Offer Lamar Jackson? What a colossal f*ck up by all of us not to get his ass at our school.

Gators went through years of shit QB and this prodigy savior down the road in Boynton Beach had to flee for Louisville....

The three star QB who was the 409th best recruit in the nation?

Had you posted this in 2015, man it would be impressive today. Now it's more like complaining that we should have chosen the right numbers in the lottery back then.

Not at all. Trask was ranked lower than Lamar. Coaches find players regardless of what rankings us couch potatoes look at. Regardless of his rank, he was a baller in high school. Was probably passed on due to size and/or expectation he'd be a receiver/returner in college.

We've had several talented QB's...bad coaching and no player development. Driskel would have killed it under Mullen. Chump and Butter Teeth screwed it up...oh that guy Grier and Brissett...pretty good as well.

Well, according to his profile, Florida recruited him, offered, and had the last OV on Jan 30. But he didn't sign with us.

I agree with Sad, in 2015 we handled QB's the way a 14 year old boy unhooks a bra. It wasn't pretty. If he had come to UF, he wouldn't be the player he is today.

I would have loved to see Will Grier play under Spurrier back in the day. Imagine THOSE numbers. He could have come close to Danny Wuerffel.
Grier is the type of player you hope to get every few years. Mac was an idiot on how he handled that. Partially I'm glad that he did because he was never right for UF.
 
Muschamp wanted him at Corner if I remember right so he was never coming here.
He was about to commit to Muschamp till he got canned. I do remember Butters trying to recruit him. Ultimately Lamar made the right choice by going to Louisville rather than playing for Butters. Hell, I can't blame Dalvin Cook for choosing FSU over UF.
