    Lagway Time

    First let me say that I LIKE Graham Mertz. I was all FOR his being QB-1 this season as DJ was carefully brought along, preparing for HIS eventual full assumption of the leading role. But things happen. Graham concussed in that disappointing LET down to open the season against Miami. DJ FORCED to...

    OGT 2024 Week 2: Florida Gators vs Samford Bulldogs 9/7/24

    Typed last night--but neglected to SEND: Ivy League QB transfer runs it in. Imagine: But for a couple of plays it's now 52-0 or BETTER. A lot of mistakes and sloppy play (and play CALLING), but it'll be "analyzed" wrongly, I suspect... Now, if we somehow manage to put a PROPER game and win...

    OGT 2024 Week 2: Florida Gators vs Samford Bulldogs 9/7/24

    Our "back bench reserves" are maybe still a cut above a by-now disheartened Samford squad. Just run the ball these last 2 minutes--if we score, we score, but don't intentionally rub it in. It ain't like we don't know what it's like to be overrated! These kids came to our house, played hard.

    Now just gotta stay healthy in time left. Let THEM run out the clock, if you can.

    OGT 2024 Week 2: Florida Gators vs Samford Bulldogs 9/7/24

    THAT is why NOT using Tre Wilson much has been silly tonight: 85 yard pass/run from scrimmage for touchdown. Lagway over 420 yards in his first start. Yeah, think we need to KEEP him.

    OGT 2024 Week 2: Florida Gators vs Samford Bulldogs 9/7/24

    You gotta be BAD sloppy against lowly competition to find 31-7 "a frustrating disappointment", but that's where we are at!

    OGT 2024 Week 2: Florida Gators vs Samford Bulldogs 9/7/24

    Never thought I'd say this, but as evidenced by the fact that he has logged the highest passing yards of any freshman QB in Gator history, DJ Lagway is the best young QB I have seen in a Gator uniform since TT. Meanwhile, Billy somehow screws up the whole deal and has to call a time out as they...

    OGT 2024 Week 2: Florida Gators vs Samford Bulldogs 9/7/24

    No one else saying anything. I guess that's fitting --what more is there to say? We should be up at least double that amount...and the reason we are NOT has a lot yo do with what we had to face and conclude LAST week: Our Coach has been slowly gathering talent, but he doesn't appear to know what...

    OGT 2024 Week 2: Florida Gators vs Samford Bulldogs 9/7/24

    The talent, size and speed differential SHOULD have us WAY ahead by now. Oh no! DJ takes a helmet-to-helmet shot--snd he's out on his feet. This could be a major disaster. Half almost over, Bout to punt it. If Lagway concussed, well, I don't even wanna talk about it. Should have been a...

    OGT 2024 Week 2: Florida Gators vs Samford Bulldogs 9/7/24

    A nice drive--all for nought. We can't even properly support our freshman QB. who has looked fine. And our D still looks like last year's model. Folks, I am going to shut up: It seems obvious that though we will still WIN this game, it will be just one of a VERY few such victories. This is STILL...

    Quarter One in the books. I have seen little that tells me that last week was the anomaly. I like what we are seeing of DJ--but we must consider the level of competition.

    OGT 2024 Week 2: Florida Gators vs Samford Bulldogs 9/7/24

    Well, I was determined not to say anything until we at least scored, hopefully first. That took longer than it should have (and another disappointing missed opportunity on their FIRST possession), so we will have to see...I mean, Samford HAS (and continues to) move the ball. I WON'T likely have...

    "IF..."

    Alright: "IF..." we are gonna "go there" at all in the FIRST place, "there" being the assumed starting point of general widespread deep dissatisfaction with who we are, WHERE we are as an assumed SEC "POWERHOUSE"--Hell, ALL assumptions and impressions of where we're at and where we're...

    2024 Week 1 Power Rankings

    Every now and then, even amongst all the self-contradictory BS. some wag comes up with a well-targeted turn of phrase. The latest such "meme" has surfaced in describing Strickland & Co. as having shown "an extended penchant for BLAND HIRES at the Coaching position". Caught my attention: In...

    2024 Week 1 Power Rankings

    That's probably a pretty good combination of realism and positivity; I was about as down/disappointed/disgusted as I've been. Even with this latest apparent misfire at Head Coach...Truth is, the more I think on it all since, the more I blame Strickland and the "old guard" power base that has...

    Flashback and Comparison: 2017 Florida vs Michigan and 2024 Florida vs Miami

    But above all, understand THIS: THE Gator squad I witnessed (on display nationally in THE SWAMP!) on Saturday was QUITE capable of coming out and LOSING to ANYONE... We come out in another "I'm not FEELING it"- frame-of-mind again and TRUST ME: This season could get away in a completely...

    Flashback and Comparison: 2017 Florida vs Michigan and 2024 Florida vs Miami

    You sure got THAT right, Lf... MIAMI was gonna be a "match-up well or ELSE" situation to start with, no matter WHAT! When you factor in all the historic, geographic, situational and inescapably EMOTIONAL factors that clearly existed and were building further as the actual GAME APPROACHED, all of...

    2024 Week 1 Power Rankings

    2, maybe 3 wins. After assessing our talent level coming in, plus our over-reliance on our "Gator insiders on-the-scene at practice" throughout Spring and Summer camps, I really thought we had a shot at 8 wins. Whatever level you rate Miami at now , however much of their demolishing of our...

    Losing Hope

    By the way, for another, perhaps more "starkly realistic", alternative "behind-the-scenes" perspective of where we are TRULY at with Napier, his buyout and how things are realistically more likely to play out as far as when and how he is likely to REALLY end up being "let go"" check out the...
