Since fall practice is underway and the Gators are playing exhibition games, I thought it would be good to get the discussion going about the upcoming season. #1 signing class in the nation, an upgrade at pitching coach, 2 quality portal transfers and a great returning corp of players has many people thinking this team has a decent shot at not only the SEC title, but the National Championship. Here are some links to bring everybody up to date:

I would imagine when Dane Key saw Lagway throwing bombs he must have said, damn, why not me? Key has played for one of the worst offenses in college football but still managed impressive stats. He would probably get over 1,000 yards playing with D.J.

First female Gator to win the award; adds to her many accomplishments

I’m in

Got so excited about this football team over the last six weeks I made a spur of the moment decision to drive down to the game.

If you’re going to the game today, it is Florida cold. Meaning it’ll be in the 60s but feel like it’s in the 40s because of the humidity keep that in mind as you dress. Feels a little cold in Gainesville this morning.

Let’s go gators

Anyone making the trip, still some pretty solid seats available?

@JasonHigdon we need to change the MLL to stand for Most Likely List to Most Likely to Leave list with all of this portaling going on.

TALLAHASSEE, FL-

In a shocking legal maneuver, attorneys representing Florida State University have added a count to their lawsuit against the ACC requesting the court to declare the school the official conference football champions without having to win a game in the 2024 season.

“It’s clear that FSU is so much better than the other ACC athletic members that we really shouldn’t have to actually go through the motions of proving it on the field,” said FSU Athletic Department Information Spokesperson, Red Bozonovich. “We’d prefer spending our time seeking a league that actually fits our stature rather than having to compete against lesser competition.”

The ACC declined to provide its initial response comment on the newly filed pleading. “We’re not going to comment on active litigation,” said ACC Member Competition Director, Giddy Laughowicz “All I can say at this time is that the other ACC football members are VERY glad they have the opportunity to play FSU in 2024, [Ha ha ha].”

The court has provided no indication whether the new filing would be accepted.
