Florida Gators (official thread)

We really need to appreciate how good we have it.

In the mid-late 2000s, USC and Florida were near annual challengers for NCs and recruiting juggernauts. They were, arguably, the top two programs in CFB and showed no signs of slowing down. Then Petey got caught and Urban burned out. They both have been mostly wandering in the wilderness since 2010.

USC: 95-54, 0 Conf Champs, on their 4th HC, 2 top-10 finishes, Unranked 6 times, 3-4 in Bowls
UF: 95-57, 0 Conf Champs, on their 4th HC, 3 top-10 finishes, Unranked 6 times, 6-4 in Bowls

USC finally got fed up and went out and hired a "name" coach while UF just rolled the dice again on Billy Napier.
Looks like that roll came up bust.
 
The rule used to be that only two of the three Florida schools could be relevant at any one time. I think that with the huge success of schools from all over the country coming in and taking FLA talent, I think it's down to one, and that one is Da U at the moment.
I wonder if the U has other big boosters besides life wallet because if not they might be short lived
