Yeah, if Horseteeth Fooley, who ran the selection committee had hired Mike Archer from LSU like he wanted to do in 1990, and BHG HAD NOT intervened, we could have been .500 forever and fought Vandy for last every year.79 today. Without him........who knows? My favorite player and coach in my 60 yrs of gator fandom. He made everything better after he came back to coach.
Right, Fooley was the AAD who ran the search committee who recommended Archer.
Archer was fired the next season after another losing season.
Yes, of course. But it shows a lot about him that he didnt realize he had a goat available and didnt run into Arnsparger's office and demand he reconsider. He doesnt have a clue what a competent football coach is.I suspect the lean toward Archer was Arnsparger's doing and Foley was simply playing the role of yes man, for which he was well suited.

Never trust an injun..."Obviously, Spurrier eventually found his way back to the SEC, as he was hired in 1990 by Florida. The athletic director for the Gators at the time was Arnsparger, who had advocated on his way out for Archer to replace him at LSU when Spurrier was available and wanted the Tigers' job. With prominent Florida power brokers leading the charge, Arnsparger brought Spurrier back to his alma mater."

Saw the first bad review on the Family page. Not for the food, but the service and manager on duty. Lady didn't sound like a Karen at all, just deeply disappointed and as long as she was telling the truth, she was being beyond reasonable.Have you eaten at his place? I think we’ve discussed this before but not sure. But for someone like you who remembers all those things, it’s almost a museum.
One of my friends who worked in ADs Office back in the day used to say it was surprisingly stressful. "There wasnt enough room in building for both Fooleys ego and Spurrier's."You're just wrong, take the L ... next thing you know, you'll be trying to tell me there was a Joe's Deli on 34th Street!!!
Joe’s Deli was the first restaurant I ever ate at in Gainesville. Mrs G and I went there when we were dating. Had to be ‘90 or ‘91. Best as I can remember it was on 13th, near Shands. Does that sound right or am I mixing it up with somewhere else?You're just wrong, take the L ... next thing you know, you'll be trying to tell me there was a Joe's Deli on 34th Street!!!
