I was born & raised in Gainesville, FL. and still live here. Gator fans/admin, etc... was told "we need the ALL-1-FACILITY in order to compete for championships." Well, since the inception of the very cool "football only apartments and work out rooms," these Gators have NEVER LOOKED "SOFTER!" They're spoiled & living off of the past accomplishments of "REAL GATORS!" This was the most "embarrassed" I've been as a "Gator fan" since the Nebraska game (Natty game) at end of '95 football season. Coach Spurrier "made up for it" with a "National Championship" the next season in 1996. Florida (Danny Wonderful) won the Heisman Trophy and its 1st ever "Natty." So can Coach Billy Napier match that? I don't see it happening, unfortunately for Gator fans.

That's funny. The season just started, and you clowns are already talking off of your azzes. As the seasons, meaning from last season to the next 10 years, the elite schools will still remain elite. The schools who have traditionally ended up fighting for the major bowl appearances, and national championship placement, will continue to be the same teams. Yes, teams are losing their 2nd and 3rd string players to other schools after the first or second year of attendance, but the teams are also not investing as much foundation building on those players also. So, the more elite teams will slide by by drafting raw talent, and make it to the finish line puttering, but still at the finish line.

@@sethstine4698 - The major take back of using the portal is, you're getting 2nd and 3rd string players to play 1st and 2nd string roster positions that the last invested minimal coaching time on. It's no different than AAU football or even basketball. The players are coached to win that season; not coached to hone foundation of the position. So for NCAA level football, you could end up with a 3rd year player, with 1st year player's foundation. And now you're rushing to get him up to snuff. And if he's pretty much maxed his potential, you're kinda stuck with him until he quits, or can't make the cut the next season.

Shout-out to Clemson, YOU DESERVE EVERY LOSS YOU GET FOR THAT MENTALITY OF NOT PAYING PLAYERS THEIR SHARE, BECAUSE LAST I CHECK NO ONE WATCHES THE GAME FOR A COACH UNLESS IT PRIMETIME 😂

Dabo's days are numbered. With ZERO starts via the transfer portal since its inception, it's clear that Dabo's old school ways of coaching are truly outdated. I saw absolutely nothing out of them against a Georgia team that was missing a few key players. Granted, it was still a very good Georgia team even with the few missing starters. However, Clemson was thoroughly outplayed especially in the second half. Even with the low scoring first half it didn't appear the game was that competitive. I think if you see another 3 or 4 loss season for Clemson, you will see a mass exodus of players in the offseason. And, with that being said, I don't see Dabo being successful in getting transfers to commit to Clemson should he finally realize he has to go there. In truth, I don't see him keeping his coaching job with another 9-3 or 8-4 season. His coaching style and ways are outdated, and I think that is going to be his undoing with the program. College football has become a what have you done for me lately atmosphere. And, quite frankly, he hasn't done a whole lot since his two championship runs. That's the reality of it all like it or not.

Lol it's not people not understanding that it takes time to build a program. It's deion and his rabid fans not understanding that fact.

Klubnik didn't play well at all. The defense is legit, but when you get nothing from the offense, eventually, they tire out. Cade missed too many throws, the recievers were consistently being underthrown. Plays were out there to be made. QB has to play better.

Florida's new coach will thank Napier for the talent he left behind. Of course, if they pick another dud then it will be a repeat for the next two or three years. The state of Florida has enough top tier talent to supply three big-time programs plus UCF, USF, and the others. There is no reason for Florida to be a bottom feeder except for poor coaching,

It's over for Dabo. They went out and spent all of this money on offensive coordinator and it doesn't matter because of how Dabo runs the program. He refuses to evolve and it's his way or no way. The players that he used to get are going elsewhere. They don't need him. He needs them. I'm with Paul unless he changes it's over for Clemson.
