Are we still referring to Al Golden and Swamp Donkey as "9" even though we are now on "2"?

For those who might not remember, we always kept track of the different coaches and staffs at rivals 1A and 1B by referring to the numbers of coaches they had while we always had the same coach.

Amazingly, since 1976 when Bobby came on board thru present day, both Miami and UF have 9 head coaches each:
  1. Carl Selmer (1975-1976)
  2. Lou Saban (1977–1978)
  3. Howard Schnellenberger (1979–1983)
  4. Jimmy Johnson (1984–1988)
  5. Dennis Erickson (1989–1994)
  6. Butch Davis (1995–2000)
  7. Larry Coker (2001–2006)
  8. Randy Shannon (2007–2010)
  9. Al Golden (2011–present)
And the gaturds:
  1. Doug Dickey (1970–78)
  2. Charley Pell (1979-1984)
  3. Galen Hall (1984-1989)
  4. Gary Darnell (1989)
  5. Steve Spurrier AKA "Sniveling Steve" (1990–2001)
  6. Ron Zook (2002–04)
  7. Urban Meyer (2005–10)
  8. Will Muschamp (2011–14)
  9. Jim McElwain AKA "Swamp Donkey" (2015–present)
Meanwhile we just have 2 - Bobby and Jimbo!

Its my opinion Jimbo's gonna be here at least half as long as Bobby (another 10 years and he hits that milestone)

At this rate, Jimbo will likely out-coach the tenures of #s 10, 11, 12, and maybe even #13 for our rivals!
