The biggest lie that everyone keeps saying is that “Florida needs to spend money if they want to win”. They HAVE BEEN spending money. Maybe not like Texas, Oregon or OSU but They’ve given Billy every resource and hire he’s asked for. They’ve been dropping bags just for recruits to visit as well as commit and sign. The problem is that ALL the money they’ve been investing has been in that Simple Jack Fraud Napier.

I had to make a thread on Swamp Gas about everything. I HAD TO

What disturbs me is….

1. DJ Lagway wasn’t gonna play Saturday; Napier had no plans to play him at all. Only reason why he played was because of Mertz injury. Nothing...

One thing I was told by my good friend who was there and I trust his observations… he said there was no energy on Uf sidelines… even before the game he didn’t see the same intensity that was coming from Miami… even Miamis coaches were giving off tons of energy like they were about to go play themselves.

The body language told him a lot from the players…. Even that some UF players seemed gassed in warmups. Now this is just his opinion and observation but it did seem to translate quickly into the game

Now that the “fog of war” has passed, did you see anything from your roster additions that really made you think you guys would be better than last year? I couldn’t name a difference maker on defense coming in after the kid went to Ole Miss and the only guy on offense was Wilson, but that’s not enough. Losing Ettienne was big because it leaves you with one good option at RB, but outside of that it’s bang average. I just didn’t see the net talent gain to compete. The only thing people said was “the swamp” but thats not an answer.

Told my lil bro the same thing. I wasn’t at the game but even after the Montrell TD, you would expect the stadium would be at an all time high but while it was loud, it was still a lil bit muted if you get my drift

I like Pup Howard (why we kept subbing him out for Derek Wingo/RJ Moten is BEYOND me), Badger (think he can be a 500ish yard WR for us), annnnnnnd thats it. Along the DL, it was pitiful except for James (24), Searcy (19 who provided SOME pass rush), and true freshmen Michai Boireau at DT & LJ McCray.

I’m DONE with Sapp, Boone, Watson, and Cam Jackson.

Yeah I had a discussion with a Gator fan who kept saying “ the swamp” would be the difference and I said no it won’t… he kept insisting how hard it was to play and win at Florida and I said yeah remember when it was hard to play and win at Miami? But that quickly disappeared when the lack of talent and bad coaching appeared

In today's game and practice preparation techniques, "crowd noise" is

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

overated.

Save that shizznizzle for a quart of chocomint ice cream and women watching lifetime channel movies.

Yawn. The MEN of Miami have no time for such nonsense.

Elite teams firing on all cylinders can take tbe very soul of the home field crowd.

I think Can and Miami coming right back with a touchdown of their own took the wind out of those sails. When Johnson scored on the long run my buddy and I both commented on how that’s going to give the fans hope in a game that they had nothing to cheer for. It’s disappointing when you dominate every facet and a single play makes the game seem a lot closer than it really was. Thankfully our guys stayed aggressive and put that little fire right out.
 
I think florida needs to be patience with Napier. My advice to the new president, take at least 2 or 3 years to gather all the information you need to make a inform decision. This is the proper way to handle this.

Sincerely, Canes Fans

PS. If you need help with this situation, please do not hesitate to reach out to Mr. Dmoney, or Mr.Cribby. Honestly, anybody on Canesinsight is qualified to help you remedy this situation.
