Those of us who enjoy the teams coming out every week in the fall know that it was because twenty-five UF coaches and many great players over 110 years brought us all the victories and the excitement. We know how they did it--discipline, conditioning and an honor in winning. The Gators were never a losing is OK team. Look at the record. The Florida Gators from way back have a winning way. UF fans need this book on their bookshelves. We also meet the great immortal University of Florida players by working through the seasons with some great coaches-George E. Pyle, Bob Woodruff, Ray Graves, Doug Dickey, Charley Pell, Galen Hall, Gary Darnell, Steve Spurrier, Ron Zook, Charlie Strong, Urban Meyer, and Will Muschamp. We find another great coach at the end of the journey, not yet an immortal. Coach James McElwain seems to be on the right path for the future. We don't tell a lot about the great coaches because this book is all about great Gators players. In this book, we highlight the great UF players of the ages.
