Will it be an injured Aaron Philo, or will it be a healthy backup, Tramel Jones? Let's start there.

Uh, genuine question, does it matter at that point? [laughs] Like, like, does it, does it matter at that point? Like it, it's either...

Yeah, Aaron Philo, who I'm assuming it's a non-throwing shoulder.

Because we, we don't have that confirmation, right? It's just, it's just, "Oh yeah, it's a shoulder issue." Um, and I'm assuming it's non-throwing.

I think if it was throwing you would just outright go no. Um, 'cause he did get hurt on a running play where he got tackled or, or pass play where he scrambled and then got tackled.

Um, but offense hasn't looked good even when he's out there fully healthy.

And then you have maybe Tramel Jones who, uh, you have not scored a lot of points in the past two weeks, right? You got 36 combined points.

What the heck has happened here these last two weeks, uh, getting blown out at Mizzou and then at home against South Carolina?

What the heck has happened here these last two weeks, uh, getting blown out at Mizzou and then at home against South Carolina?

Um, y- you almost got me cussing again.

I almost said, "F if I know," 'cause I don't know how to answer that.

[laughs] Remember when I used to come on the show with a belt around here on my shoulders, Gordy? Those were good times, good times.

Um, I really-- This team cannot face adversity.

Um, they, they just can't.

They get punched in the mouth, and they don't know what to do.

[laughs] You have to, you have to give an answer.

What has he changed? What has he brought in? Not just the talent side of things, but what has he brought to Gainesville that suddenly they've been able to hit the ground running like this and put up some big offensive numbers?

I mean, the University of Florida just needs a psycho as their head coach.

That's the biggest thing.

You just need a psycho.

And John Summerall is the biggest lunatic around.

I love it.

He's my favorite person now because of it.

But what if it doesn't end? in a national championship this year for the league what if it does end with yet another year without a team even in the national championship game the narrative down there hey we got everything right things are going well what would it mean though yet another season would be four in a row without an sec national championship

Exactly

... who's risk-averse.

Like, I would rather have, um, let, let's say the physical is everything the same.

I'd rather have someone with like an Austin Simmons mentality than like, for Florida's sake, like, like a Graham Mertz.

Like, I, I want someone that's gonna at least...

You're gonna turn the ball over, and you haven't been forced to pay yet, so I think that's, I think that's awesome for him.

Uh, but he's someone that just going into it, I was watching the game and I was like, "Flo- you gotta come away with one of them.

Mm.

yet,

right? That was the big thing with Auburn was, oh, well, they did a good job against Ahmad Hardy last year, and so they're going to stop Jaden Ball.

And then, well, games got played, and they didn't stop Jaden Ball.

And it is just really tough because you have no idea what this game is going to look like.

We spoke about Aaron Filo earlier.

no idea what the game's going to look like once you put it in his hands truly, and it's just up to him to go make those plays.

And so, yeah, I think that whoever can stop Jaden Baugh, if that's Keaton Thomas, that's Keaton Thomas, then I think that's one of the biggest things.

But I do think Mekhi Frazier and Jason Lindsay can pick up the slack better than a fifth-string backup wide receiver.
