Gainsville.com - Knute Rockne's "Win one for the Gipper" speech may seem old and faded now, but it stands the test of time. Tim Tebow's inspirational speech apparently will go down in history as well. Florida recently put up a plaque outside the front entrance to the new football facility at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium with Tebow's speech inscribed on it. Tebow's speech, of course, was the emotional promise he made after the Gators were upset by Ole Miss last season. Fighting back tears, Tebow vowed no one would work harder than him and his teammates for the rest of the season. The quarterback and the Gators kept the promise, with UF running the table and winning the national championship. The speech has become famous — and you can see it, word for word, when you walk by the football facility.

This story makes me want to punch both Tim Tebow and Urban Meyer right in the balls.   I mean give me a break.  The dude is still in fucking college!  What’s next?  Retiring guys numbers after they have one big game?Listen I’m not even going to get into the fact that he gave this speech to the media and not his team because it doesn’t even matter.  The bottom line is you can’t try and force history down people’s throats.   Time will tell whether this speech deserves to be immortalized.  But you can’t do it 10 minutes after the season ended.  This is typical SEC Tebow/Meyer propaganda.   In fact it wouldn’t surprise me if these guys sneaky orchestrated this entire thing and had the speech scripted and ordered the plaque before it even happened.   Seriously I hope Florida goes 0-10 this year and somebody smashes Tebow’s face off the plaque.  Fuck Florida. If they want to put a speech on the wall why don't they put this one up there. This is way more entertaining than Tebow's...
