what is this crapping the bed coming from, Florida has more NC's than any team in the conference and have done all of this in 9 years time.. They have actually had the most success in the conference, won the regular season title too and went undefeated and it's only been done twice... They are also the only team to go back 2 back since Duke in 91-92, they have had more success than anyone in the SEC in this time frame as a "football school".. when they are really both
You guys caught lightening in a bottle for two years. That's it.

So you are confirming a flash in the pan. A long flash but a flash non-the-less. When you have more than one coach win a title at your school come back and spout stats a little more. Be Good

LOL you forget one small detail in that time - BCG

of course, we try to forget him too, so that's fair

no one is spouting anything, im simply responding to the notion that Florida has somehow "crapped the bed" as an SEC team and asking why.. If they have been crapping the bed what the hell would you call the other teams in the conference in that time and even before that... Since 1999 the Gators have been to 9 sweet 16's, 7 elite 8's, four Final Fours, 3 NC game appearances and two NC's... that's a hell of a lot of success for any basketball school much less a football school in a football conference not named kentucky with much less talent. The only time Billy really had elite NBA level talent he went back 2 back with them... and doing it with multiple coaches doesn't really seem to matter, having the same coach there that long over 18 years is a hell of a feat.

You're trying hard, I give you that but I'm bored. Be Good...again...

how would that take anything away from what Florida did
it was supposed to be more tongue in cheek than anything -

doesn't take anything away from UF, just showing why UK wasn't in the mix during part of the time of y'alls ascendancy

Im not trying anything, you list the other teams that aren't shitting the bed in the conference that are faring better and i'd like to see it. Saying that Florida has crapped the bed is a very wrong term and big reach.

I mean i get it but either way kentucky wouldn't have much to do with what UF did in the tournament against all the other conferences teams unless they met in the Final Four...

You were saying. [winking]

I've got trouble buying into this team. If it makes me a bad fan in some eyes, that's their opinion. This team did a lot of good things today, Bam is finally playing with some attitude, and we found a way to win without a point guard. I'm just hesitant to believe in teams that struggle at home and have close calls with really bad teams late. I'm also not sure just how much better we are with a healthy roster anyway. Did Fox being out really hurt that much?

But at this point just lay it out there and win. What we saw today is probably this teams best 2nd half in months against a quality opponent. I'm not convinced that's enough.

can't agree entirely with your viewpoint - I'm a little more optimistic - but can understand where you're coming from. To be fair, even the 2015 team struggled some in SEC play.

that being said - there are still a lot of questions. Only time will tell if they can be answered.

Can't look at our flaws in a vacuum my friend. Everyone has issues they are working through.
