You are absolutely correct. However, one of the great things about
Gatortalk is that we get to come in here and give our view points and
second
guess the coaches. Since the game was invented there has been someone
willing to expound their view point as to what is wrong or right with the
team. IMHO, that is part of being a fan. Look, I have no idea what is
going in practice and I believe that Meyer and Company know more about
this
team and the players than I ever will. But I do not participate on this
list to hear what Leon did in the big one (WWII), how far Jay rowed,
Oliver
ran, what my car looks like, or how much reefer I smoked back in the good
old days. I participate to talk football and sometimes that requires me
to
talk in less than positive light about my beloved Gators. I base my
opinions on what I see and read, the difference is if my opinions are
wrong
it doesn't get me fired, only insulted. I also know that I can't base my
opinion on one or two games to start the season, but I have seen enough
after 5 games to know that this year's OL is not playing as well as last
year's OL and yet 4 of the 5 starting linemen from last year's line return
this year. Your implied that Addazio is spread too thin, BTW, I believe
there is some merit to that opinion, and the OL has suffered because of
that. You believe that if Meyer thinks otherwise, and apparently he does,
then you can accept that because he knows more than everyone on Gatortalk
combined. Guess what, I feel the same way about my opinions as well. I
apologize if using the word vote offended you it was not my intention. My
intention was to let Zeb know that "I can accept whatever decision that
Coach Meyer chooses with regard to the OL situation, but if my opinion
were
to count for anything other than discussion fodder I would have the
tendency
to concur with your analysis".

I am not going to vote against the guys that have actually seen all of our
players in practice. If they feel that the OL lineup that we have now
gives
us the best chance to win, I am not going to presume that us
non-professionals who haven't seen one minute of practice know better.
With that said, I am just as concerned as everyone else. The OL has not
performed up to expectations and I expect that our coaches will address.
My
feeling is that Addazio is spread too thin and we need him to be coaching
the OL full time. However, if Urban thinks that he needs to continue to
do
both, I accept that because I am convinced that he knows more than
everyone
on gatortalk combined.

Something is failing. All can be fixed. Play calling leaves something

issues... they don't look prepared, they are not clicking, they are not
reaching their potential-- yet!
At least two of our OL are playing positions that they had never played
before this season; Pouncey at C and Nixon at LT (?).
I say move everyone back to their traditional positions and put in the
back-up center.
