Sunday Will Muschamp opening presser updates:
@GatorZoneScott: #Gators coach Will Muschamp has arrived. Says team will hold split-squad practices first two days.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says preparation on field, weight room and class room key to get camp off to good start. Wants players 2“embrace competitive edge."
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp points out #Gators are 3-13 under him when they lose turnover battle. Forcing more turnovers in 2014 a priority.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says it’s important to develop a backup quarterback in camp.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says he has played a lot of young DBs as freshmen, so spots are wide open in secondary at some spots.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says freshman DB J.C. Jackson won’t be cleared for contact to start camp for approx. 7-10 days.
@GatorZoneScott: He adds LB Matt Rolin and WR Andre Debose have been cleared for contact to start camp. Both missed last season to preseason knee injuries
@GatorZoneScott: “I certainly feel like we have improved ourselves at that position.” — Muschamp on receiving corps
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp spoke to team before coming out here to talk to media. Says one message was to embrace adversity and move on.
@GatorZoneScott: “You either are renting it or owning it.’’ — Muschamp on mentality of a team. Says this team is taking ownership, likes attitude into camp.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says DT Leon Orr “understands what’s at stake for him. He needs to play well.’’ Orr could help fill void without Easley
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says offense will look much different “to the fans sitting in the stands."
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says RB Matt Jones is at 233 pounds, healthy and looks good with the extra weight on him.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says he is much more confident in kicking game heading into fall camp than he was prior to spring practice.
@GatorZoneScott: “I’ll talent over experience any day.” — Muschamp reiterates his belief that experience is sometimes overrated.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp mentions freshman DB Deiondre Porter, a QB at Tampa Jefferson, as a player he has been impressed with since he arrived.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp likes talent on both lines of scrimmage, but says #Gators must develop depth there in camp. OL Roderick Johnson one to keep eye on.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says DL Alex McCalister is up to 248 pounds, biggest since he’s been at UF. Now they need to keep him there.
@GatorZoneScott: “We’ll try to create that as much as possible.’’—Muschamp on getting RB Kelvin Taylor in open field where his natural instincts take over
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp likes what he saw late last season from sophomore LB Jarrad Davis. Feels he is primed for a big season.
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says he feels good about physicality that is laid out in first 15 practices. Will have a full and one half scrimmage over that span
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp on his Twitter feed: “It’s a work in progress."
@GatorZoneScott: Muschamp says he taught DL coach Brad Lawing how to Tweet.
@GatorZoneScott: “The players have been very receptive.’’ — Muschamp on Roper’s offense. Reiterates that they will remain balanced offensively.

A lot of hype, let's see some results. And if it isn't the spread, I'm going to be very upset.

I'm not going to get into a huge argument or attempt to degrade your football knowledge. However, during the O&B debut, the offense didn't take 1 snap from under center and never had less than 3 WR's on the field at once. What would you call that?

Hopefully he will put a hurting on defenses in the second half of games.

This is a pleasant surprise.

I'm liking what I'm seeing on offense. Let's just hope it transfers to the field.

Anything interesting Muschamp said in his presser today?

David Jones ?@DaveJonesUFbeat 2m
Will Muschamp said Vernon Hargreaves knee is "stable'' he actually hurt it banging against an teammate's knee. #Gators
Wow. Kudos to that one UF poster in the Rant thread that said this. He must've saw the whole two hour practice.
