With all of the new changes going on at Florida Gator Football, it was just a matter of time before the ASAP Road Show would make its way down to Gainesville and find out what is going on. When Head Football Coach Dan Mullen took the coaching position with this Southeastern Conference program, he needed a guy to get the Gators' that nasty bite back. The Florida Gators needed some prodding, some new direction, and someone to bring out the fierce side. Mullen didn't have to search very far! He brought the guy who'd been directing his football performance program at Mississippi State. Nick Savage, along with his impressive and highly enthusiastic staff, was hired to prepare the Gators for some big days in "The Swamp".
Our first impressions of the transformation taking place at Florida was basically….. WOW! Things are looking real down there in that strength training complex that lies within the legendary Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. Some real SEC-type athletes are making some serious physical changes and I have to think that it won't be long until the Florida Gators put themselves back into serious contention with SEC foes like the Georgia Bulldogs and South Carolina Gamecocks.
Here are a few of the pics and a few video clips from what we saw there!
