Fall Practice has begun....
I, unlike everyone else, couldn't care less about who starts at QB, they are all equally top quality...
Moving on....
🙄
Not only do the Gators have former OLB Mike Peterson working with the LB'ers, they now also have former Gator MLB Brandon Spikes helping coach them.
(from a Swamp247 article)
A LEGEND RETURNS
Brandon Spikes has long been interested in returning to Florida to help the team in some capacity.
The former Gator linebacker has spent considerable time around the program in recent months, attending both team and recruiting events while expressing to Florida's coaching staff that he felt he could be of assistance in some way.
They agreed. -- Spikes will primarily work with Florida's linebackers in 2023. In a similar fashion to what former Gator DT Sharrif Floyd did in 2022,
(Former Florida DT, turned first-round pick, turned Gators student assistant in 2022. Sharrif Floyd was hired by the Dallas Cowboys as the team's assistant DL coach for 2023.) Spikes will serve as a student assistant for the program while he finishes his degree at the university.
(good for him and for the Gators in the iG oho)
With the quality of the Gator roster LB's, and with both Peterson & Spikes coaching them up, in the iG's oho, the Gator's 2nd level defense has a real chance to be at or near the top in the SEC for 2023. 🤓
