Catch Jake Allen playing right now in ESPNU

Have you actually watched him play?

So we can't give an honest assessment about his play? Got it.

In waiting to see what happens once our fantastic offensive coaching staff sinks their claws into him.

Good point.

Ill wait til a kids in college before I start knocking his play. Not getting on a soapbox or anything, but I don't think it can do anything good for the program, but it could do the opposite.

Seriously? Most Div 1 college players look like Dan Marino in HS. Even the Morningwhegs of the world did.

Great kid with a good heart that wants to be a gator and is doing everything in his power to recruit good players for us. I have alot of hope that he does well here.

He makes Trash look like an all american. Heart doesn't win football games, not when you are throwing 4 interceptions and rarely can complete anything that isn't a screen pass.

I think I will skip the trashing of high school players who are all gator and will give him time to transition and develop. Something you dont understand. Haters are gonna hate. Is there any other incoming players you want to trash while your at it?

I only watched the first half also and its mostly what I had seen before from him. Maybe he does have some good potential but I think people are crazy if they think he could step in and have any success as a true freshman. You just don't see things on tape suggesting that could happen quickly. I would be really surprised if he isn't redshirted next season.

Did you catch the highlights from the first game between Chandler and Valdosta State? That QB from Chandler we picking them apart all game. Tight coverages, between defenders, deep routes.

If Coach Mac is the so-called "quarterback whisperer" (self-proclaimed), I am yet to see it. Maybe he is waiting for his dog to sign his L.O.I. We could use Fido.

No I will have to watch some of the replay.

Nahh, he's pretty much the only one who looks like he needs another three years in high school.

Yea ok. I would bet your a total failure at your job and everyone around you thinks you suck. I guess thats all you know. Do you hit women too?

Youre my favorite poster, Dan.

One immutable characteristic of human nature = Hope is the foundation of all action i.e. no person takes
a step in any direction that they have no hope for that outcome. So, all results have streamed from hope.
One cannot shortchange hope, as it is the driving force.

Its not about whether or not someone is right about a kid not being good, its just about not trashing kids while theyre kids. If he makes his way to the next level then its fair game, but HS kids? It just doesn't feel right to me, and I'm not some namby pamby everyones a winner kind guy.....quite the opposite.

 

[MJMGator]

I didn't watch, but do any of you really think it makes a difference who our QB is with this coaching staff? I sure as hell don't. I've seen 4 different QBs start in the last 2 years and other than a quarter here and a series there, our offense has sucked no matter who's back there.

Blind hope is a fools errand, hope in a course of action is less so, but hope in the face of facts is stupidity
