Let me just point out that 'improved' is a relative term. You wouldn't have to be very good to improve on Bowden's performance in the past decade. Add to it that there were major problems between the coaching factions and how much that can hurt a team, and I don't think it's really a stretch to say that coaching is likely to be improved at the SOW this year. The idea that they may be competitive with us this year, however, is a big stretch.

Re: [gatortalk] FW: [gatornews] AJC.com: Mr College Football
The problem they've had the last several years and continue to have is that their classes are top-heavy. They get a few great players, but no depth behind them. This past year they got Jeff Luc, Lamarcus Joyner, Christian Jones, and maybe a couple other players, but no one else all that awe-inspiring. The year before they got Jacobbi McDaniel, Greg Reid, Demonte McCallister, but no one else. I could go on and on through the years. Add in that their offensive line recruiting in general has been atrocious with the offensive scheme not matching the coaching or the players (Fisher runs a pro-type system, but Trickett coaches and recruits for a spread-type system) and you have present day F$U. They'll have to do a lot of upgrading on the OL (regardless of how many magazines rate them as the top OL in the country) and DL before they get much better. - Original Message - From: ke...@baldwinnc.com To: gatortalk@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2010 11:36:14 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: RE: [gatortalk] FW: [gatornews] AJC.com: Mr College Football They had so much infighting - players and subordinate employees did not know who to listen to.

They had so much infighting - players and subordinate employees did not know who to listen to. Everyone kind of picked a side or tried to hide.

I am not sure that F$U will give him enough time to be competitive with Florida. As my feeble mind remembers, Bobby was given quite a few years to beat Florida, but I doubt that Jimbo will get anywhere near that. In fact, I would say that he has at most four years to bring them up. I am not sure he will be able to do that in four years as long as Urban Meyer stays at Florida. For many years we had to try to compete with F$U with the leftovers from F$U and Miami's recruiting classes. Now F$U finds themselves in a similar position.

Thanks for the e-mails and information. It's too bad that they'll become competitive again. I see that Haggins is still there.

Its probably more of the "title game". Where they give you some big title to make you sound important. Kind of like everyone that works at a bank is vice president of something or another. Does it make sense to have the QB or WR coach specialize in passing plays? Does it make sense to have the RB or OL coach specialize in running plays? Or have the DL or LB coach specialize in stopping running plays? Hasn't this been going on for decades now - without special titles?

The departure of quarterback Nick Stephens, who was losing his first team snaps, is further confirmation that new Tennesseecoach Derek Dooley is in the process of changing the football culture back to something more stable and reliable than the blip of the Lane Kiffin area. The coaching staff pretty much knew Stephens was not going to be the guy, but at least he had played. They could have given him enough snaps to keep him in the program for insurance for this season. Whereas the Kiffin regime was all about selling Tennesseeas the Southern Cal of the East and as a spring board to the NFL, Dooley wants to create a more stable

But Gators look like the class of the SEC East again 9:04 am April 12, 2010, by Tony Barnhart It was a busy weekend of Spring Football. So what did we learn? 1. SEC East opponents who are expecting—or hoping—for a huge drop off at Floridamay be disappointed. Of course Floridawill not be as good this season as the past two seasons when the Gators went 26-2. The personnel losses—QB Tim Tebow, CB Joe Haden, DE Carlos Dunlap, LB Brandon Spikes, TE Aaron Hernandez—are just too great. But Floridaclearly has its quarterback in John Brantley, who completed 15 of 19 passes for 201 yards in the spring game. The Gators obviously have a lot of guys who can catch the ball like Andre Dubose, a big time recruit who sat out last season after hamstring surgery, Carl Moore and Chris Rainey. They have two options to run the “Tebow package” in Trey Burton and tight end Jordan Reed. Yes, there is a lot of work to do on defense. But when you look at the schedule, Floridawill be favored in every game it plays except for an Oct. 2 trip to Alabamaand possibly a Nov. 27 trip to Florida State. The rest of the SEC East has even more issues than the Gators. Somebody in that division, like Georgiaor South Carolina, is going to have to step up. Floridais coming back to the field this season, but not that much. 2. It’s official. Tennesseeis building for the long haul. Dave Hooker of the Knoxville News-Sentinel made this point over the weekend and I agree with it. The departure of quarterback Nick Stephens, who was losing his first team snaps, is further confirmation that new Tennesseecoach Derek Dooley is in the process of changing the football culture back to something more stable and reliable than the blip of the Lane Kiffin area. The coaching staff pretty much knew Stephens was not going to be the guy, but at least he had played. They could have given him enough snaps to keep him in the program for insurance for this season. Whereas the Kiffin regime was all about selling Tennesseeas the Southern Cal of the East and as a spring board to the NFL, Dooley wants to create a more stable environment and sell the entire experience at Tennessee: program, tradition, education, football, etc. I still think that approach can work with NFL obsessed teenagers and parents if it is sold correctly. But it is a long-term approach that requires patience. Will the Tennesseefans have patience? The Tennesseefans I talk to absolutely know the deal and are prepared for the struggle ahead. It will be an interest process to watch. 3. All Clemson can do is wait for June: This much seems pretty clear after Clemson’s spring game on Saturday. If Kyle Parker returns a

Getting rid of that evil, disgusting, lyin, cheatin, back stabbin, SOB Bowden was a first step for FSU. They are not back yet - but took the first step. They only went 4-4 in the ACC last year! Once they get back to going undefeated, or only losing one ACC game - will they beccome a contender again. But their recruiting was much improved. Coaching will be much improved.

Did Tony happen to read anything about the Orangeand Blue game? After John Brantley’s 47 yard pass on the first play from scrimmage, I’m convinced we’re going to be great again.

If Kyle Parker returns as the Tiger quarterback, Dabo Swinney’s bunch can win the ACC Atlantic division for the second straight year. Despite a practice schedule interrupted from time to time by his commitment to the Clemson baseball team, Parker completed seven of 15 passes for 75 yards in the spring game. The numbers don’t tell Parker’s story. His presence does. Parker is expected to have a big decision to make after the Major League Draft in June. If the up-front money is good, does he walk away from college football and turn the job over to redshirt freshman Tajh Boyd? Boyd, who was once committed to Tennessee, is going to be a very good quarterback. He just isn’t ready right now. 4. Stephen Garcia would be wise to do a lot of throwing—and a lot of thinking—this summer. As a third-year starter you would think that the light is starting to come on for
