That's kinda my point. Driskel was the heir apparent and Bridgewater wasn't a priority. Bortles developed late but I'm sure he would have preferred UF over UCF.



Does UF or even LSU usually offer qb's with offers from schools like WKU and Colorado St.?
Driskel was a great high school QB. He was much better as a runner than a passer, and that was well known. So what does O.C. Brent Pease ask Driskel to do? He asks him to drop back in a pro style 5 step drop and read a defense and find a wr. Something Driskel is not capable of doing.

I can tell you that our current top 2 QB's were each only offered by half the teams in the SEC.....and Florida wasn't one of them. Driskel was the #1 Pro-Style QB when he came out. Brissett was the #3 Dual threat QB when he came in with Driskel. How is the #1 pro threat QB "not capable" of dropping back and reading a defense?
