Off season tidbit I came across. He just graduated with a degree from Ole Miss at 19 yrs old Originally committed to UF then finished HS early and jumped to OM. Just thought it was cool. Very smart individual. The 19-year-old graduating college before starting at QB for Ole Miss: Meet Austin Simmons.
He decommitted because he was scared of the our schedule and competing against DJ Lagway… so definitely a smart kid.
Thats an odd comment. Lack of good parents that raise their kids right is probably the biggest detriment we have in society. This kid got it in spades. Possibly a bit overbearing but infinitely better than many parents. I know adults tgat were basically raised by nannies.
Agree Wanne, and I expect him to be a formidable opponent, when UF takes on Ole Miss, at the Grove. They will be chomping at the bit for revenge. By the time the 15th of Nov. rolls around the kid will have plenty of experience. (If he stays healthy). It "could" even have playoff implications for both teams. I don't like Layne but it's hard to question his coaching abilities with QB's. It's way early to be making predictions, but I think UF will be seriously challenged in this contest.
