Grier by far was the best QB UF had since Tebow.

Sure he had his lumps, but no other UF QB could make 4th down pass after 4th down pass the way he did vs. Tennessee.

He completely shredded Ole Miss, and did well against Mizzous tough defense until McElwain and Nuss went full tard with the playcalling.

Hold the phone! The "OL"was mostly 2nd , 3rd stringers with a few walk ons for good measure. Anybody is going to look bad sometimes against Jefferson and Zuniga. The first team OL didnt play much which is good idea when 340 lb bodies fall on each other.

Secondly, defense? Yes we dont have much depth now in the secondary, when the summer crop of hotshots get here we will. We have plenty of talent between Washington, Harris and Duke...the true soph phemon will be going pro next year most likely and I am talking about Chauncey. The foremention mentioned DBs will also be finding homes in the NFL (2 are seniors that I know for sure)

We were missing starters David Reese, and Sherit. Smith got some snaps on the DL, Vosean Joseph played a lot and even Moon was out there. The defense will be fine. Color me not worried. There were a few walk on DBs out there also playing....one that Calloway faked out.

What I saw that I really liked is the run game and how hard the backs ran. The defense also laid out some licks too...probably no one noticed.

Kicking/punting fantastic of course. A lot of our frosh recruits will be playing special teams to impress the coaches.

Grier? He damn sure struggled as a r/s frosh...no one remembers the UK game when we came within a hair of losing? Ditto UT. And he did NOT completely shred Ole Miss...our defense helped a lot with turnovers.

Yeah, Grier was our future for sure. I'd much rather have Grier over Franks, but Franks may have a great upside.

Downside is I don't see it making any difference in the near future.
