Am I really having to justify why I hate a former GATOR QB on VOLNATION? What is happening to today's youth?

I mean I couldn't stand him when he was the QB of UF, but Tim Tebow the person seems like an awful good guy (unless he runs an underground drug ring we don't know about or assisted Aaron Hernandez or something). I tend to root for people who share their faith and live upstanding lives and he checks those boxes.

Just listened to the bkeavs podcast where they just watched an entire practice. Highlights:

A. Take what the general media says with a grain of salt because they barely see anything.
B. Garner is TOUGH on the DL. They were doing gassers and up downs long after all other position groups left.

Which made me remember the Emerson tweet where he was complaining about how much he disliked his coach (loosely paraphrased) and how he and a guy who has never been fully bought in in Middleton left.

C. They complained about the size of some guys. Said they were shocked with how small D. terry was based on the hype. Said all our linebackers are small. Still look like a high school team at linebacker. Said Morven Joseph looks like a tweener/safety.

D. Raves about the secondary. Said Turnage and a Hadden are just different level athletes. Said chemistry and camaraderie was great. A lot of coaching up between the players between plays.

Edit: also called out Tyumen Fields as a guy making plays both times they’ve been to practice. R-So this year so they still think he has a nice career here all said and done.

Overall they felt a lot better about the defense than they did in the spring but as we all know we’re still not where we need to be.

Smokey greys with the Grey Appalachian Mountains helmets need to come back ASAP

I have one of those replica helmets in my den. It’s just a neat design because it’s not just some absurd Oregon-like flashy color combo. It’s the daggum Smokey Mountains! What’s not to like?

To be fair, Kerbyson came in around 2011. The role and size of modern LBs has changed a lot, especially in the SEC - the old "big boy football" league - in 10 years. Modern game is a lot more like Big 12 football than old SEC ball. Maybe our LBs are just...normal size for these days.
