JB was a fifth year senior while JD is an 11 -2 first year (sophomore) starter.. in a new system. At least give one more year before you faint like a goat.

So you didn't think that 2nd-year JD was better than 5th-year JB?

You can never, ever have enough kids like this in a class.

Why do people have to hijack a celebratory thread with swipes at a soph in a first year offense?

Before the much-beaten horse dies, I'm postulating that a *slightly* better Driskel + much better O-Line + much-deeper WR corps = MUCH deadlier offense.

Why all the trashing of Driskel?
I really can't stand folks who expect every player that comes to UF to be able to play at the level of a first round NFL draft pick the minute they suit up for the Gators. It really is a ridiculous standard. Need I remind you people that we instituted our 3rd offensive system in three years this past season?!!!? Do you have even the slightest clue as to how difficult that is for any player, let alone the Quarterback!!
Add to this that Driskel was forced to split all of his reps throughout the entire Spring with Brissett cutting his ability to progress in half. Throw in the hardest schedule in the entire nation, the last minute loss of our position coach for wide receivers leaving us with a grad assistant the entire year, and Muschamp's own determination to run no matter what, and I think Driskel did a pretty fair job.
We ended up 11-1 and then the whole team took a dump in the bowl game which no one was excited about in the least.
But by all means lets blame everything on our true sophomore Qb and demand we hand cuff our team again by replacing him with an even less experienced player next year.
I swear some people around here have the common sense of a bag of hammers with the football acumen to match.
Does Driskel need to improve his ability to make check downs to secondary receivers?...absolutely, but guess what helps that develop?...experience and reps.
Try supporting our players and coaches and allow them to develop without the insane demands of instant perfection. You might just be suprised what our team is capable of without derision from our own f-ing fan base...jeez!!!

It's one thing to get a tall, fast kid out of highschool. It's another thing to get a tall, fast kid who runs precision routes.

Best-case scenario for 2013: Robinson is all that and steps in to contribute Day One. This plus an already proven Quinton Dunbar. This plus an Andre Debose for whom the lights have come on.
