HAHAHAHAHA

I don't think I could watch Chucky screaming and hollering at 19-year olds like he did millionaires when he was with the Bucs/Raiders.

Imagine his nose all wrinkled up and that fire in his eyes should someone muff a kick or put it on the turf. I don't know if that's appropriate, and it's DEFINITELY not something Buckeye fans are used to after a decade of Tressel.

I want Luke to succeed as much as anyone.

The only replacement if he tripped would be Urban.

After listening to Urban go on about how, Braxton Miller left alone on the side line, was being ruined, it amazed me how gracefully the QB situation was handled. Miller was taking in the experience of his first game, but he certainly wasn't pouting.

When Miller took over in the second half, Joe B appeared to be just delighted with everything. When he and Braxton interacted, they genuinely appeared to be best friends. Me, I think the coaching staff had a lot to do with that.

I hate to be this honest, but by the second half, I was asking myself; What did Urban accomplish at UF after Ron Zook's recruits were gone?

Similarly, a UF fan could ask "What did Tress accomplish after Coop's recruits were gone?"

Well... a lot, but his brightest moment was nearly ALL Cooper's guys and one freshman.

But I wouldn't say that, as Tress was successful with his own players. BCS victories are impressive. Similarly, in 2009 UF with Urban did not win the repeat Crystal, but we were AP #1 for most of the year, did win every game but the SECCG to the eventual BCSNC, we crushed the robertcats in the Sugar, and finished #3.

Looking at that '09 defense, we had Hill, Wright, Black, Jenkins, Hayden, Spikes, AJ, and Stamper at lb, with Dunlap, Howard and Cunningham up front. I think the were all Urban's guys...unless I missed a redshirt.

Zook had squat to do with anything that year. Tress and Urban's 09 BCS success were their own.

When Fickell keeps winning, give him some props for using whatever talent he was given. Richt has the second best recruiting of the DECADE and just lost to the ponies. Give the coach who wins props for that victory.

By that I'm assuming you're having fun with the bobcats name. I was unaware that Florida played Ohio University in the Sugar bowl in 09. :tongue2:

I sure would like to see Coach Fickell come back for next year. Bringing Vrable aboad was one smart move. I liked his answers in the press conference
and you know he going to get better with each game. Only time will tell i think.

I really hate this argument. Is he a recruiter or a coach? What does it mater who's guys you have, if you can mold them into a winning team, you are a good coach. Ron Zook had two of the top recruiting classes his first two years at Illinois and he did nothing with them.

By the way I think Urban went 13-1 in 2009. I would have to say these were mostly all his recruits, but I could be wrong.
