Man watching this UF vs FSU games makes it really show that we just dont have the athletes like they do.

Reminds me of those early 2000 games. I miss this.

Are you basing that on bc FSU is not "lighting up" UFs defense, which is one of the best in the NCAA

Talking about every year for the past three. FSU has been led by their defense. Never take a Florida or Texas coach out of Florida or Texas unless they're winning national titles. Ohio and Georgia are similar. They have the best in state talent, so if they aren't doing amazing, there is no reason to believe they'll do better when you take them out of a talent rich state.

Not to come off rude, but you act as if they aren't other teams recruiting those same people, recruiting isn't like it used to be, (except for Texas) They are so many top programs recruiting in UF. Prozimity to home isnt AS important as some make it out to be... If you are beating the other FL teams and competing for the Nat'l title, Im impressed.

You're saying there is no advantage to being in the best high school football states? There is no way Fisher or Tressel or Richt or Muschamp would have better recruiting classes at Tennessee than where they are now.

TN has better facilities and a better "recuriting budget" than all of the above,

Fisher has a established connections in FL and the south east. He would be able to recruit better than what we have had the past 6 years I promise you that.

I hate a lot of things about WIll Muschamp, But UF seems to find a way to win these games this year. (not over yet i know.)

He is a better coach than I initially thought.

You're downplaying the in state advantage BIG time. Fisher would have nowhere near as good of classes as he's had and squandered at FSU.

I guess we just disagree but I just think Tenn is close enough to a lot of major talent beds, and add then into the incredible facilities and stuff you can pull top 10 class here. Hell we have sucked the past 5 years and are around the top 15.

I understand that we cant pick players out of our "back yard" But we are close to Atlanta,NC,Ohio,SC and decently close to upper FL.

I agree. I was wrong about him. Last year, I thought he was a complete clown. The guy is a competitor though. He gives an F. He will get it done there. Of course, it doesn't hurt to be in Florida. Things are easier there ever since Spurrier's reign, but still. Zook couldn't get it done. Muschamp is a hoss. I just hope we can find someone to out-hoss him. We'll see.
