QB Anthony Richardson ‘looking good’ as Gators prepare for FSU, but his future seems uncertain
Florida quarterback Anthony Richardson has gone from a rising star to missing in action. The redshirt freshman’s role remains a mystery entering Saturday’s regular-season finale against Florida State. “If he’s healthy and available we’ll get him in the game,” interim coach Greg Knox said Monday...
I hope you are right.
But I see a team that had huge expectations for themselves this year, and it all went to Hell. I can legitimately see them wanting to go 5-7 and not have to go to a bowl game. Frankly, without a coach or a scheme, it doesn't even matter for the young guys, the extra practices will just give them more to unlearn. Literally nothing to play for.
If we beat FSU, I plan on going to whatever crappy bowl game we get. Just don't think that's going to happen.
What the hell did you "leterman" in? Tiddlywinks or gender studies? What the hell does the IRS have to do with this? You under audit? 😂
So the AR starting stuff was just nonsense it sounds like. I don’t think it’s coincidence that he’s been injured in about 4 different ways since UGA.
It's kind of weird. I have no idea why he doesn't start and play more. I know he got hurt dancing at a hotel one time (Mullen threw him under the bus there).
I feel sorry for him in a way but he is what he is passing at this level of football. I think he would be best suited going to a group of 5 team to work on things. I doubt he stays unless Richardson shocked everyone and left.
EJ has played his tail off for Florida. He just too often hesitates before making his mind up and throws to the wrong guy too much. And it's not gotten any better as the season progressed.
Just need 2 QBs that can play next year. AR15 and somebody else because unfortunately he may be injury prone.
Teammates raving about Anthony Richardson’s leadership this spring
Teammates have said quarterback Anthony Richardson has been more vocal as a leader so far this spring.
Tim Tebow weighs in on expectations for Florida’s Anthony Richardson
Are the expectations too high for Florida's Anthony Richardson in 2022?
As with any player or team, staying healthy is always a roll of the dice. I believe that Anthony has learned when to throw and when to run.
As to having quality players to throw to....

FL 5A PoY in B-Ball - 24.3 PPG, 10.9 Rb.

At the Elite Football Underclassmen showcase recently in Orlando, Livingston exclusively participated as a TE and impressed as a pass-catcher and route-runner.
TE/Ath Arlis Boardingham 6-4 220 Fr - WR-RB-QB-OLB-S
This guy could and did, play any skill position he was needed at.
TE/QB Hayden Hansen 6-6 256 Fr - 4.80/40 with huge hands.
(possible 2nd coming of a Kyle Pitts type)
IF the WR and TE coaches can't come up with 6-8 solid receivers out of that group, then Nappy hired the wrong guys as coaches. 🤓
Plus there's a very solid group of RB receivers coming out of the backfield.

Gator 2022 QB Depth Chart by the instaGator....
1. Anthony Richardson 6-4 237 So - Starter
2. Max Brown 6-3 200 Fr - (summer arrival, 71%, 41 TD's to 4 Ints)
3. Kitna 6-4 205 rsFr - SEC Honor Roll, seems pushed aside by Nappy
4. Jack Miller 6-3 215 rsFr (3rd Yr) tOSU xfer = McLame & Jack Del Rio
Jack was such a great pickup in 2020, that tOSU took 2 QB's in 2021. 🙄
---
5. Carlos Del Rio-Wilson 6-2 225 rsFr - took the hint with EJ to the portal....
Recruit Offers: UF-UK-MS-TN-Ark-AU--AzSt-FSU-Mia-GaT-Mich, ect...
He chose UF, then got chitted for a failed backup QB that chose tOSU.
From 247 - Miller's Weaknesses: Consistency & Accuracy (EJ was better)
-----
5. Kyle Engel 6-0 190 rsSo - WO, 2X SEC Honor Roll & STA FL 7A Champ
6. Jack Anders 6-1 203 rsSo - WO, 2X SEC Honor Roll, Germantown, MD
>> The Roster already had two excellent backup depth QB's, so why bring in a third and then put him on a much needed ship?
Dear Nappy, you gave tOSU's backup bail-out xfer Miller every opportunity to step up all Spring and in the O&B game, but he's still just an average, run of the mill-er QB. Might be time to move on....
247 Swamp "The Gators need significant improvement from Miller and the other backups at the position."
To the iG's eyes, Kitna and Brown should be competing in the Fall for the backup job, while pushing AR-15.

When someone questioned AR-15 running the ball, this was my response.
Napier said; "Scared Money Don't Make Money."
And I reminded everyone here about his early on statement after being hired.
Richardson - 11 for 106 yds, 9.6 ypc, 3 TD's, L-45
Now if Billy would just work over-time on getting Max Brown ready to go as the backup, I'd be able to sleep better the nights before games.... 😉

I read an article today that if Jack Miller would have been available for the Kentucky game then AR was gonna be benched a series or 2 to try and get his head on straight.
Napier said the earliest Miller will be back is Tennessee. Not so sure AR wants to get in a shootout with Hooker from Tennessee. We gonna have to score 40 plus to beat the Vols.
We don't know what the game is going to look like and Tennessee is going to be a tough game but 'having to score 40' because Tennessee beat up on Ball State and handled Pitt isn't an forgone conclusion. I'll wait and just see how this team does but I think that we'll be up and down and like in week 1 we are going to surprise some people.
Not sure about 40 but watching them I doubt we shut them down like last season. That QB seems to have improved since that game. Tenn will be a good barometer to see if AR has it mentally as they have an average SEC defense but can test you some. I am glad the first big test after that loss isn't the GA or A&M defense.
Truth. If we can't get well against USF we have real problems.
No.
7 games in 32 years. Why do people keep forgetting this stuff so easily?
sadgator hopes they “checkerboard” the stadium once again in two weeks.

While the Vols have been one of the most overhyped teams in D1 year in and year out, the Gator defense will be stressed at Tennessee. Under Josh Heupel they snap the ball faster than any team in the country and will put up some points. With our lack of depth, fatigue in the 2nd half could be a big problem. I'm terrible at picking Gator games, but my opinion is that we have to score a lot of points to win
I think it would be tough to hold Tenn under about 24 or so which means our offense would need score like in the Utah game. We know Tenn will copy a lot of KYs stuff until we show them we can burn them when they do that
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign
Blockin' out the scenery
Breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that
Can't you read the sign?
Ummm why do ppl compare past years? It's this year and now. You don't win games from comparisons. Florida appears to be a young team and is going to struggle this year. Tebow's sophomore year was no different. Every team goes through this stuff. To be honest every single college team sucks whenever you look at them. I do t kniw if this is because of technology is catching up or what but something g is going on. Don't be surprised if football is a thing of the past in a few years.
But Tebow totally dominated with pinball numbers his true sophomore season. We lost those regular season games except for maybe Auburn due to a very young defense.
