[Michigan Fan]

From the article:

Florida has won a national championship in each of the past seven years and captured 14 national team titles since 2009, the highest total in the country.

"Jeremy's amazing accomplishments as Athletics Director are well known, and the university is very grateful to him for the national championships, a winning sports program that is highly ranked year after year, and the growth of women's sports," Florida president Kent Fuchs said in a statement. "Jeremy also has a well-deserved reputation for recruiting the nation's most talented coaches and building an athletic association that is recognized as among the very best in the country."

Foley plans to consult with Fuchs during the search for a new athletic director but won't select his successor, a source told ESPN's Brett McMurphy.

Jeremy Foley has been nothing but class in his career at Florida. He once said if Ben Hill Griffin stadium didn't sell out for football, he would have cancel half the sports at Florida.

That can said for most of the football schools in the SEC.

Perhaps some have a hard time forgetting ten years of doing NOTHING extra for football. Then, while things have really turned around there (no choice) someone HAS to do something about the two nearby city schools paying players TWO THOUSAND a year more than we do. I know he isn't entirely in charge, but what the hell are we paying him so much for if he really can't do anything?

Transfer U already has a million advantages with their win at ALL costs philosophy, with the most disgraceful motley crew of coaches in the nation that their conniver has assembled;
