wlayton not the best situation for us, but this will definitely strengthen the SEC.

My original thoughts were Gary Patterson would stand a very good chance to land in Gainesville, for all the reasons that you mention above.

Remember a few years back when there was a lot of conversation about our head coach being replaced. One of the first names that you posted in the thread was Gary Patterson.

DWS, you ever return from the last bike ride?

Not certain if anyone saw/posted this article, but aside from the well thought out, well written, contemporaneous analogy, it's abundantly clear that the St. Richt spin machine is ramping up for post-season glitter and rainbows!!!!

Should the good skipper chart another bedwetting course in the Queen City, best brace yourself for a full court press of journalistic bloviating, the likes Faux News would be proud of!!!

Did read the article when it first came out NC_Dawg. A bit surprised that so many admitted to being fooled. So right about the spin machine. They are warming up, will come full force closer to LOI time.
