Greedy' Gators open spring hungry for more

"Remember the old line from Gordon Gekko, Michael Douglas' character in the 1987 film Wall Street?

The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right. Greed works.

That infamous line might as well be Florida's mantra on the football field next season. The Gators have won two of the last three BCS national championships, but they want another one.

"I got my championship ring last year, but some people on this team have two. Why stop there?" Florida junior cornerback Joe Haden said. "I guess we're greedy. We want more, and we've got the team to do it. So why not?"

The defending national champion Gators open spring practice on Wednesday, and they insist complacency is not a part of their vocabulary."

Greed may be good, but I don't like comparing my Gators to Gordon Gekko by taking up one of his most famous lines.

One thing I hope I don't see this fall like we did in 2007 is complacency. We can't afford to take two steps forward and three steps back.

More thoughts on spring practice starting today:
