  florida gators practice facility: Fightin' Gators Kevin M. McCarthy, 2000 The University of Florida, the state's oldest and largest university, is recognized today as one of the country's most academically diverse public institutions. Though able to trace its history to 1853, the school did not begin its popular football program until the first few years of the 20th century. The program has had its share of scandals and embarrassments over time, but it has also produced two Heisman Trophy winners, a national champion, numerous players drafted into the professional ranks, and a visibility that consistently ranks the team in the top five in the country. Now attracting 85,000 fans to each of its home games, the Gators' football program has become a vital part of the University of Florida. When the team won the national championship in 1996, no one could have predicted such success just 90 years earlier. Fortunately, that fascinating journey through the last century has been captured in great photographs that include formal portraits of teams; action shots on the field; views of The Swamp; and snapshots of fans from every decade. These images tell the story of the birth and growth of a football team, a team that has brought enjoyment to millions and national recognition to the University of Florida.
  florida gators practice facility: The Six-Minute Fraternity E. C. Wallenfeldt, 1994-09-29 NCAA boxing represented a brief, but colorful, chapter in the history of intercollegiate athletics, and it played an important part in the lives of persons making substantial contributions to American society. This story of NCAA boxing is told from the perspectives of former national champions and coaches. One hundred-fifty-six men won 199 NCAA championships. Perspectives of 72 of them and 13 prominent coaches are presented in this book. Almost from its inception in 1932, coaches and other supporters concentrated on the physical and psychological welfare of participants. They took action to get opponents to know and appreciate each other as human beings. Opponents ate together before their bouts and socialized afterwards. Lifelong friendships resulted. These socializing practices and opposition to the sport caused officials, coaches, and boxers to be very close. Wallenfeldt narrates the history of this sport from its inception to 1960, when NCAA boxing effectively came to an end. Of considerable interest to sports historians and boxing history buffs.

  florida gators practice facility: Canes vs. Gators Marty Strasen, 2016-09-13 All parties seem to be in agreement that the rivalry between the University of Miami and the University of Florida is as nasty and historical as they come; going back to the thirties, it’s the state of Florida’s oldest major rivalry. Gators beat writer Pat Dooley described the vitriolic rivalry to the author simply as “vile.” History would prove that to be true. In Canes vs. Gators, coaches Urban Meyer, Howard Schnellenberger, Steve Spurrier, Larry Coker, and Ron Zook and several former notable players on both sides of the rivalry, along with key media members for both schools, offer their unique commentary on the intensity of the rivalry. For example, Schnellenberger recalled with anger that after his staff and team were pelted with frozen oranges in 1980, he kicked an extra meaningless field goal in a blowout victory . . . and he wished he’d called on his punter to take the ball and launch it into the Florida student section! Author Marty Strasen, who covered both schools for over a decade, brings to life the greatest moments of this historic rivalry. This book is the perfect gift for Florida college football fans!

  florida gators practice facility: Spurrier Ran Henry, 2014-11-14 “We all like to prove people wrong who say we’re no good,” says the eternally driven Steve Spurrier, the 1966 Heisman Trophy winner and NFL quarterback who took off his helmet, put on his coaching visor, and turned three downtrodden universities into winners. Spurrier’s Fun ’N’ Gun offense at the University of Florida flummoxed defenses and rewrote playbooks across the Southeastern Conference, transforming SEC football into a modern phenomena. Spurrier tells the story of a preacher’s son from the Tennessee hills who has been overwhelming opponents with “ball plays” for nearly six decades. The climax of his storied career is uplifting the University of South Carolina, a school that lost more football games than it won between 1892 and 2005, and was believed for over a century to be cursed. The only Heisman Trophy winner ever to coach another Heisman Trophy Winner, Spurrier dared to enter the “graveyard of coaches” at South Carolina, confront his destiny, and turned the USC Gamecocks into an unlikely winner. Spurrier is the biography of the Ball Coach who has forever changed college football—and its impact on our culture.

  florida gators practice facility: Covid-57  Glen Rocky Meyers, 2023-06-20 Covid-57 continued its rampage, attacking our human existence. Many doomsayers had predicted it would be Nuclear Holocaust that would end civilization as we know it. No, it wasn’t a Biblical prophecy of the Apocalypse described in the book of Revelation. Nor was it a Super-volcano, rogue Asteroid, or comet slamming into Earth. The great Flood didn’t wash away humanity, nor did an unstoppable Fire burn us to crispy critters or suffocate us with black smoke. The Sun didn’t finally fizzle out. Nope, it was a Pandemic named Covid-57. The leaders of all the countries in the world had to put aside their differences and forget about animosities temporarily to survive the killer virus. The World Order became the powerbroker for all governments. Either their policies were synched and aligned with the W.O., or they faced isolation and Blockades. Food and supplies became scarce, and mere sustenance was impossible without being in collusion with the W.O.… Shasta County, California, became the testing ground for what was planned for the rest of the world’s inhabitants. Mandatory Vaccinations were ordered, and panic-cannibalized people… who didn’t dare oppose the coordinated propaganda. Social media was saturated along with every other public outlet. People were dying in the streets; the sensationalism was Hollywood based and horrific. Every Religious leader became a pawn… Christians and Islamists were united, and churches became vaccination centers across our planet. But there was hope because not all people kowtowed. Many fighting back against Marshal Law were the younger generations who weren’t brainwashed yet. Militias populated, and the NIA Militia was at the forefront, aligned with Bethel Church. Yes, hope existed, although bleak…
