Great competitor! Recall his freshman year against Bama when his helmet was ripped off & he kept on running. Here's a similar photo against Miami. Casey was a Big Orange WARRIOR!
Guy was tough as nails, I remember him mixing it up with an Alabama d lineman after a play with no helmet on, him playing the last part of a game with a broken clavicle and not telling the staff until the game was over (threw a late TD to Witten after the fracture).
It's a shame he didn't leave with an SEC title. He threw for over 300 yards and 2 TDs in the SECCG against LSU, but it seems like everyone else was in a trance.
Wish he could have some 1:1 time with Joey this week - The Iceman was THE LAST VOLUNTEER QB to win in Gainesville...we need that kind of mojo this week !!!
6-0 in Tuscaloosa, Gainesville, Miami and South Bend, doubt any QB has ever done that before. And 1-0 in Orlando against Michigan. Talk about a GAMER QB.
I used to keep track of Casey when I was living in LA and Vegas. He had and may still have a great high school coaching career underway. The last I heard and with great fanfare at the time he was named head coach at his high school alma mater.
