Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Nico missed 2 long TD passes and a 3rd down pass to squirrel, Nimrod had 3 passes off his fingers, if those plays went our way we’d have beaten them by 3 scores and nico is sec player of the week
If not for the 10 second run-off to end the first half, Florida has 3 more points on the board, and we don't get to OT.

And, respectfully it shows. This is not me pooping on Nico, but after watching a game live and a couple of stinkers at home I have reset my expectations for him. He's still the man, but he's got some growing to do.
If he doesn’t turnover the ball we can beat Bama, but he has to do a better job protecting it. Get that down and the offense will be way better

Could it be on both the QB and the WRs? Seems more likely than trying to scapegoat just one. Besides, I still think the OL is behind the majority of our problems. Especially the tackles.
If I am assigning blame proportional to pay and what I see with my eyes it would go something like.

OL - 50%
Nico - 40%
Recievers - 10%

With an OL that's suspect. You saw his poise, accuracy, vision, touch, confidence, earlier in the year when he felt safe. A RS FR isn't going to maintain that with a suspect OL.
 
There is a reason Arch Manning was a backup.
There is a reason Arnold got benched. None of them are due to talent.

Those are Nico's peers. He has likely outperformed his peers or been close (Manning), but is nowhere near his potential either.
Facts.

Also fact: We are 5-1.

Just win.

Are there any underclassmen QB performing at a high level right now? I can't think of any.

Still thrilled about a win vs the Gators.

A freakin OT win where they had all the momentum at the end of regulation.

And what happened? We stuffed their offense, forced them out of comfortable FG range, they missed, and then our OL took over the game and we crushed their hopes as Sampson bulldozed into the end zone.

When the HELL does that happen vs the Gators? They win that game 100% of the time vs previous regimes here, save for 1998.
 


By my estimation he had maybe a slightly below average day. Not near as bad as some are acting.

The fumble. I think he scores if he can keep it. Totally different ball game. Missed the two deep balls, not sure if the one to Nimrod was his fault. The other two were close. The slant to Nimrod needed more touch. Didn't need to rifle that in there. The INT was bad.

Plenty of nice plays. I really it's just a matter of time before he gets rolling. Just needs to get in a rhythm and everyone else step their game up a little.

People arent giving UF enough credit. They have some athletes, they're fighting for their life, but they have an idiot coach. They're gonna screw around and win a game they aren't supposed to.

I think they'll end up making a bowl. Which, to be honest, is a bigger accomplishment in the SEC this year than in a long time.
 
Milroe running and lagway running are two entirely different people…Florida doesn’t have a OL and their blocking isn’t elite on any level….i said what I said pops…torched
I'm glad you can admit when you've been torched. It's a sign of emotional growth. Good for you!!!
