We will know more when the game plays out I guess but I hope his hamstring let's him run around and Mullen doesn't let the game get out of hand before making a change if needed.
On Monday, Mullen finally gave an example that shed some clarity as to why Richardson might need some more time to be ready for his moment as the Gators' starting QB.
Mullen gave one example quite plainly:
“An easy one would be if you go back a couple games he drops back, misses a protection check, then misses the hot throw, then misses the primary read, and then scrambles around and runs and everybody thinks, ‘What a spectacular play!’”
Mullen feels that making the right reads and checks is something that both QBs need to do a better job of, something that they'll grow into.
“They always do. Both our guys do," Mullen said. "I thought in the first half both quarterbacks played really well, made good decisions and I thought in the second half we made a couple poor decisions, missed reads, missed checks, you know, things that you gotta do.
"Taking care of the mental part of the game for both our quarterbacks. I think that’s a big part of it as they continue to grow.”
