this is a poem about our new headcoach Urban Meyer, and what that means for UF.
The Gators have a new head coach,
A fellow named Urban Meyer!
This occurred after our beleaguered
"Interim" coach Ron Zook was fired.

Football for Florida
Is more than just a past-time,
For not taking an interest
Would be close to a capital crime.

Now, I'm very pleased to say the least
About this recent series of events.
I am hoping for, nay, expecting
The ferocity of passing to commence.

For it is much better
With our caliber of players
To air out the deep ball,
And silence the nay-sayers.

So, we are ready for jubilant Saturdays
Of excitement after heavy tail-gating,
Because we got what this team needed
After these two long years of waiting.

And be ready Chris Leak
For a Heisman-hyped season.
The new offensive audacity
Would be your primary reason.

A little side note
To our soon-to-be-gone Ron Zook,
A great recruiter,
But our hearts you never took.

It was perhaps unfair
To fire him without caution.
But I guess those conference losses
Seriously and fatally cost him.

I love my Gators,
Of that you can be sure.
They're the reason
I go to school anymore.
