The Gator's brand new, 'no experience' OL....
LT Stone forsythe 6-7 323 rsJr -- 2018: Played in all 13 games and started Florida’s season opener against Charleston Southern at RT. Spent time at both OG and OT when in the lineup and on the ST's…
LG Brett Heggie 6-4 317 rsJr - An experienced starter that has taken the bulk of reps at LG on 1st-team this spring. Staying healthy will be key for injury-plagued Heggie.
OC Nick Buchanan 6-3 291 rsSr - The starter in 2018 has anchored the unit this spring and has lead by example.
RG Chris Bleich 6-6 321 rsFr - He has received most of the reps at RG with the 1st-team offense. Bleich figures notably into the plans next season but specific roles remain cloudy. Noah Banks 6-5 309 rsSr will also hopefully be available (currently with an undisclosed medical issue).
RT Jean Delance 6-4 319 rsJr - Started his career at Texas, appeared in 4 games a season ago but has emerged as the primary starter at RT in spring camp.
~ The other experienced roster OL'men, the 4 Fr-EE's, and the 3 Fr that will arrive in the summer are for rotation & developmental depth. While it will be a 'new & different' OL, it's not like they will be playing an OL made up of all incoming Fr, or guys that have never played a down. IF any of the Fr get a start, it will because they have shown exceptional skill and development and have 'earned' it, or if one of the starters gets injured out.

Derek Brown was projected by people like Todd McShay to be the first defensive tackle taken in this years NFL draft. Only problem with that is he decided to return for his senior season at Auburn. Rivals rated him as the number one defensive tackle coming out of high school as well
Am I supposed to G-a-S about what goes on in the barn?
I couldn't name your QB, much less some DT...
When your library burned down, Spurrier said; "what a shame, and some of those books hadn't even been colored in yet.". -- (pretty much expressed my attitude)
How about your moronic and totally incorrect claims?
"Seems like a mismatch against Florida's collection of 3 star offensive lineman that have never played college football"
The starting OL are all upperclassmen with playing experience, most with starting experience, except for 'maybe starter' rsFr Chris Bleich.
And IF they need to play a Freshman OL'man:
E-#2 OG Deyavie Hammond 6-4 345 Fr **** - chose UF over UA, UGly
E-#11 OG Ethan White 6-5 392 Fr **** EE- chose UF over 8 other schools
R-#13 OG Will Harrod 6-5 316 Fr **** EE - chose UF over a long list of offers
E-#18 OT Michael Tarquin 6-5 275 Fr **** EE - chose UF over 22 other offers
R-#37 OT Wardrick Wilson 6-5 311 Fr **** - chose UF over Mich and 10 others
As to stars, UF has 4 Jr's leaving early for the NFL, and 3 of the 4 were 3 stars.
One 5 star Sr is projected for the 6th round, and another 5 star Sr is projected as an undrafted F/A. So much for the morons W-a-G stars....

Auburn should be happy that they don’t play us home and home every year like the old days. Been to Jordan dog hair too many times makes me ill . Gators will wear that Auburn too many nickname ass out!
Same Todd McShay you've always called a dumbass and fraud, or different one?
And how about your QB and receivers? Because UF had the SEC's 2018 #1 Pass defense, with the #3 Total Defense.
(if you don't recognize any of the names, goggle um)
iG's projected (W-a-G) CB / S depth chart
Field - C.J. Henderson - Kaiir Elam - Chris McWilliams - Jaydon Hill
Boundry - Marco Wilson - Chris Steele - Brian Edwards
Star - Trey Dean - John Huggins - Chester Kimbrough
SS Brad Stewart - Jeawon Taylor - Shawn Davis
FS - Quincy Lenton - Donovan Stiner - Trent Whittemore (WR/FS?)
They are trying Trent at WR in the Spring, but with the depth there, I'm thinking that having him also for FS depth would be a good idea. This would be like having RB Clement as FS depth last season because of the difference in FS vs RB depth.
Greetings and salutations my dipsh*** Auburn fan. We see you wanted Chip Kelly as the Auburn coach back in 2015 and didn't have a problem with him being a cheater. Even said he would own the coach in Tuscaloser, right? You poor little bastard. Everytime you get owned on every thread you post on or create, you start another thread.
It's not the Spring game offense that should worry Gator opponents for 2019, it's this.... In UF’s final four games of 2018, Franks really found a rhythm as he completed 65% of his passes while averaging 215 passing yards per game while totaling 8 TD's against ZERO interceptions while averaging 44 rushing yards per game and totaling 4 rushing TD's.
Gator 2019 receiving corp = #3 in the SEC, Top 5 in the Nation vs SoS.
2018 - 2,776 yds, 28 TD's, 6 Int's.
>>>Balanced Offense<<<
RB's: (Team rushing for 2018 = 3,047 yds, 23 TD's)
Lamical Perine Sr - 6.2 ypc, 7 TD's
Kadarius Toney Jr (WR/RB 11.4 ypc)
Malik Davis rsSo - injured 2x, but still 4.7 ypc
Dameon Pierce So - 6.1 ypc, 2 TD's
Iverson Clement rsFr - 4.3 ypc in very limited use (RB/FS)
R-#3 APB Nay'Quan Wright 5-9 193 Fr **** HS 5+ ypc (summer arrival)
-----
Plus Franks at 6-6 240. - 3.2 ypc with 7 TD's.
The perceived weak point is the OL, but only due to backup experience levels, not any lack of talent. Early inures could hurt, a couple of late season injuries, not as much imoho. The OL is a work in progress,,, but it is certainly making steady progress.

Under the heading of 'Thank Gawd Almighty' there's this:
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- In the 8 years in between Billy Gonzales' stints as Florida's receivers coach, the Gators had 6 different coaches rotate through that role.
Only one of them lasted multiple years. That was Kerry Dixon, who joined Jim McElwain's staff without any previous experience coaching receivers (in fact, Florida's still the only place he's coached receivers). So perhaps it's no surprise that Florida's receivers have now improved by leaps and bounds under Gonzales' direction.
After all, Gonzales has worked coaching receivers for the past 25 years.
iG -- With the receiver corp that he has now,,,, Katie Bar the Door!

Any Gators wonder why he left out those UF vs Mich stats?
How about the UGly vs Texazz stats?
(crickets)
Because as we all know, the leghumpers can't finish, which is why they always end up lickin' their own nutts...
170 vs Michigan and 161 vs Sakerlina. Thanks for asking about the other two of the last four. Against good competition he was sub 200. That was my whole point. What does Georgia have to do with your QB in the last 4 games of your season? Do you ever just stick to your own topic? By the way, he had 105 yds passing against Georgia.Any Gators wonder why he left out those UF vs Mich stats?

Pretty much a dead thread, so I decided to throw out this tid-bit here, as it's not worth it's own thread imo.
If Feleipe Franks broke his arm right now (or at some point this season), who would take over as Florida’s starting quarterback? The answer is probably Emory Jones. Kyle Trask has just two years of eligibility left. Jones has four. You do the math. The Trask train has likely left the station and it’s time to start putting stock in the future. -- by Baillegh Williams of SDS.
=====
That line of media-moron drivel, parroting each other, is just plain STU-PID imo.
Franks and Trask are both rsJr's for 2019. If it's too late for Trask, then it's also too late for Franks. --- And if you're playing Franks because he has the best chance to win now, then that same reason would hold for Trask if he gives the team the best chance to win now. Otherwise, dump both Franks and Trask and go with the future 2 Jones...
And oh BTW, Trask is 'the best passer' among the 4 QB's on the roster. So if you want E.Jones for his running ability, then play the proven 'Human Joystick' at QB. He was a HS QB and he runs for 11.2 ypc and hit Franks on a nice 40 yard pass in the Spring game.
I'd be fine with giving Emory a package in games, but if Franks goes down and Trask stays, then it's Trask that should replace Franks, with Emory remaining as backup with packages. JMOHO's of course...

I agree. You guys should start Trask now. He’s clearly the best qb on your team. Franks and Jones should transfer out of honor and let Trask take his rightful place.

Not just in support of a Nole fan, but also In support of every sane Gator fan that has called you out on your creepy infatuation and obsession with Trask
Go back and read my post. You seem to have missed the message in your rush to flap your ignorant lips.
1. Franks is the likely starter for the obvious reasons.
2. IF Franks broke his arm who should replace him.
3. Trask not Jones, for the solid and factual reasons I stated.
~~ And you jerks in your circle have a much worse and much more creepy obsession and infatuation with me and my opinions,,, than anything I've ever posted about the Gator QB's.

Franks will lead us to the playoffs bank it dirty bi@#$es. Trask will always be a backup and Emory Jones isn't ready yet, he was always a project.
Yeah, and so was Tom Brady, right up until he was not, and instead became a pretty good starter in the NFL...
Driskel was also totally incompetent as a QB (some here claim), but he did well at LaTech, and now he's a millionaire NFL QB anyway... He looks a lot better when he has receivers that don't turn the wrong way on a timing pattern, or drop the ball on every other throw...
Coming out of spring practice things appeared pretty set at QB, though coach Dan Mullen always maintains that all jobs are up for grabs at any point.
"Kyle did a decent job this spring," Mullen said. "I thought he had a pretty solid spring continuing to grow and continuing to develop. He started out a little slow because he was a little banged up for the off-season program with his foot not completely recovered. So he started a little bit slow. But I thought he had a pretty solid spring and continued to develop."
Mullen didn't seem to give any indication that Trask might be considering a move to get playing time elsewhere, noting that he wants to have 3 QB's available and ready to play next fall.
"For me at the QB position, one of the things is we develop all the guys," Mullen said. "If you go and look at our spring reps at practice, and we grade, Brian Johnson is a tremendous QB's coach, and he grades every rep in the spring of the QB's.
"To be honest with you, if you take Feleipe, Kyle and Emory, all of them would be in every drill we had. They would all be within 50 reps of each other at the end of spring, because you're one play from somebody out and another guy having to go play. So our job in spring is to develop all those guys."
"Now as the season progresses we'll see how that all plays out," Mullen said. "And hopefully we have 3 guys that are ready to play. Hopefully we don't have to play 3 guys and we stay healthy as a team. But hopefully they all continue to develop and all continue to prepare and be ready to go play and win games for us."
Both journalists and fans hear the same words from Dan, and then each will put their own 'biased spin' on what they think the coaches words mean. Such is life in sports.

I hope Trask stays. If Franks leaves to the draft like everybody is speculating we’d only be down to both Jones’ next spring and whenever we sign this year. Not sure why anybody would want that, especially because Jalon Jones is a long way away from playing. I’d at least feel comfortable if Trask has to go in a game.
Jawaan Taylor was a 5.5 3 Star recruit and he just went to the Jags with the 35th pick in the N.F.L. Draft. Did Auburn’s 5 Star ( why did he leave? ) Byron Cowart get drafted yet?
In a recent interview, Cowart stated that he made a mistake following the musclecramp to Auburn, and he should have stayed with his commit to UF.
BTW, 3 of UF's upperclassmen projected starters on the 2019 OL have starts, and all of them have played in games.
J.Taylor *** came in at 380, got down in the 330 playing range, drafter at #35 at 317.
----------
E.White **** HS 392, already down to 355, Projected to be in the 330 range by Aug.
Dan knows how to pick them and Savage + nutrition staff knows how to sculpt them.

Dan knows how to pick them and Savage + nutrition staff knows how to sculpt them.
I mean....Emory would be going into his redshirt Sophomore year...I'd like to think he'd be ready to play by then.
Also, Insta just slyly compared Trask to Tom brady.
Right. What I’m saying is Emory would be starting and then behind him would be some raw projects. Great upside but I don’t know if they’d be ready to go into a game. I’d at least be comfortable with Trask for a series or even a game against a low level team of Emory got hurt.
We have made a lot of noise about Mullen being a great QB developer. We need to be confident that after the Joneses have had two years under his tutelage one of them will be ready to step up.
I totally understand where you are coming from, though. So many years of bad coaching has made us gun shy. It's all about trust issues. But ask yourself, did you ever have a doubt that Spurs would have a QB ready to go? Try to get that feeling back.
Got complete trust in Mullen at QB. Just based on what I see Jalon got a long ways to go, really weird throwing motion. And Richardson is an elite athlete but needs some time to learn to play QB. So I think Trask would be the best backup to Emory next year.
I also think it's ridiculous that franks would declare early.
Unless he has a crazy good year, I don't see anyone taking him in the first two rounds.

I don't disagree.
But...
His draft status is going to be severely impacted by Kyler Murray's play. As we all know, the NFL is a copycat league. If he goes out and leads the Cards to 8+ wins, the quick little QB is going to become all the rage. If he goes out and gets pummeled, and injured (like RGIII), there will be a move back to the 6-5 prototypical guy, which is what Franks is.
And you know, he just might have a crazy good year.
Whoa, you mean the NFL might draft someone like Driskel or Franks based off of SPEED and SIZE?
Crazy.
