Holy hell... You guys ok?

Don't jump, you have your whole life ahead of you.

The rivalry game is going to be the worst of all time.

Hurricane fans are loving life I'm sure... Until Mario throws away a win.

True. 

I mean, if any UF or FSU fans croaked tomorrow, at least they can say they've seen their team win multiple Natty's.

To think what it would be like to be a lifelong fan of a program that never produced a single one. Jesus, the thought is simply embarrassing. 

Literally, it would be like being an Oregon fan. 

Yikes...

The best FL HS players are enticed to go out of state by NIL. Tallahassee is a small city with no real economic base to provide NIL money to athletes. UF is in better position but still can't compete against the big money schools. NIL and the transfer portal has ruined NCAA sports.

kids don’t deserve to get paid? How much money do they generate for the schools?

but..they get a free scholarship. sometimes.

 

basketball and football especially generates millions if not tens of millions annually.

In fact those are the only two sports that profit as far as I’m aware.

kids shouldn’t have to sit out a year to be eligible. Life, especially college, is too short.

NIL has always been a thing. Now it’s just regulated(kind of).

NIL has given others teams the ability to do what Bama and Georgia and USC and others have been doing under the table for decades.

Pay players.

Florida and Florida State have a ton of NIL money/boosters. 

Playing field is even now...

Sometimes you just gotta laugh at yourself. Right, Donkey?
