Maybe in the general undergraduate population, but the football team clips along at a 51 percent grad rate (which is 10 points higher than my Minnesota Gophers, who also managed to win 6 fewer games than the Noles this year).
Yep.......yours is to be expected as young as Billy the Kid’s team is, however Billy G has had a terrible run of bad luck injury wise up here. That, plus the fact that he inherited a soft team that is not very talented puts the triple whammy on us.
I get so tired of hearing Dickie V (well, not now!) whine about how Tubby was “run out of town”, when anyone can look at our roster and realize how bare he left the cupboard.
So, do tell........Tebow IS going pro soon..........right? It is not going to be fun facing him/them in the East next 2 years.
We got the SEC covered, Free Shoes U is going down.
Go Big Blue!
It's great to be a Florida Gator!
What do you think the suspensions are about? It is doing the right thing for the right reason, regardless of the cost. That IS Bobby Bowden's value system. Your lack of understanding (whether its intentional or just ignorance) is radiant here, and you sound like a jerk, too.
Yeah, how's that Tom O'Brien thing working out for you this post-season?
I have to agree with you. Though it appears that there are many here who just hate either the ‘Noles or BB. I guess 15 straight years in the final top 5 and 2 National Championships will do that, though.
(Oh, were you serious???)
It’s his first season. So what?
Yep, Tebow, Harvin, Moody, are going to present a nightmare for SEC defenses next year.
Our student athletes must compete four years of intense studies.....advanced calculus, graduate level physics, electrical engineering, nuclear medicine, Aztec history, ancient Hindu literature...
No athlete graduates without a 3.5 in all of these core classes.
This is FSU and we make students before athletes.

The times they are a-changing.
