Florida spent exactly $2,492,789 to go to the 2024 Gasparilla Bowl.

Its revenue from the game? Well, exactly $2,492,789. How'd those numbers line up so perfectly?

By claiming the budget it set aside for the game was .... revenue. The school actually lost $1.4 million.

Did Texas commission a $10,000 portrait in Atlanta for the second round BEFORE it even played its opening round game?

Why yes, yes it did. And the listing is still up.

The program has been combative with anyone in the media who questions anything about anyone for more than 20 years, they don't answer questions, they have the worst open records dept in maybe the country ... it's pretty endless and no one ever cares until stuff like this explodes
