Wow. "One of the best starters."

 

[37620VOL]

Seems strange that 2 would just pop up at the same time. One staff, one player.

Almost has to be Al Wilson - he was the only defensive captain and starter on the NC team --- pretty sad if Al had to sell off his ring

But from the description we don't know if they were a SR. in 1998. They could have been a starter on that team but not a SR.

Edit...I wonder if it is Dwayne Goodrich? He was a 3 year starter and captain in 1999.

Is there a rule you have to mark out the players name in the picture of the ring or something?

Could be it looks like a long name covered up on that COA that is pictured (and it was sold in 2000)

They do it for "privacy"

It never fails to crack me up that Butch had Gator Bowl instead of Taxslayer Bowl on the rings as if the Gator Bowl is relevant to anything.

You mean to tell me that “Champions of Life” rings weren’t given out at the end of 2016?

Wasn’t the term coined in 2017?

I believe it was after UF beat LSU in Nov. '16 to ensure the Gators were going to the SEC CG. When asked about falling short of getting to ATL Butch answered with the legendary line.

Somebody missed the boat, mass emailing, or a text on my part? (They’re all a thing, aren’t they?) I missed things a lot.
