  Sorry, Sandy, I meant no disrespect, but when I grew up there, they were 
known for “pushing the envelope”, especially with the “long hair, hippie 
freaks”. 

  Every confrontation I had with them, they were mean bullies who were just 
itching for you to do ANYTHING that they could call “resisting”.

  I was at the game; didn't see anything or hear anything.  But I was on the 
first level, anyway...

  Careful what you say about TPD, here...I've got friends on the force. :-)

  (actually, I really do.)

Share Article 

Jan 3rd, 2011
By William Wallace 
Author's Twitter @WillWallaceSEC 



This will be the first game to bet in 2011.  I like the Gators -7, but I’m 
all in on one of these coaches dying during the game.  It’s an exotic.

Even before the game starts, Tirico and Gruden twice say Paterno is “Sharp 
as ever.”  This is the ageist version of “He’s very well spoken”.

14:58 1st 

Florida comes out in their all-white road uniforms.  Penn State comes out 
with their all-white football team.

The media is still confused as to why Kansas City Chiefs Offensive 
Coordinator Charlie Weis is leaving the NFL to take the same position at the 
college level.  I’m being told the hiring went something like this:

Will Muschamp:  “I know this is a long shot, I mean you are getting ready 
for the NFL playoffs and we’re getting ready for the Outback Bowl, so….

Charlie Weis:  “Let me stop you right there.  Did you say Outback Bowl?  
That’s the place with the Bloomin’ Onion right?  I’m your man.  Outback Bowl! 
That sounds delicious.”

Muschamp:  “Boom!”

14:01 1st 

John Brantley continues his quest to be the worst player in the history of 
college football with a terrible interception on his first pass attempts of the 
game.  In his defense, all his wide receivers apparently are also the QBs he’s 
competing with.  If they loaf a route, it just means more snaps behind center 
for them.

11:24 1st

Perfect weather in Tampa today.  72 and cloudless.  Sunburn likely will be 
factor for fair skinned Penn State late in the game.

Penn State capitalizes on the Brantley interception with a 6 yard TD Pass, 
Matthew McGloin to Derek Moye.

9:08 1st Penn State 7 Florida 0

Random ABC Shots of Joe Pa aimlessly roaming the sidelines: 4

7:45 1st

Florida goes 3 and out, which is a vast improvement from the last drive.

Joe Pa says the pirate ship in Tampa’s stadium reminds him of the boat he 
took to “The New World.”

6:25 1st 

Florida Safety Ahmad Black picks off McGloin and returns it all the way to 
the Penn State 15.  If there is anyone who can turn such a great opportunity 
into zero points it’s Steve Addazio and this Florida offense.

Random ABC Shots of Joe Pa aimlessly roaming the sidelines: 7

5:12 1st

Never failing to disappoint, Florida’s 3rd string QB Trey Burton fumbles 
into the endzone.  Urban pulls into the lead in the death pool.  Easy money.

2:20 1st

Florida’s offensive coordinator Steve Addazio was recently named the new 
head coach at Temple.  After the season he had I’m shocked he’s getting that 
opportunity.  When I heard Addazio was being considered for the Temple job I 
assumed it meant he was going to be a janitor at a synagogue.

Random ABC Shots of Joe Pa aimlessly roaming the sidelines: 10

1:12 1st

Florida does what it does best, the old Mike Pouncey shotgun snap misfire 
for an 18 yard loss.   With erratic throws like that Pouncey might work himself 
into Florida’s QB rotation.

Penn State 7 Florida 0 End of the 1st

How in the hell does ABC not have a microphone on Joe Pa?  I would love to 
hear what he’s yelling at Assistant coach Mike McQueary.  That poor redheaded 
bastard is taking a verbal beating from the old man.

13:25 2nd 

Matt McGloin throws his 2nd interception of the game.  It says he only 
threw 4 picks all season?  He might reach that mark before the half.

Florida starts the drive at Penn State’s 15.  Don’t be shocked if Florida 
punts from inside the redzone.

Omarius Hines takes a reverse 16 yards for a Touchdown.  Hey, Addazio, give 
this guy the ball more.  He’s built like a Navy Seal.

12:48 Penn State 7 Florida 7

I have nothing against Seattle. I've never been there, but I guess I've 
always assumed it is frigid there in the winter because it is far north. I 
was mainly just jabbing at Stacey, and since she never read it, it now 
seems moot.

Randy,

I don't know if you have ever spent any time in Seattle, but it is one of
the very few places on the West Coast that I would consider living.  It is
very clean, the weather is fantastic year round, the traffic is very well
planned, and the food is fantastic.  Because of the sea currents, the
climate is very mild in spite of its Northern latitude.  For example, the
highs this week are in the mid to high forties, while the lows are only 
39.

My family has been somewhere between Atlanta and Gainesville for about the same

  My family has lived in Florida since 1845, between Savannah and Gainesville 
since 1732, and it's going to take much more than cold, damp rainy weather, 
clean and good food to get us to leave this area.  A whole lot more.  

  We've been here so long, mosquitos don't bite us.

  And, nowhere else has the Gators.

Naw, I don't think so. I think as a whole Hog fans would rather lose
to a full-strength OSU than to listen to the whining that would follow
a "You Only Beat Us Because A, B, C, D and E didn't play!" Much like
the Texas (SPIT!) fans who whine that 'Bama only beat them because
they knocked McCoy out of the game. Uh huh. Sure.

Uncensored Play-by-Play Of The 2011 Outback Bowl 
Share Article 
Jan 3rd, 2011
By William Wallace 
Author's Twitter @WillWallaceSEC 
This will be the first game to bet in 2011.  I like the Gators -7, but I’m all 
in on one of these coaches dying during the game.  It’s an exotic.
Even before the game starts, Tirico and Gruden twice say Paterno is “Sharp as 
ever.”  This is the ageist version of “He’s very well spoken”.
14:58 1st 
Florida comes out in their all-white road uniforms.  Penn State comes out with 
their all-white football team.
The media is still confused as to why Kansas City Chiefs Offensive Coordinator 
Charlie Weis is leaving the NFL to take the same position at the college 
level.  
I’m being told the hiring went something like this:
Will Muschamp:  “I know this is a long shot, I mean you are getting ready for 
the NFL playoffs and we’re getting ready for the Outback Bowl, so….
Charlie Weis:  “Let me stop you right there.  Did you say Outback Bowl?  That’s 
the place with the Bloomin’ Onion right?  I’m your man.  Outback Bowl! That 
sounds delicious.”
Muschamp:  “Boom!”
14:01 1st 
John Brantley continues his quest to be the worst player in the history of 
college football with a terrible interception on his first pass attempts of the 
game.  In his defense, all his wide receivers apparently are also the QBs he’s 
competing with.  If they loaf a route, it just means more snaps behind center 
for them.
11:24 1st
Perfect weather in Tampa today.  72 and cloudless.  Sunburn likely will be 
factor for fair skinned Penn State late in the game.
Penn State capitalizes on the Brantley interception with a 6 yard TD Pass, 
Matthew McGloin to Derek Moye.
9:08 1st Penn State 7 Florida 0
Random ABC Shots of Joe Pa aimlessly roaming the sidelines: 4
7:45 1st
Florida goes 3 and out, which is a vast improvement from the last drive.
Joe Pa says the pirate ship in Tampa’s stadium reminds him of the boat he took 
to “The New World.”
6:25 1st 
Florida Safety Ahmad Black picks off McGloin and returns it all the way to the 
Penn State 15.  If there is anyone who can turn such a great opportunity into 
zero points it’s Steve Addazio and this Florida offense.
Random ABC Shots of Joe Pa aimlessly roaming the sidelines: 7
5:12 1st
Never failing to disappoint, Florida’s 3rd string QB Trey Burton fumbles into 
the endzone.  Urban pulls into the lead in the death pool.  Easy money.
2:20 1st
Florida’s offensive coordinator Steve Addazio was recently named the new head 
coach at Temple.  After the season he had I’m shocked he’s getting that 
opportunity.  When I heard Addazio was being considered for the Temple job I 
assumed it meant he was going to be a janitor at a synagogue.
Random ABC Shots of Joe Pa aimlessly roaming the sidelines: 10
1:12 1st
Florida does what it does best, the old Mike Pouncey shotgun snap misfire for 
an 
18 yard loss.   With erratic throws like that Pouncey might work himself into 
Florida’s QB rotation.
Penn State 7 Florida 0 End of the 1st
How in the hell does ABC not have a microphone on Joe Pa?  I would love to hear 
what he’s yelling at Assistant coach Mike McQueary.  That poor redheaded 
bastard 
is taking a verbal beating from the old man.
13:25 2nd 
Matt McGloin throws his 2nd interception of the game.  It says he only threw 4 
picks all season?  He might reach that mark before the half.
Florida starts the drive at Penn State’s 15.  Don’t be shocked if Florida punts 
from inside the redzone.
Omarius Hines takes a revers

Seattle is about the same latitude as where I live now.  Admittedly it was a

Seattle rarely gets much snow.  I just bought a big snow plow for my truck
to keep my driveways clear.

In the morning I am heading South for January.  I think I will skip it up
here this year.  Florida had better warm up!  I am going to the National
Home Builder's show and then to Lecanto to try to warm up a little.  I hope
Florida warms up soon!  I would love to be able to slip into the pool while

Hard to tell, since the SEC season starts this weekend.  If the Gators keep 
winning prices will be higher.  Certain games like Kentucky will be a tough 
ticket.  Consult Stubhub.

Seattle is about the same latitude as where I live now.  Admittedly it was a
very unusual December this past year, but we had only one day when the high
broke 32--New Year's Eve.  We will be hammered in January and February.
Seattle rarely gets much snow.  I just bought a big snow plow for my truck
to keep my driveways clear.

In the morning I am heading South for January.  I think I will skip it up
here this year.  Florida had better warm up!  I am going to the National
Home Builder's show and then to Lecanto to try to warm up a little.  I hope
Florida warms up soon!  I would love to be able to slip into the pool while
I am down there.

Jerry

P.S.  I hope to get to a ball game or two while I am down there.  (For my
Gainesville friends:  What are BB tickets going for these days?)

Ken I do agree this was a painful product to watch many times this year. As
I had remarked in an earlier post this was the first time since some of the
games in the Zook era that I actually turned off the TV and did something
else during a couple of games.

I would tend to agree that a coach wouldn't lose games to prove a point, but
when we continue to move sideline to sideline all year and never developed a
downfield threat, what is the answer.  All year long we heard Urban and
Coach Addazi (no O allowed), talk about how they wanted to get the ball to
the perimeter and use our speed.  Guess what?  Everyone has speed!  When you
watch Penn St. receivers beating our corners down the sideline, didn't you
wonder why we weren't capable of that?  There is no way they have more
athletic WRs or CBs.

There were things they could have done this year that would have eased the
pain.  They could have really modified the offense like in 2006, they could
have said thanks Johnny, but this isn't working and played Burton or Reed
all year.  The crap they did play was embarassing and quite frankly some of
the worst football I have ever seen.  In fact, if this team had played the
1979 Gators, I bet they would have been 1-9-1.

I just don't buy the notion that Urban Meyer or any coach for that matter
has such a big ego that they would lose 5 games just to prove a point. 
 
Let me be fair to Mike Gillislee, IMO he can be a serviceable SEC RB,
contribute to winning games, but will never be a feature #1 RB that gets the
majority of the carries and someone who the other team has to game plan for,
he is in the mold of Kestan Moore, solid but never great.

Interesting stats.  One thing is Gillislee's carries tended to come late in
a game, that could attribute to his high per carry average.  I am not saying
that Mike is an All American RB, just that we don't know because too many
people were touching the ball because they are either invested in the
program and/or might break a 70 yard run.  Yes, Urban has won a lot of games
and championships, but like other coaches we know, he has a huge ego and
will prove his system works, even if it means 5 losses...

I mean, look at 2006, yes the defense was much better that year, but Urban
and crew took their spread offense and adapted it to Leak's capabilities.
We didn't do that this year.

My gut tells me that this is right.

We all knew Emmitt was the real deal following his second game as a true
freshman.

We knew that Errict was not Emmitt, but was a worthy successor.

My brain looks up statistics.

UF  Career Rushing Leader: Yards per Carry

min: 300 attempts: Eli Williams (6.4)
min: 400 attempts: Tony Green (5.8)

Well, that wasn't what I expected.

Let's look at notable Freshmen:

James Jones: 4.4
Neal Anderson: 5.2
Emmitt Smith: 5.9
Errict Rhett: 5.7

Interestingly, those were the best single year averages for either Errict or
Emmitt.

Gillislee yards per carry: 5.6

Hmm. My gut doesn't even think he is in the same sentence as the Gator
legends. My brain wonders why he didn't get more carries.

Re: [gatortalk] Well... on one hand...

2011-01-04 Thread Stephen Manuel
I'd be interested in seeing the number of carries Gillislee has had vs Emmitt 
Smith and Errict Rhett when comparing their ypc. 


Emmitt's 5.9 ypc is truly amazing considering he was basically the entire 
offense...and teams still couldn't stop him consistently.

I know I fell for this, but it's sort of like being excited watching John 
Brantley in mop up time throwing darts all over the field then watching him 
this 
year, it was night and day...

Seattle is about the same latitude as where I live now.  Admittedly it was a
very unusual December this past year, but we had only one day when the high
broke 32--New Year's Eve.  We will be hammered in January and February.
Seattle rarely gets much snow.  I just bought a big snow plow for my truck
to keep my driveways clear.

In the morning I am heading South for January.  I think I will skip it up
here this year.  Florida had better warm up!  I am going to the National
Home Builder's show and then to Lecanto to try to warm up a little.  I hope
Florida warms up soon!  I would love to be able to slip into the pool while

RE: [gatortalk] Well... on one hand...

Interesting stats.  One thing is Gillislee's carries tended to come late in a game, that could attribute to his high per carry average.  I am not saying that Mike is an All American RB, just that we don't know because too many people were touching the ball because they are either invested in the program and/or might break a 70 yard run.  Yes, Urban has won a lot of games and championships, but like other coaches we know, he has a huge ego and will prove his system works, even if it means 5 losses...I mean, look at 2006, yes the defense was much better that year, but Urban and crew took their spread offense and adapted it to Leak's capabilities.  We didn't do that this year.Ken Kirkley

Maybe Meyer didn't think our OL was capable of consistently opening holes
for anyone.  The subject of the line having trouble with blocking schemes
kept coming up, everybody blamed it on giving Addazio too much extra work so
Urban could slack off.  Plus you had Pouncey's occasionally comical snaps.

I think Meyer didn't trust the line to block well enough for an RB.  But
maybe I'm wrong.

 

Anyone know if Bert is in New Orleans tonight cheering on his Hogs?

My gut tells me that this is right.

We all knew Emmitt was the real deal following his second game as a  
true freshman.


We knew that Errict was not Emmitt, but was a worthy successor.

My brain looks up statistics.

UF  Career Rushing Leader: Yards per Carry

min: 300 attempts: Eli Williams (6.4)
min: 400 attempts: Tony Green (5.8)

Well, that wasn't what I expected.

Let's look at notable Freshmen:

James Jones: 4.4
Neal Anderson: 5.2
Emmitt Smith: 5.9
Errict Rhett: 5.7

Interestingly, those were the best single year averages for either  
Errict or Emmitt.


Gillislee yards per carry: 5.6

Hmm. My gut doesn't even think he is in the same sentence as the  
Gator legends. My brain wonders why he didn't get more carries.

I think Gillislee has the potential to be a big-time back in a pro-style
offense. He's big enough to push through the line (but still needs another
20 lbs) and fast enough to break free. He also seems to have good vision and
a knack for finding holes on the rare occasion that he's given a chance. I
predict he'll have a big year next year. Remember, you heard it here first.
(Actually, no need to remember. If I'm right, I'll remind you. If I'm wrong,
I'd rather you forgot!)

We'll see what happens in the running game with a more pro oriented approach
and hopefully more aggressive  line play. Personally I don't think the
spread is very running back friendly so I'm looking for better things next
season. I also believe Drayton said as much when he left UF for Tn a couple
of years ago. I'm also not crazy about 170-190 lb scat back types as the
main ingredients in the running game.

himPlus his highly recruited freshman RB was injured and redshirted...

It's interesting we have both Barnhardt's and Bianchi's viewpoints. It could go 
either way. It might be an incredible disaster of egos or a team effort that 
proves to be a great success. The more I look at it the more I think it might 
work. Muschamp and Weis must have discussed their roles/personalities. If they 
didn't they're nuts!  

You're right in that there will be some bumps the first year, Stephen. But, 
after that, if they stay together as a staff, look out!  This could be a 
football whirlwind that catapults the Gators to unheard of success. 

That said, with the talent on the team, there shouldn't be too many bumps.

I agree, next year is going to have it's rough spots, completely changing
the system with the schedule being tougher would indicate that. 

However a few points, I didn't take from the article that Charlie Weis is
"the savior" of UF rather you have a guy that's never been a head coach
before, who specializes in defense taking over and going out and hiring a
guy who has an exceptional resume of coaching offense. 

On the surface that has to be a positive. 

Like Bianchi notes, based on their resumes, who would you rather have, Weis
or Addazio ??

Not saying history will repeat itself, but when Steve Spurrier arrived, we
completely changed the system and it worked really quickly

I love how Bianchi is inaugurating Weis as the savior of the UF

predetermining UGA as the Preseasons #1 favorite because they had an
NFL caliber QB.  Howd that work out?

I was the Director of the Department of Childrens' Services for Hillsborough 
County for 13 years and can attest that TPD is one of the most professional 
urban police departments in the country.  Of course, Hillsborough County 
Sheriff's Deparment is a bit more professional, but both are very good.

You can't shine if your coach prefers a different style of player and leaves 
you 
on the bench. I think Gillislee was great as a freshman. His yards per carry 
were excellent, and he tore it up whenever he was in the game in mop up duty, 
but he was lost in the rotation behind Meyer's ultra speedsters. Again this 
year, he was a solid producer whenever he played, but he had few opportunities 
and was behind an underperforming OL. I'm not saying he's the next Emmit Smith, 
but I think he can be as good as the feature backs currently playing for 
several 
other SEC teams. I'm looking forward to seeing what he can become under Weiss' 
system and I'm predicting that he will fit that offense well and see 
significant 
and productive playing time.

I think Gillislee has the potential to be a big-time back in a pro-style
offense. He's big enough to push through the line (but still needs another
20 lbs) and fast enough to break free. He also seems to have good vision and
a knack for finding holes on the rare occasion that he's given a chance. I
predict he'll have a big year next year. Remember, you heard it here first.

I was referring to this statement: "I just don't feel like rushing the most 
important decision of my life."

Whether or not to marry?  Have children.  Surgery?  Religion?  Type of burial?

I doubt that this will be the most important decision of his life.

forgive me for not being clear.  English is a tough language.

This will be the first game to bet in 2011.  I like the Gators -7, but
I'm all in on one of these coaches dying during the game.  It's an
exotic.

Even before the game starts, Tirico and Gruden twice say Paterno is
"Sharp as ever."  This is the ageist version of "He's very well spoken".

14:58 1st 

 
 Florida comes out in their all-white road uniforms.  Penn State comes
out with their all-white football team.

The media is still confused as to why Kansas City Chiefs Offensive
Coordinator Charlie Weis is leaving the NFL to take the same position at
the college level.  I'm being told the hiring went something like this:

Will Muschamp:  "I know this is a long shot, I mean you are getting
ready for the NFL playoffs and we're getting ready for the Outback Bowl,
so

Charlie Weis:  "Let me stop you right there.  Did you say Outback Bowl?
That's the place with the Bloomin' Onion right?  I'm your man.  Outback
Bowl! That sounds delicious."

Muschamp:  "Boom!"

14:01 1st 

John Brantley continues his quest to be the worst player in the history
of college football with a terrible interception on his first pass
attempts of the game.  In his defense, all his wide receivers apparently
are also the QBs he's competing with.  If they loaf a route, it just
means more snaps behind center for them.

11:24 1st

Perfect weather in Tampa today.  72 and cloudless.  Sunburn likely will
be factor for fair skinned Penn State late in the game.

Penn State capitalizes on the Brantley interception with a 6 yard TD
Pass, Matthew McGloin to Derek Moye.

9:08 1st Penn State 7 Florida 0

Random ABC Shots of Joe Pa aimlessly roaming the sidelines: 4

7:45 1st

Florida goes 3 and out, which is a vast improvement from the last drive.

Joe Pa says the pirate ship in Tampa's stadium reminds him of the boat
he took to "The New World."

6:25 1st 

Florida Safety Ahmad Black picks off McGloin and returns it all the way
to the Penn State 15.  If there is anyone who can turn such a great
opportunity into zero points it's Steve Addazio and this Florida
offense.

Random ABC Shots of Joe Pa aimlessly roaming the sidelines: 7

5:12 1st

Never failing to disappoint, Florida's 3rd string QB Trey Burton fumbles
into the endzone.  Urban pulls into the lead in the death pool.  Easy
money.

2:20 1st

Florida's offensive coordinator Steve Addazio was recently named the new
head coach at Temple.  After the season he had I'm shocked he's getting
that opportunity.  When I heard Addazio was being considered for the
Temple job I assumed it meant he was going to be a janitor at a
synagogue.

Random ABC Shots of Joe Pa aimlessly roaming the sidelines: 10

1:12 1st

Florida does what it does best, the old Mike Pouncey shotgun snap
misfire for an 18 yard loss.   With erratic throws like that Pouncey
might work himself into Florida's QB rotation.

Penn State 7 Florida 0 End of the 1st

How in the hell does ABC not have a microphone on Joe Pa?  I would love
to hear what he's yelling at Assistant coach Mike McQueary.  That poor
redheaded bastard is taking a verbal beating from the old man.

13:25 2nd 

Matt McGloin throws his 2nd interception of the game.  It says he only
threw 4 picks all season?  He might reach that mark before the half.

Florida starts the drive at Penn State's 15.  Don't be shocked if
Florida punts from inside the redzone.

Omarius Hines takes a reverse 16 yards for a Touchdown.  Hey, Addazio,
give this guy the ball more.  He's built like a Navy Seal.

12:48 Penn State 7 Florida 7

Seattle is about the same latitude as where I live now.  Admittedly it was a

The Gator crowd was actually a little more constrained in the beginning, the
Penn State people were really hyped up.  I think the Gator fans were
cautious to be excited because of how awful the offense had been this
season...and of course, as we all know, Johnny B threw an interception on
our first possession, so that may have taken the wind out of everyone's
sails (you know, that "Oh, geez - here we go again" feeling).  There were
more Gators than PSU fans there, but not tremendously more.  

We unfortunately were in the south end zone with the PSU fans and band, but
there wasn't any fan foolishness, outside of a PSU fan who shouted, "Go
home, Gators!"  

I was sorta like, "Dude, where do you think we are?"

It was great weather for a game and really, just about any seat at Raymond
James is pretty good - it's smaller than The Swamp (holds about 60k I think)
and the sightlines are pretty good everywhere.

Maybe you guys are right, I hope I'm wrong. 

 

IMO, Mike Gillislee will be nothing more than a serviceable SEC RB, who
teams will not have to worry about when game planning for the Gators.

Maybe he wasn't playing because the previous staff wanted to get the ball to
the perimeter and let the little fast guys run.  Maybe he wasn't playing
because the previous staff liked to award playing time to those who were
invested in the program.

 

I think Mike G. will be a star in a pro-style offense, he can run off
tackle, has enough speed to get to the corner and won't go down with an arm
tackle.  I think the offensive system has a ton to do with how well a RB
will play. Look at the James kid at Oregon, phenomenal college player,
probably won't be more than a kick returner in the NFL though.

But don't you have to ask yourself why he wasn't playing except in mop up
duty ?? Ask yourself, in similar situation would a Neal Anderson, JL
Williams, even Erictt Rhett or Fred Taylor been playing..??

 

I think Gillislee has a chance to be a serviceable SEC RB, maybe get 6-8
carries a game, but he has his work cut out for him. Besides Rainey and
Demps, you have Mac Brown and Mike Blakely he will be competing against
barring injury or position changes. 

 

I don't think he will ever be a 20-25 carries a game RB that has a chance to
go over 1000 yards in a season.

You can't shine if your coach prefers a different style of player and leaves
you on the bench. I think Gillislee was great as a freshman. His yards per
carry were excellent, and he tore it up whenever he was in the game in mop
up duty, but he was lost in the rotation behind Meyer's ultra speedsters.
Again this year, he was a solid producer whenever he played, but he had few
opportunities and was behind an underperforming OL. I'm not saying he's the
next Emmit Smith, but I think he can be as good as the feature backs
currently playing for several other SEC teams. I'm looking forward to seeing
what he can become under Weiss' system and I'm predicting that he will fit
that offense well and see significant and productive playing time.

I think Gillislee has the potential to be a big-time back in a pro-style
offense. He's big enough to push through the line (but still needs another
20 lbs) and fast enough to break free. He also seems to have good vision and
a knack for finding holes on the rare occasion that he's given a chance. I
predict he'll have a big year next year. Remember, you heard it here first.
(Actually, no need to remember. If I'm right, I'll remind you. If I'm wrong,

But, when you stop and think about it, he might just turn out to be a great

Ahh, the joys of small towns. 6 minutes to my office. All manner of
shops, restaurants, and shopping opportunities within 15 minutes--most
under 10. Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton are NOTHING like they were in
the 60' and 70'sToo bad.

Stacy,

I had no trouble getting in and out from the airport, to the port, and
to
Downtown.  Yes, the traffic was heavy but it was moving.  I can think of
many places in Florida where it is worse:  Tampa, Miami, Jacksonville,
Orlando.  I can also think of many other places like Washington DC,
Boston,
NYC, Pittsburgh, Charlotte, Atlanta ...  These are places that I have
personally driven a fair amount.

I, like you, prefer smaller towns.  It takes me almost three minutes
longer
to get to my office during rush hour.  Maybe I should move into town?

Ok, I will chime in since Randy was obviously baiting me!

First, I live 3 hours away from Seattle by car.  I think it is a nice
place
to visit, but there isn't enough money in the world to get me to live
there!
The traffic is horrible ( sorry Jerry - can't see what you are seeing
there), it rains a lot without the benefit of sunshine ( like in
Florida),
and it is very expensive.  Of course, my opinion is from the perspective
of
someone who prefers smaller towns as opposed to big cities.  Jerry is
correct- the food there is amazing.  As for the arts and entertainment,
there is plenty to do.  There is nothing quite like Pike Street Market,
in
my experience.  But Seattle is strictly a place I love to visit - and
not
frequently!!

If a national laboratory or military research outfit suddenly pops up in
Gainesville , let me know!  I will move there in a second! (-:  As it
stands, I have a pretty good gig here in the Tri-Cities, with family
nearby
and a relatively awesome job.  And to make it Gator related, I AM the
Gator
club out here.  Our little group of Gators watch all the games at my
house.
We sing "We Are The Boys" at the end of the 3rd quarter, and the alma
mater
at the end of the game.  I am needed up here to do my part in spreading
the
Gator tradition to all parts of the world!

Do I pass, Oliver? (-:

Stacey 

PS. I forgot to mention I live in the middle of excellent wine country,
and
nice but inexpensive golf courses!

Re: [gatortalk] Anyone aware of problems at the Outback Bowl?

2011-01-04 Thread sandra alonso
The Gator crowd was actually a little more constrained in the beginning, the
Penn State people were really hyped up.  I think the Gator fans were
cautious to be excited because of how awful the offense had been this
season...and of course, as we all know, Johnny B threw an interception on
our first possession, so that may have taken the wind out of everyone's
sails (you know, that "Oh, geez - here we go again" feeling).  There were
more Gators than PSU fans there, but not tremendously more.

We unfortunately were in the south end zone with the PSU fans and band, but
there wasn't any fan foolishness, outside of a PSU fan who shouted, "Go
home, Gators!"

I was sorta like, "Dude, where do you think we are?"

It was great weather for a game and really, just about any seat at Raymond
James is pretty good - it's smaller than The Swamp (holds about 60k I think)
and the sightlines are pretty good everywhere.

Or the reverse. Recall Denver creating All-Pros out of o.k. but not

There was one dude from UGa that had backed up Garrison Hearst his

I guess he's a Gator.  Anyone who remembers Charlie Pell's lap around the

Maybe he's been on our side all along, just attending Ga to gather

RE: [gatortalk] Well... on one hand...

2011-01-04 Thread ken
Maybe he wasn't playing because the previous staff wanted to get the ball to the perimeter and let the little fast guys run.  Maybe he wasn't playing because the previous staff liked to award playing time to those who were invested in the program.I think Mike G. will be a star in a pro-style offense, he can run off tackle, has enough speed to get to the corner and won't go down with an arm tackle.  I think the offensive system has a ton to do with how well a RB will play. Look at the James kid at Oregon, phenomenal college player, probably won't be more than a kick returner in the NFL though.Ken KMNGator

I agree, next year is going to have it's rough spots, completely changing
the system with the schedule being tougher would indicate that. 

However a few points, I didn't take from the article that Charlie Weis is
"the savior" of UF rather you have a guy that's never been a head coach
before, who specializes in defense taking over and going out and hiring a
guy who has an exceptional resume of coaching offense. 

On the surface that has to be a positive. 

Like Bianchi notes, based on their resumes, who would you rather have, Weis
or Addazio ??

Not saying history will repeat itself, but when Steve Spurrier arrived, we
completely changed the system and it worked really quickly

I love how Bianchi is inaugurating Weis as the savior of the UF

I agree, next year is going to have it's rough spots, completely changing
the system with the schedule being tougher would indicate that. 

However a few points, I didn't take from the article that Charlie Weis is
"the savior" of UF rather you have a guy that's never been a head coach
before, who specializes in defense taking over and going out and hiring a
guy who has an exceptional resume of coaching offense. 

On the surface that has to be a positive. 

Like Bianchi notes, based on their resumes, who would you rather have, Weis
or Addazio ??

Not saying history will repeat itself, but when Steve Spurrier arrived, we
completely changed the system and it worked really quickly

I love how Bianchi is inaugurating Weis as the savior of the UF
offense before he's even called a play.  Thats the equivilent to
predetermining UGA as the Preseasons #1 favorite because they had an
NFL caliber QB.  Howd that work out?

Im just sayin right now... be very cautious and very very level

It's interesting we have both Barnhardt's and Bianchi's viewpoints. It could go 
either way. It might be an incredible disaster of egos or a team effort that 
proves to be a great success. The more I look at it the more I think it might 
work. Muschamp and Weis must have discussed their roles/personalities. If they 
didn't they're nuts!  
You're right in that there will be some bumps the first year, Stephen. But, 
after that, if they stay together as a staff, look out!  This could be a 
football whirlwind that catapults the Gators to unheard of success. 
That said, with the talent on the team, there shouldn't be too many bumps.

But don't you have to ask yourself why he wasn't playing except in mop up
duty ?? Ask yourself, in similar situation would a Neal Anderson, JL
Williams, even Erictt Rhett or Fred Taylor been playing..??

 

I think Gillislee has a chance to be a serviceable SEC RB, maybe get 6-8
carries a game, but he has his work cut out for him. Besides Rainey and
Demps, you have Mac Brown and Mike Blakely he will be competing against
barring injury or position changes. 

 

I don't think he will ever be a 20-25 carries a game RB that has a chance to
go over 1000 yards in a season.

You can't shine if your coach prefers a different style of player and leaves
you on the bench. I think Gillislee was great as a freshman. His yards per
carry were excellent, and he tore it up whenever he was in the game in mop
up duty, but he was lost in the rotation behind Meyer's ultra speedsters.
Again this year, he was a solid producer whenever he played, but he had few
opportunities and was behind an underperforming OL. I'm not saying he's the
next Emmit Smith, but I think he can be as good as the feature backs
currently playing for several other SEC teams. I'm looking forward to seeing
what he can become under Weiss' system and I'm predicting that he will fit
that offense well and see significant and productive playing time.

I think Gillislee has the potential to be a big-time back in a pro-style
offense. He's big enough to push through the line (but still needs another
20 lbs) and fast enough to break free. He also seems to have good vision and
a knack for finding holes on the rare occasion that he's given a chance. I
predict he'll have a big year next year. Remember, you heard it here first.

We'll see what happens in the running game with a more pro oriented approach

season. I also believe Drayton said as much when he left UF for Tn a couple
of years ago. I'm also not crazy about 170-190 lb scat back types as the
main ingredients in the running game.

Ok, I will chime in since Randy was obviously baiting me!

First, I live 3 hours away from Seattle by car.  I think it is a nice place 
to visit, but there isn't enough money in the world to get me to live there! 
The traffic is horrible ( sorry Jerry - can't see what you are seeing 
there), it rains a lot without the benefit of sunshine ( like in Florida), 
and it is very expensive.  Of course, my opinion is from the perspective of 
someone who prefers smaller towns as opposed to big cities.  Jerry is 
correct- the food there is amazing.  As for the arts and entertainment, 
there is plenty to do.  There is nothing quite like Pike Street Market, in 
my experience.  But Seattle is strictly a place I love to visit - and not 
frequently!!


If a national laboratory or military research outfit suddenly pops up in 
Gainesville , let me know!  I will move there in a second! (-:  As it 
stands, I have a pretty good gig here in the Tri-Cities, with family nearby 
and a relatively awesome job.  And to make it Gator related, I AM the Gator 
club out here.  Our little group of Gators watch all the games at my house. 
We sing "We Are The Boys" at the end of the 3rd quarter, and the alma mater 
at the end of the game.  I am needed up here to do my part in spreading the 
Gator tradition to all parts of the world!


Do I pass, Oliver? (-:

Makes sense to me. Why would ANYONE want to live in Seattle when they can
live in Gainesville instead?

Anyone want to take a shot at that question? Anyone? :)

RE: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Bianchi: Will Muschamp pulls off coordinator coup at UF

2011-01-04 Thread Stephen Manuel
When SOS arrived, Donald Douglas was the starting QB the year before, of
course Shane Matthews came out of nowhere to be a great Qb, but no one can
honestly say they saw that comingplus Emmitt Smith had decided to leave
a year early. 

What SOS had was a very, very good defense coming back. 

We went 6-5 in 1989 and had a horrible bowl game to end the season against
Washington if I remember correctly, that was the game that Emmitt Smith took
himself out of and took the pads off before the game had ended. 

I think the program is much more stable now than when SOS took over.

Re: [gatortalk] Well... on one hand...

You can't shine if your coach prefers a different style of player and leaves 
you on the bench. I think Gillislee was great as a freshman. His yards per 
carry were excellent, and he tore it up whenever he was in the game in mop up 
duty, but he was lost in the rotation behind Meyer's ultra speedsters. Again 
this year, he was a solid producer whenever he played, but he had few 
opportunities and was behind an underperforming OL. I'm not saying he's the 
next Emmit Smith, but I think he can be as good as the feature backs currently 
playing for several other SEC teams. I'm looking forward to seeing what he can 
become under Weiss' system and I'm predicting that he will fit that offense 
well and see significant and productive playing time.

I have theory about RB's, barring injury, a truly great RB will be great
right away, if they take 2-3 years to develop they might be above average
but never great. I don't think coaching can teach Emmitt Smith how to run or
any of the other great RB's in UF history, I can't think of many that were
great after 2-3 years, most were great or very, very good right away..I
believe that holds for any offensive system the RB might be in.

I agree, next year is going to have it's rough spots, completely changing
the system with the schedule being tougher would indicate that. 

However a few points, I didn't take from the article that Charlie Weis is
"the savior" of UF rather you have a guy that's never been a head coach
before, who specializes in defense taking over and going out and hiring a
guy who has an exceptional resume of coaching offense. 

On the surface that has to be a positive. 

Like Bianchi notes, based on their resumes, who would you rather have, Weis
or Addazio ??

Not saying history will repeat itself, but when Steve Spurrier arrived, we
completely changed the system and it worked really quickly

I love how Bianchi is inaugurating Weis as the savior of the UF
offense before he's even called a play.  Thats the equivilent to
predetermining UGA as the Preseasons #1 favorite because they had an
NFL caliber QB.  Howd that work out?

Ok, I will chime in since Randy was obviously baiting me!

First, I live 3 hours away from Seattle by car.  I think it is a nice place 
to visit, but there isn't enough money in the world to get me to live there! 
The traffic is horrible ( sorry Jerry - can't see what you are seeing 
there), it rains a lot without the benefit of sunshine ( like in Florida), 
and it is very expensive.  Of course, my opinion is from the perspective of 
someone who prefers smaller towns as opposed to big cities.  Jerry is 
correct- the food there is amazing.  As for the arts and entertainment, 
there is plenty to do.  There is nothing quite like Pike Street Market, in 
my experience.  But Seattle is strictly a place I love to visit - and not 
frequently!!


If a national laboratory or military research outfit suddenly pops up in 
Gainesville , let me know!  I will move there in a second! (-:  As it 
stands, I have a pretty good gig here in the Tri-Cities, with family nearby 
and a relatively awesome job.  And to make it Gator related, I AM the Gator 
club out here.  Our little group of Gators watch all the games at my house. 
We sing "We Are The Boys" at the end of the 3rd quarter, and the alma mater 
at the end of the game.  I am needed up here to do my part in spreading the 
Gator tradition to all parts of the world!


Do I pass, Oliver? (-:

Stacey

PS. I forgot to mention I live in the middle of excellent wine country, and 
nice but inexpensive golf courses!

I have nothing against Seattle. I've never been there, but I guess I've 
always assumed it is frigid there in the winter because it is far north. I 
was mainly just jabbing at Stacey, and since she never read it, it now seems 
moot.


So... I'm not a Seattle hater. Someday, I will most likely get a chance to
