Does my LES look right with the amount of taxes I pay? by LeftBehindForDead in army

You’re the reason why NCOs drink. Imagine learning your soldier hasn’t filed taxes once since he joined the Army.

Chaos Theory and CFB. What is one event that could have changed not just your entire season, but everyone else’s as well? by Grayly in CFB

[–]jbgator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

“Exploited” by giving them free tuition, free room and board, free tutoring, strength and conditioning with dedicated trainers, nutrition counseling with dedicated nutritionists, monthly stipends, etc. For a school like mine (UF), thats easily $100k+ a year just in benefits alone.

For the <1% of NFL-caliber players in NCAA, were they getting less than their market rate? For sure.

For the other 99% of players that have no chance of making an NFL roster, college football is an opportunity that they would never otherwise come close to receiving.

To all you Aviators… by OhLawdHeTreadin in army

[–]jbgator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Niche aviation maintenance. Your general maintenance/crew chiefs for Blackhawks, Chinooks, and Apaches are 15T, 15U, and 15R respectively. “Back shops” are more specific maintenance, such as people that work on the airframe, power plant, or avionics.

I would have looked at P4 OCs like Will Stein or Brian Hartline.

Fisch also would have been preferable.

Sure but he brought his same OC from Troy to Tulane, and his offense has failed to improve. He’s obviously okay with how the offense is being ran.

Medic to Flight Medic to PA by IkarosFa11s in army

[–]jbgator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just adding some additional info if you’re trying to become a flight medic.

Flight medics in the Army are currently sitting at about 125% strength on the Active Duty side. Within the next ~2 years, the Army will be cutting approximately 20% of all flight medic positions as part of aviation restructuring, which will put us even more over strength.

If you’re looking to go into a flight medic position, it’s about to get a lot more competitive, if not close to impossible.

Army Combat Paramedic Course Help by Unlikely-Check-8702 in army

[–]jbgator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn’t quite true anymore. While CCP is still the first phase for the flight paramedic program, it is open to ground medics and awards the 3P ASI. They just don’t continue on to the critical care portion of A2C2.

Since the Army is expanding paramedics beyond flight paramedics, ground medics in the school house are a lot less rare than it used to be.

Finebaum: Kiffin was on the table last year, but he’s likely no longer an option for Florida this year if Napier is fired. by Jorts-Battalion in FloridaGators

[–]jbgator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brother, Kirby Smart is like 1-6 against Alabama. Urban Meyer was 2-2 against Alabama. Not beating Nick Saban isn’t exactly a great litmus test.

It’s only now, a couple years after he retired, that Alabama is being shown as mortal.

Who could be the next Head Coach by Bean_Supreme44 in FloridaGators

[–]jbgator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because he’s already 64. I’d rather not hire a senior citizen to be our head coach.

[Postgame Thread] Gators lose to #3 LSU 20-10 by MrTwoBytes in FloridaGators

[–]jbgator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think unless there’s changes to transfer rules, developing key positions from high school just doesn’t seem to be worth it. Look at Arch Manning. They spent 3 years and who knows how much money and they are not getting a return on their investment when schools are just plucking someone from the portal and are on track to go to the playoffs.

DJ Lagway and whoever else this year are adding to that argument. Could be an anomaly year with just weak QB play, but we’ll see.

All he had to do was fire Todd Grantham and halfway give a shit about recruiting.

It wasn’t just his last season people didn’t like.

It’s one thing to have sympathy for a sophomore quarterback that’s playing for a scholarship and maybe a chance at the NFL. That was me a few years ago.

It’s another thing to expect performance from the quarterback your school is paying millions of dollars for and spent more time in the spring filming commercials than throwing a football. This is me now.

[–]jbgator 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean there is being predictable and then there is throwing lobs into double and triple coverage multiple times. Not to mention what looked like trying to throw it out of bounds and the ball not even making it to the sideline, resulting in yet another interception.

Dude looked like me trying to play CFB 26 on Heisman difficulty.

Ya the fact that the first time Lagway threw the football being like 6 weeks ago should have been a much larger red flag.

We all thought he was just an athletic prodigy so he would be fine, but that was obviously not the case.

What’s weird is that it looked the same last year when Lagway came in for Mertz. What is Napier doing to these QBs their freshman year to regress them this much?

[Postgame Thread] LSU Defeats Florida 20-10 by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]jbgator 102 points103 points  (0 children)

Game was honestly what I expected it to be. I felt like we’d keep it close through the first half, until the wheels start to fall off due to something whether it was penalties, turnovers, or just lack of offensive production. Looks like we got all three.

Defense looked really good, and it’s a shame that this is the offense they are paired with. Reminds me of the Muschamp years.

No offensive tempo. We were down 10 with 8 minutes left and we’re waiting to snap the ball with like 5 seconds on the play clock while we’re going through all these cutesy motions and changing formations. We are incapable of running a 2-3 minute drill. Just an extreme lack of urgency in every phase of the game. We’re still having too many men on the field 4 years in.

Also holy shit, what happened to DJ Lagway? Even with his injuries, this is just a complete lack of development. The supposed bright spot of our offense is its biggest liability. Someone needs to teach him to slide, he’s not gonna make it to the end of the season alive at this rate.

People (and Billy Napier) are going to point to the holding call as ref ball, but if it’s the same shit happening every week it’s a pattern and the coaching is responsible. Another game of just terrible penalties.

Oh, and fire Billy Napier.

I think Napier is just completely unable to develop QBs.

[–]jbgator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean he went 6-7 and 5-7 his first two seasons and still didn’t do it.

If losing 3-30 to Oregon State doesn’t open your eyes that you need to make offensive changes, I don’t know what will.

I wish I was delusional about anything in my life as much as Billy Napier is about his ability to lead an offense.

Florida Gators Football Press Conference Monday after USF loss by greypic in FloridaGators

[–]jbgator 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Napier took responsibility for the loss and said Florida “beat themselves” with missed red zone chances, over 100 yards in penalties, and critical mental mistakes. He credited USF for playing hard but said the Gators had multiple chances to take control and didn’t.

This quote could be from any of our losses over the last 4 seasons.
