I don't see the upside for Coker and the Canes, at all. The Defense is nowhere where it used to be and skill players seem to have fewer well-developed fundamentals.

Also, my earlier post said Florida was one of the top athletic programs in the last 10 yrs. And they are. Athletic program does not = football only.
Well that's why I asked you, if you were only talking about football, seeing as how this is the college football forum. I really don't care what UF does in women's soccer, I just look forward to them losing to the Canes like clockwork.
I don't know how you say that our defense isn't what it used to be. That's a very, very ignorant statement. The safety combo we have now is one of the best college football will ever see. I think they'll both be top 10 picks (meriweather and kenny phillips). Willie Williams should be back in there, and we have solid OLB's again. Our defensive line is solid again..anchored by Baraka Atkins..also a future first rounder. If our offense picks up under the new OC, the glory days are back. Kyle Wright is an outstanding QB, who needs to work on getting rid of the ball quicker. Our receivers are talented, but they also have work to do. We're coming back with some great talent at RB with moss, jones, johnson, and thomas. Great recruiting class in RB too. The only real question is offensive line, and with reggie youngblood coming up, and some new talent, they shouldn't be too bad. The new o-line coach is a phenom also. We'll do better than the gators this year...I guarantee it.
