Florida Gators head coach Jon Sumrall has escalated his viral feud with ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky by sharing a photo of the broadcaster sniffing a woman's shoe on-air. 

The bizarre back-and-forth began after Sumrall's wife, Ginny, revealed during a recent interview that her husband regularly gets pedicures, calling it his 'favorite extra thing to do' every two weeks during the football season.

Orlovsky quickly weighed in on ESPN's Get Up, taking a firm stance against the Gators coach's routine grooming habit. 

'I am completely against pedicures for dudes,' Orlovsky declared on the broadcast.

'You're a dude. You're not supposed to get pedicures. I'd rather have awful feet than get pedicures'. 

Sumrall refused to let the comment slide, taking to social media to deliver a brutal response to the ESPN host and former NFL quarterback on the matter.

The Florida head coach posted an infamous screenshot on X of Orlovsky sniffing former co-host Molly Qerim's shoe during a previous First Take episode.

The photo immediately went viral across social media, with fans roasting the ESPN analyst for the embarrassing moment that occurred back in 2024.

At the time, Qerim was left disgusted by Orlovsky's actions, leaving the former QB to  be mocked by social media users as the clip went viral.

The hilarious spat comes as Sumrall prepares for his first season leading the Gators, injecting plenty of offseason entertainment ahead of kickoff next month.

Sumrall faces a steep task in restoring the program to national prominence after the Gators suffered through losing seasons in four of their last five years.

Facing a grueling SEC slate, CBS Sports projects Florida to finish with a 6-6 record in Sumrall's debut season, with matchups against powerhouses like Georgia, Texas and Auburn on the horizon.
