My first game ever in the Swamp was 1986 on a recruiting trip. UF was playing LSU at noon. UF lost that game 28-17. There were already 4 guys from my H.S. Playing for the Gators at that time. What made me remember this is that the Gators are playing LSU at noon in the Swamp on Saturday and they have rarely played that early in the past. I will have to leave the woods a little early to catch the game.

P.S.... So Badnole doesn't feel bad. My first recruiting letter came from FSU/Brad Scott.... Had two guys from my H.S. Playing for FSU at the time... :)

Go Gators

Just curious, what happened that you ended up at a smaller school? Grades? Cool story by the way.

Long story but it all worked out and I have learned that there's a reason we all end up where we are at in life. That small school won 5 N/C with a bunch of kids from FL... :)

FSU wouldn't of done that.... :)

I was lucky enough to play with an All-American in H.S. and he would fill the stands with recruiters.
