Florida Going 5-7 in 2012

[VolsSportsFan]

Oh how the mighty have fallen. Love it

I'd love it more if we didn't suck too.

 

[volfanCLT]

Yep, this really sucks.

5-7 is as good as it gets...definitely not used to this.

Perhaps you can tell me how you handled losing seasons so well the past three years.

Cheap liquor

Football becomes the worst thing in your life.

Football becomes the worst thing in your life.

Yet it's like an addiction and you can't stop watching. Self-inflicted torture

You start enjoying the small victories. You take nothing for granted.

A win against Austin Peay is fun. A win against WKU makes your day. A win against USC makes your week and you watch the replay over and over.

You're always looking forward to next year. Every commitment is a cause for celebration.

You get used to losing and hope to not get blown out because recruits are watching. You watch your rivals win NCs and get stronger and stronger every day. You take **** from rival fans on Facebook and at work, but you can't talk **** back, because your team sucks, and you know it and they know it.

You keep cheering and hoping for miracles and screaming at the top of your lungs, despite overwhelming evidence that you won't win because of deep and profound problems on your roster, coaching staff, and athletic department that might take 4-5 years to fix...and that's if you have the right coach in place.

That's how you handle it.

Or, you go on with your day because it's just a damn football game.

You really will get into basketball season a lot more. Lucky for you UF has a good program.

For us it was great until 2 years ago, but this season may be great again.

I don't think we have any room to talk. They went 11-2 last year. We have not done that since 2001

 

[golfballs]

But we're the 2nd best team in Tennessee, so we got that going for us...which is nice.

To be determined

Cuonzo is 3-0 vs. BDonovan

3 straight Elite 8s >>>> 3 regular season losses to Cuonzo Martin

Antonio Morrison out for the season.

Tyler Murphy rumored to be done for the season.

How has Cuonzo done in the NCAA's?

I was in Neyland Saturday (yeah it was that bad), what happened to Murphy and who is behind him?

Undefeated IIRC.

Boom! Take that.

Fire a coach. It provides instance short term relief that can eventually turn into long term.

He injured his throwing shoulder against LSU, and he hasn't been right since.

No zip, no accuracy and no time to throw because he's running for his life on passing downs.

If the rumors are true, we took your advice.

Word is Brent Pease is out...unconfirmed at this point, but people in the know aren't openly denying it.

I was generally aware we had some weaknesses this year at O-line, but I'm seriously wondering what in the Hell is going on with them. They can only strive at this point to rise to the level of "Putrid."

I'm waxing nostalgic about the Xavier Nixon era.
