Straw, Enjoy your moment in the sun but bottom line is that, per Coach Mullen, "We play the players that give us the best chance to win." With that being said, he must have felt that Franks was the QB that gave us the best chance to win. Is that still the case? I guess we will see Saturday. One thing is certain, we have to improve at the QB position this off season. Whether that means Franks gets better, Trask or Jones improve enough to take the job from him or we bring in someone better than all three. I will continue to support whoever is on the field for the Gators.

Straws doesnt understand that last part.
Nor does he understand a defense giving up 3 uncontested tds in the first half due to blown assignments. He likes to blame one man over another not doing his job.
I hope Trask starts Saturday. I guess it will take a loss with him at QB for us to hear Straws honest opinion of the rest of this team because we all know the loss wont be Trask’s fault -wink wink-

I hope Mullen starts who he thinks gives us the best chance to win the game. Caving to fan pressure is no way to coach. If it's still Franks, there has to be a reason.
I don't believe in giving up on a season. 9-3 is way better than 6-6. Making changes just for the future is not fair to the seniors, boosters, the season ticket holders or good for the program.

Other coaches have figured our defense out, due to lack of depth and experience they know that they can run some crossing patterns or make a double move and burn our secondary. These are not bad players but need to learn and are getting a hard lesson. We have got to build some depth across the roster but the secondary is hurting the most.

SDAR is at least consistent with his beliefs. Which isn’t necessarily wrong. With that being said we are in need of some serious depth and experience all over the field.
If QB play was much better I’m not sure what that does for a defense that seems to have regressed the last couple of weeks. I understand we have injuries but so does everyone.
My expectations did rise with the good start we had only to be tempered by some loses the last couple of weeks. I still feel that things are going in the right direction. Go Gators.

More trivia you ask?
Who had the longest drive of the day (by time and yards)?
Oh and just for some hints for the rest of you:
Trask had more passing first downs than the entire offense did in the first half combined while only playing 20 minutes (came in at 5 minutes into the the third).
Posted on 11/5/18 at 11:31 am to StrawsDrawnAtRandom
I’m not questioning the fact that we have a problem at QB. I just don’t think our record would be that much different. Would that be one less issue? Yes. Is Trask the answer? Not sure.
I haven’t looked to see how many games Trask has played in. If a player can play in 4 games and still redshirt then let him play from the beginning of one if he can. It can’t hurt.
No player is guaranteed a starting position. Would I burn a redshirt this late in the year? Not if I was the player. I personally think every player should redshirt if possible. The knowledge and growth would/should be more than just getting out there 1 year removed from high school.

I agree about redshirting but they don't want to spend an extra year in college, for whatever reason. A lot of these young men don't understand that a top 3 round draft pick is -- well, it's like being an officer in the military. Perks, benefits and money are all a huge step up from later rounds.
For the QB assessment: Like I said, Trask had 6 passing first downs, that (depending on how you're counting) matches or supersedes the entire offensive production of the first half -- and he did it with 10 minutes less playing time.
Trask is going to have growing pains -- and it's not fair because he clearly hasn't gotten the attention that Franks has had.
Which brings me to my next point: If he had the attention and experience that Franks did, he would likely be a top 3 SEC QB. Just look at the raw data, forget the beautifully arched touch pass he had from his own end zone, or the leading pass that he had for a touchdown, the strikes he had to the outside and the crispness of the offense:
He came in ice cold off of the bench, working with 2's the entire season and off-season (outside of a few workouts) in a game where our receivers, for the most part, were jogging and didn't want to be there -- and he matched the first string offense's first down marker in the first half. Completely dominated Franks in every aspect of the game whether you measure by QBR or stone cold statistics.
To say that you don't know if the offense would improve, or that it wouldn't change anything, I think is a little bit of a fib. He could have some bad luck all year, but there is NO DOUBTING that he is better than Franks at managing the game and seeing the field.

Well I mean, a coach in his first year -- Mullen is in grave danger of losing fan support for the comments he's made about packing The Swamp.
If we want attendance, there has to be a Quarterback change. These last two weeks have completely replicated Muschamp and McElwain's offenses except even Treon Harris didn't have as many bad games as Franks. Treon Harris in his second year only had one game where he failed to make a hundred yards (and really he only had 8 attempts) -- Franks has had multiple.
Change the QB, win back the fans, hope to God he doesn't lay an egg. I think Trask is good enough to win SC and FSU, but my only concern is that we waited too long to actually get him in the games and get the reps.

Trask isn't better than Franks. He may have a better game here and there but neither of them are quality QB's and at least with Franks the defense has to kind of respect the QB run. I don't care who he starts at QB I am still going to hold my breath when they drop back to pass.

You guys have said this shite all year and were proven, to me, completely incorrect by the last game. I didn't predict by chance that Trask saw the field better, you could see it in the Spring Game and from some of the scrimmage notes/statistics.

They don't. You know why they let Franks run? Because they know he's not going to burn them the entire game with his legs. They'll give him one or two here.
I'll take accurate downfield passes over Franks, once every few games, running for a few yards.
This level of denial is absolutely astounding from the Gator fanbase.

I actually love how this has come full circle. Lmao
The hypocrisy and irony all rolled into one. GOLD baby gold
Example: When Straws did his little breakdowns, he was very quick to take away Franks biggest passes sayin it was the run after that padded his numbers and without that catch his numbers would be this. I notice he didnt do that with”Kang” Trask that if we take away the Toney catch n run, hes not over 100 yards and his number of ypc is less than Franks. You also remember how quick Straws was to point out how many possible ints Franks almost had? He didnt do that to Trask as he nearly threw a pic 6 on a screen pass that the defender missed by inches. He was also quick to point out “garbage time” stats late in the game when it was out of reach. What was the score and time Trask came into the game?
He took away games that had Franks stats over 50% completions and was quick to call out the opposing defense’s ranking. Trask was one pass over 50%. When wrs dropped a Franks pass it was crickets, they drop a Trask pass and Straws gives Trask the completion calling it “wr error”.
So apparently coming off the bench in garbage time, leading one scoring drive while being one pass over 50% and nearly throwing a pic 6 vs the worst defense in the SEC gives you Kang status :)
But honestly.
I hope Trask starts this week and does well, im just pointing out the dbl standard by our residential “qb guru”

I love how butthurt you are about this. 
Trask hasn't played a real snap in his entire career, high school or college and he outperformed Franks.
In my breakdown I actually listed the bad things about Trask if you had bothered to read it -- but I know you're not about intellectual honesty, you're about being upset because I was right, which is okay. I would be upset too if I had doubled down all year like you did, even after I told you to check the context.
Keep on, keeping on.

So Coach, who do you think starts Saturday?
Does that Mullen guy still think Franks is the best QB the Gators have or has someone else changed his mind or are you just gonna tell him who is going to play? Inquiring minds want to know?
If it is still Franks, should we Boo him and the team?
We need your guidance.

So he had time to sit and learn without being thrown out there game 1? Youre not helping yourself.
And again, here you are making excuses for Trask saying its his first game. Franks never got a pass from you playing his early games in a new system when he was thrown out there
Cmon, keep up the dbl standard.
Posted on 11/6/18 at 12:05 pm to dbuchanon
Ill say it again, idc who the guy is. Play the best we have, but when someone like Straws has beat their drum all seaon even after wins, dont expect us not to throw your bullshite back in your face.
You gave countless what ifs and take away this ect when it came to Franks. Ill bet we never see thst again with Trask out there.
Thats all im sayin.
