We need your help @CoachJonSumrall@CoachTrautFB
Get rid of the new modern Gameday Swamp entrance and go back to the late great Jim Finch “here come the Gators” that’s shown here. This is how we did it for approx 20 years
Siena’s no subbing policy worked until it didn’t. Those guys had nothing left in the tank at the 10 minute mark.
And their big guy killed them on offense.
This is our worst season in decades.
Yet we still sell this place out and show up, best fans in the sport.
@ScottStricklin doesn't deserve us.
And honestly, what has John Sumrall done to deserve this.
We are going to hire Sumrall tomorrow and he’s going to get boat raced 5 days later by the weirdo Oklahoma St. hired. This is who we are now. 😭😭😭
I hate you so much Scott Stricklin.
This coaching search has been handled terribly by everyone involved with it. Feels like we’re now going to settle on whoever wants the job. Complete incompetence by the administration, and that’s really not a surprise.
Say NO to Sumrall! This is not a brand or statistical fit for Florida right now. (With no disrespect to former Kentucky LB Sumrall, but Florida's fanbase should not have to endure what is statistically likely to be Billy Napier part 2. 2x Sunbelt champ at Troy after Billy left for Florida. Took over at Tulane, where Willie Fritz won 12 games, and then 11. Sumrall won 9 in year 1, and is now 9-2 this year.)
The results between Napier and Sumrall are highly correlated. If you hire Jon Sumrall, you are statistically hiring a defensive-minded Billy Napier. Both coaches feature dominant G5 records with small average margins of victory and an unsustainably high win rate in close games.
