what happened last night?

Yeah, seriously, this is what Muschamp has done, even to the fans. He crushed out spirits. I found myself not really believing what I was seeing, just waiting for us to screw up because we all know that the Gators suck on offense. It's where talented prep QBs go for their dreams to die. Then I

Re: [gatortalk] that's what I'm talkin' 'bout Willis!

The ambulance has left and the defibrillator worked. Now I can celebrate! The way we played all day, I did not see that coming. It's almost enough to make you feel sorry for Tennessee fans... okay, not really. Go Gators! Rob > On Sep 26, 2015, at 7:41 PM, 'Stacey Hartley-McBride' via

[gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] [SUN]: Young Gators gaining experience

It made me cringe to hear one of our offensive players repeating that old line of Muschamp's that, in my mind, exemplifies everything that was wrong with the offense during his time as head coach. It's really not good enough to get just one more point when you are playing one of the weaker

Re: [gatortalk] McElwain names Grier Starter

I had to laugh at the responses of people to the tweet (good decision coach... yeah, he looked good... etc.), as if this held any significance beyond the obvious that Coach Mac still hasn't made a decision. Coach said he would probably do the same thing this week, but reverse the order and he's
