    The 2004 Gators History & Tradition Divider “I think the University of Florida made a great choice with Ron Zook as its head coach. He has big goals, big dreams and he’s going to be fine. I think he’s a heck of a motivator. He can get the best out of guys.” “The guys at Florida are going to enjoy playing for him. He will be able to get them to play their hardest and put them in situations where they will play well.
