Point is if you measure all the talent and successful players on the U's teams and Uf's teams, guess who wins? yup THE U!

OK, so you measure a college programs success by how many pro athletes they generate? I can see that reasoning. Colleges will often quote stats about how many graduates of their institution have professional careers.

So while you scroll through pages of NFL rosters to see how many Michigan players are in the NFL, I'll go watch some highlights of our National Championship season. How long do you need to go back for a Michigan title? 10 or 11 years since you split with Nebraska?

You take the title for most players in the NFL over us, fine. We'll work on racking up NCG trophies. :D

Man, when Shockey was playing at the U, the program produced a lot more NFL first and second round draft picks than the Gators! Even when we had Larry aka the horrible coach-we still produced more NFL first and second round draft picks that have produced more than Gators football alumni. Point is if you measure all the talent and successful players on the U's teams and Uf's teams, guess who wins? yup THE U!

I will say this though-your program has turned the Gators into one most competetive programs in the country. The SEC is more powerful than the Big 10 now IMHO...that's because of Alabama, Florida, Georgia...some other programs that don't come to mind and the fact that Michigan and Ohio State's programs are getting worse and worse...Michigan with Rodriguez will be good but it will continue to take time

Oh, the 'Canes turned out very good talent, no doubt--Shockey, for example, is a skilled athlete. But some of them were and are pretty darn douchey.:D Coker's lack of discipline is one of the things that led the program to where it's been the past few years.

Greg, on that point I agree Coker did have no sense of discipline
