Title: Article on the downfall of UF under Meyer flead from the swamp Post by: BanditVol on September 17, 2015, 09:13:31 EDT http://mudlizard.com/swamp/#2635765
Some lines should just never be forgotten. So I will say it for BDV..."TOP 1% of 1%"!!!! Of thugs, apparently. :rotfl: But the unrelenting drive that thrust the Gators into college football folklore proved unsustainable. A brilliant coach lost his fire. Fights once born of intense competition became sparked by contempt and disrespect. A culture of favoritism was perceived by many, and combined with myriad off-field issues, it slowly eroded the program's foundation. The wheels began to come off in 2010, when Meyer had one foot out the door and a brash freshman class regularly clashed with upperclassmen. Muschamp, the former defensive coordinator at Texas, made strides in cleaning up the image of a program that endured more than 30 player arrests during Meyer's tenure, but Florida's reputation for high-octane offense fizzled on his watch.

No big suprise, though the media made it out to be all rainbows and unicorns between Timmy and his band of thugs.
BTW, wasn't Jeremy Fowler the same writer that herban publicly singled out as a "bad guy"? I guess payback's a bitch. :laugh: What should go down as herban's lasting legacy at UF has been largely ignored, and I find it baffling. In the police report of the 2007 shooting in Gainesville, an eyewitness was about finger Aaron Hernadez, but then recanted, coincidentally right after AH lawyer'd up. It doesn't take a huge leap in logic to figure that guy was bought off. That was the chance to convict AH, lock him up, and get him off the street. Of course they didn't, and we all know what he would go on to do in the proceeding years. http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/9446754/mass-police-investigate-aaron-hernandez-possible-role-2007-gainesville-shooting-according-sources IMO, those murders aren't just on AH, but also those who, in the name of winning football games, saw to it that justice WASN'T served back in 2007. It amazes me that herban is still employed after that police report came out. Actually, no. No it doesn't. :frown: |
