Quote:If you know he isnt a good passer why make him throw 43 times a game?  Oh because he is a senior and he is magically supposed to be one?  Well he isnt.  Whether you havent coached him up well enough or whether he isnt good enough makes no difference.  It's your job as coach to fit the scheme to the talent of your players.  The Gators arent doing that.  And thats why all those coaches will be gone soon.  Because they keep trying to make him into something he's not.

 

they aren't asking him to do very much.  he struggles to make the routine throws and simple reads.  he is just not smart enough to grasp the game at this level.  I don't know how much you have watched UF, but I think it's obvious.

 

I actually preferred Brisset over him. 

 

They have been trying to implement a lot of read option for him this year... but he rarely reads it right.  He usually just hands it off even when the DE bites hard.  A lot of big plays are left out there because he doesn't have enough sense to know when and when not to keep the ball.

 

They barely beat UK and should have lost with a Driskel pick 6.  fortunately for Driskel the ball bounced off the CB's stomach and into his receiver's hands.  The guy is just dumb.  Sorry to say it.  Nothing personal, but he is a horrible decision maker.  That is not coaching.  He just isn't good.
