He's been making some comments about possibly leaving early, actually, though I can't seem to find the article...it's a few weeks old. Stuff about how the NFL would give him more oppurtunities to do his charity work, etc.

Russell is a starting NFL QB who is 6'6 and like 270, but looks like a complete sissy so far in his NFL career. So I think Tebow can do it.

Let's be reasonable here. He's playing for the Raiders. Any other team with any other QB to learn under and I can only imagine he'd be much further along in his development.

Tebow will get drafted. He didn't set all of those Florida High School passing records by accident. He's got an arm, and makes some really good throws, but hasn't really developed into a true passer yet, and won't in the offense he is in.

He'll go somewhere and sit for a few years or play sparingly as a change of pace/gimmick QB and eventually take over the job.

He has a lot of talent and is very dedicated. To think no one is going to give a shot is just plain stupid. That being said, I hope he learns to take a loss a little better. He seems to break down every time UF loses a game. Oh, and I will not miss him one bit.
