There has been no feud whatsoever; just a handful of gators running their mouths and the media trying to take those comments and turn them into a feud.
They can say what Kongbo said earlier this year. Come September 24 we'll destroy you.
Class means nothing in sports. The more aggressive person usually wins. And right now McElwain shows me he has the aggression to win.
Butch on the other hand looks like a wimp. And has extended his wimp behavior to the players. See what's happened to Kongbo since he stepped on campus.
They could say what Kongbo said.
Plenty of teams talk smack even if they're the ones that lost the last matchup.
It shows me someone who isn't afraid to raise the stakes on his upcoming performance. Tabor and McElwain have no problem building this matchup up. And no problem saying we're gonna win.
Butch on the other hand is scared to even say we're gonna win any games. And has extended this wimpish behavior to his team with how they skirt around any question dealing with Florida or expectations.
Its pathetic.
If it wasn't for the overwhelming talent of our players I would already have bet a ton off money on Florida to win this year. McElwain has the mindgame already won vs Butch Jones.
It does look weak. It looks like he's scared. He's scared to actually take on the bully eventhough he's the bigger stronger guy now.
Its quite pathetic.
If McElwain beats him again this year it'll show me this guy lacks the toughness to coach big time football.
Treyvon had a hard time keeping the offence going last year. Gators should be better than at end of last year, but i don't know if enough.JT just trying to talk himself into it, or truly believes the gators will never lose to the Vols again. I'm predicting they will lose to the Vols this year. And Tabor will be unable to do anything about it. And I'm sure the gators will give their all for their team and it just won't matter. We are an improving team, and until I see other wise the gators are on a downward spiral, maybe they will start better this year compared to how they ended last year.
That's cause nobody goes at Saban and Bama like this. If Ole Miss started talking like this about Bama, I'm sure the Bama players would respond.
Butch is making us look weak putting a lid on guys like Kongbo.
In 2013 Bo Wallace called out Alabama's defense, and implied their cornerbacks were average. Alabama simply shut them out
But the reason nobody talks trash to Alabama like they do to Tennessee is because nobody owns Alabama.

This game on September 24 will show us what Butch is made of. If he steps off the gas pedal once again and we barely beat these bums, we'll know he's not the answer.
Anything less than a blowout is unacceptable September 24. We're the better team. We're more talented. We're at home.
If Butch lets off the gas in this game I would demand he gets fired that night.

I'm no gator fan. But if we lose to Florida again I'll definitely jump off the Tennessee bandwagon until Butch Jones is gone.
The guy has no choice but to win September 24. Anything less and it's over for him in Knoxville.

If your jump includes a self-imposed cease and desist at volnation.com, you're creating a quandary for quite a few members.

It's nothing more than a difference in philosophy.
Some coaches think cockiness is simply the extension of confidence and the chirping on and off the field is just part of the swagger. They even encourage it. Based on his team and his own comments, it seems McElwain is one of those guys. He's certainly not the only one.
Other coaches see it as a distraction and part of self-discipline. If you can't control your mouth, then you can't your emotions and actions on and off the field.
There's no right or wrong, and none of it matters one bit. The only thing that matters is what goes down between the sidelines.
