When news broke that Lane Kiffin had cut off communications with Florida, and it quickly became evident that Jon Sumrall would be the next coach of the Gators, there was a ton of backlash.
We here at Hail Florida Hail certainly said our peace, and there are still things that we reserve the right to be skeptical about, namely Sumrall's tendency to tighten up in the 2nd half and the fact that he has so many one-score wins (both tenets of Billy Napier's time at Louisiana).
But Sumrall is doing everything he can to prove he has what it takes to succeed in Gainesville, and he's starting to win over even the most skeptical of Florida fans.
