So was Joe Burrow.Guy was a 70% passer at a big boy school in HS. Take him, take him, take him.

But Weinke was also 26 not 23. I would take him as a preferred walk-on.I feel like he would be a project. Weinke was the top rated QB recruit coming out of HS. Parade 1st team etc etc. We already have EJ and JJ. I know we have room now but I would like to think Mullen fixes that.

Fans hoping the Gators would dive into the graduate transfer quarterback market for a third-straight year may be in for some disappointment.
Mullen said, right now, he did not expect to add another quarterback to a room featuring rising sophomores Feleipe Franks and Kyle Trask as well as early-enrollee Emory Jones.
Florida has been linked to Ohio State’s graduating quarterback Joe Burrow in recent days.
“I don’t think that’s a spot we would look to take anyone,” Mullen said. “I feel pretty good about the guys we have and the depth we’re creating at that position and the competition at that position.”
I'd take them both. I'm greedy like that :).He probably got one of those MLB deals where the MLB team that drafted him will pay his college expenses. If not, we have 5 open scholarships (maybe more) - so I'd put him on a one-year scholarship (letting him know it may not be renewed). Nothing to lose here. Now if Burrow comes I'd take a pass on this kid....
Man, this would be a great topic in the recruiting thread!! :D (j/k, can't help myself sometimes).
Where did this info come from? Any links or further info?
He would be stupid if he actually advertised that he's looking for another QB just in case the one(s) he has right now decide to transfer before the transfer decides where to go. He said the PC thing.I don't know if this has been posted in other threads, but the this report claims Mullen is happy with his QB depth chart:

Would work well in the recruiting forum too!! Oh, wait.....

What recruiting forum? :D

We won't take Burrow but we'll take a dude who hasn't played football in 5 years? Sounds reasonable.

He was a high (5.9) 4* in 2013 nationally ranked 158 on Rivals. I'd be happy to see a real competition between him and Jones.
Now you are carrying 5 QBs with none graduating soon. I don't want anything to hinder us getting a superstud QB down the road.

Weinklenutz was damn near 30 when he went back to fsu. Cord is what 22-23? Sign him upThere's a thread at 247Sports about Cord Sandberg who played QB for Manatee and signed with Miss. State in 2013. He chose baseball and is now interested in coming back to football and is talking with UF and Mullen. Left handed, very good speed, can actually go to a secondary receiver. Chris Weinke with wheels anyone?
We're not getting Burrow and NordbergI am pretty sure Franks and possibly Trask will transfer if we bring Burrow in. Sandberg is a throw in.
