Cool how life works out… Had my first “Recruiting Visit” as Head Coach with @CoachBateman & @coach_bnapier . The @BuchholzFB to @GatorsFB connection has been and will remain 🪨solid. #BobcatsToGators

- Our PROGRAM moved to 5-0 tonight. Not me. Just blessed to be surrounded by players and coaches who #BelieveInBuchholz. The ability of our team to overcome all kinds of adversity is mighty special. #GoCatsBuchholz HC Chuck Bell moves to 5-0 in his first year leading the program after tonight’s 30-10 win over Vanguard.
- Blessed and humbled by the outpouring of support and well wishes. Coach Whittemore is one of the most important men in my life. The opportunity to steward this program, which he revived a decade ago, is one of the biggest honors that has ever been bestowed upon me. #GoCatsBREAKING: @BuchholzFB's Mark Whittemore is hanging up his headset. Whittemore told his team he is retiring minutes ago. @CoachChuckB is set to take the program's reigns. Story to come.
- Proud to be the position coach for the first @WarnerU Football player to ever compete in the @NFL. Only fitting that Larry's an @AZCardinals
- My son is the happiest little boy in the world after getting to high five and take a picture with @big_gavin23 last night. He wouldn’t stop bragging about it! So, I wrote this when I was thinking about the joy of spending the last 4 years with Gav. #FamilyForever @GatorsFB
- Pride, Hustle, & Desire. Whether as a player or a coach, embracing those 3 words have steered our program to success for 50+ years. #BobcatNation #BrothersForLife gainesville.com/story/sports/2…
