The jersey might look ok if they did it as a trim around the collar and maybe even the sleeves (smaller amount of space) but I'm not a fan of designs that treat the shoulder and yoke of jerseys as highlight areas or areas to flash a separate color. And yes, those pants are awful. We would deserve the mockery we'd get from them.

Everywhere pales in comparison to the concentration of elite talent in the Miami metro area. Atlanta metro is clearly 2nd with L.A., DFW, Houston and West Palm (arguably part of Miami metro) being 3rd tier. Tampa and Orlando are easily in the next tier so in the top 10 of the most talent rich cities in the U.S.

Miami at #1, 3 more cities that are in the Top 10 and then add SW FL, Jacksonville and the Pensacola/Destin area all being in the top 25 metro recruiting areas. Then add all the remaining talent spread between Daytona, Gainesville, Ocala, Lake City, Brevard County (Cape Canaveral, Cocoa Beach, Titusville & Jupiter) and in random small towns all over the state. You can throw in Valdosta, Brunswick, Savanah and Mobile as part of the Florida in-state recruiting base too. Plus UF usually recruits well in NC, the mid Atlantic states and NYC.

There is an embarrassment of riches in the state that a good coach can easily pull and not even need to worry about all the kids poached by SEC schools, programs from other conferences and the s*!t ton of 3 stars that go to various programs all over the eastern half of the country every year. It's a huge built in advantage.

They should've never hired Napier, knowing their short fuse and everything. They should probably fire the admin that did the hiring. In fact, they should just gut the whole athletic department.

No sir.

We want them to keep the brain trust that hired napier.
We need to petition the ncaa to allow pruitt to take the reins there if needed. For no pay of course.
The arkansas state hc is a rising star.
bama has an offensive analyst who is being wasted by not being a hc…
Any of those 3 candidates would be perfect for the gators 😈

PCs were absolutely capable of doing music by the mid 80s, and no they did not take up warehouses. I was doing MIDI sequencing on an Atari ST in '86, controlling multiple rack based synthesizers we used in live performance with a band.

The founder of the seminal electronic band, Silver Apples, was from Knoxville. You don’t get Krautrock, 80s synth music, or anything else like it without his influence.

Knoxville not only has the best football, it’s also the dark cultural center of all great art.
