2019 and 2022 Miami showed that without a capable offensive line, nothing else works. You can have prime Dan Marino or Michael Vick back there, throwing to Andre Johnson and Santana Moss with McGahee and Gore in the backfield…none of it matters. It will all be rendered null and void without a line.

Our OL wasn’t great but we had way bigger issues. WRs that could never create separation. Injuries to our RBs but most importantly we had a game plan that didn’t put the small semblance of talent we did have in positions to make plays. TVD was a 1st round talent going into the season and the coaching made him look like ****. At first I thought it was TVD being overrated and I believe that be a part of it but it became clear that coaching was the larger chunk here. You don’t get blown out by Middle Tenn and Duke at home and it’s the talent…

The recruiting is making people forget how trash the scheme was. But nevermind that in this thread. Back to the tears

2023 Gator offense. Just a center.

That offense needs A LOT of portal studs.

It’s going to be either Mertz or freshman Rashada throwing to no one proven with a bad OL blocking for them (Canes fans know what that looks like).

A lot of time left to get portal guys but right now that offense plus last year’s defense without the playmaking of AR is a 3-5 win team straight up.

Lmaoooo on the cool though, that season can end with us losing the last 4 after the bye too to UGA, Arky, @ LSU, @ Missouri, and FSU. Nasty work putting LSU late instead of the usual game before our bye week.

That @ Mizzou game always seems to give UF trouble

They done such a great job with recruiting with all those extra people, why not hire another thousand? Maybe they can get up to a 15 ranking.
 
I can't believe that NIL is being blamed for some teams getting top players.

The larger teams in the SEC, and a team or two from other conferences have been buying players for over 50 years. Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Nebraska, USC, UCLA, - and others in sporadic outbursts.

What's ****ing everyone off - it's NOW legal, and some teams - ATM, UM, and a few others are now in the game - and it's diluting those with decades-long elaborate player payments/cars/ and some even providing families house payments and jobs! Many just ways to conceal the buying and make it harder to detect.

So when ATM went full bore - when UM early on jumped on this new rule change - it ****es off everyone who can't compete financially - and it ****es off those with elaborate - but now obsolete systems for buying players.

And of course, we're all confident that UF never - EVER - had someone pay a player to come to UF . . .

No fan of notre dame but I don’t think they were dropping bags in the modern football era. USC stopped after Carrol left

If Notre Dame alumni wanted to be serious about bags, with their wealthy alumni base, they could do serious damage on the trail with it. Probably have the number one class each year. Different mentality there though.

Let me be more specific - ALUMNI. Alumni teams. Larger schools had more alumni to tag team each desired player. If it took four or five to meet the price - no problem - they could still fill a roster every year.

Not the Universities, themselves.
