Title: Matt Elam got trolled by his own coaches Post by: ReVOLver on September 20, 2011, 04:16:05 EDT http://espn.go.com/blog/sec/post/_/id/28428/gators-secondary-fueled-by-vols-poster
If any of our WRs said incendiary things last week, it didn't make the media. The UF coaches hedged some stuff to get the secondary motivated. Frankly, I don't think Matt Elam and the rest of the Gator secondary had that good of a day, and they talked as much trash as Da'Rick or anyone else did on the field. Also Aschoff sucks because he reports the "quote" in one breath and then says that nobody knows the origin of the quote but makes no effort to prove or disprove it.

They SUCKED. The gators did not win because of their secondary. They got called for PI SIX TIMES, holding at least once, dropped numerous (according to Muschamp five, but I only saw three) likely interceptions, and even when our best WR went down EARLY, they STILL could not stop us! Memo to Matt Elam. SHUT THE fizzle UP. You suck. Your team won IN SPITE of you. Do something first, and THEN you can talk. In the meantime tuck your tail between your legs and cower in the corner cause you did not do shizzle on Saturday. Your team won in spite of you.

That's obviously on the strength of games against the first two weak opponents. They did not have a good day vs. UT. Every other UF unit did though. What I hate is how the UF coaching staff manufactured trash talk where there wasn't any. They took innocent quotes and twisted them and fed them to their players. There are other ways to motivate players.

They took innocent quotes and twisted them and fed them to their players. There are other ways to motivate players. Exactly. And the end result is stories showing up on news sites like ESPN about how UT players talked trash when the players were extraordinarily disciplined leading up to this game. Of course, as you pointed out in the original post, part of that goes on the ESPN writer for just repeating what he was spoon-fed without bothering to verify it. |
