Not only have I heard him, but I'm seeing whispers of possibly Tim Brewster for TEs and maybe Dameyune Craig as QBs......and apparently Zook is interested in coming back to warmer weather and even put out feelers last year to maybe come here for ST. Not sure on Knox.

:burn:

One great QB every 10-20 years doesn't make you QBU by a long shot. The good news is we're almost due for our next one.

Every 10 to 20 years?

Reaves
Bell
Matthews
Dean
Danny
Grossman
Leak
Tebow
Cam
Grier

You’re right. We only have a good quarterback about every 10 to 20 years…

And since @ltraz liked that post - Why don’t the two of you let us know what university has had a better string of quarterbacks over the last 30 years. And name the quarterbacks.

Miami definitely had better quarterbacks in the 80s. Their last really good quarterback was probably Ken Dorsey.

I think we all would take Dick LeBeau right off the playing field, right?

Surtain would be a major uprgade over bell. Bell coached one year in college at fau. Surtain was an nfl pro bowler that probably comes with 5 blue chip recruits.

Let's face it, this year was hard on all of us, some more than others. Whether or not you're ready for a Christmas Vacation or not, life goes on.

We have a NFL probowl qb on staff? Didn't think so. Context is everything. To a hopefully great staff and some great last minute recruiting! For some reason I feel the season is just starting vs just ended.

Go Gators.

I don't remember strongly one way or the other on STs, I do strongly remember he was a good recruiter. I don't think he was irreplaceably good at either position.

Well sucks for him because we're fixing to go on another natty run straight thru them like a buzz saw
With this roster of misfits that nobody worth a sh*t wanted? :lmao2:
It will be 2-3 yrs before we're competitive with UGA or anyone else with a pulse. Mac and Shannon ROYALLY f*ck up our roster and it will take at least 2 cycles of top 5 classes to fix most of the issues and 3 for us to be considered a National power again. Mullen has his work cut out for him!

Sure. That's my only concern with the Zooker. It's been a long time, but after he got demoted from DC did he have a position group? I honestly don't remember. I'm not sure there's any position coach I'd want him replacing - but he does have multiple seasons in the NFL doing the job, so I'm certain he's probably gleaned enough about the kicking game not to make it useless for him to specialize.

I know you're not saying the following, but it sounds like you're saying the following:

Dick LeBeau couldn't hack it as a college coach.

I'm just saying case by case.
