Sounds familiar. I wonder where I've heard that beforeThat's purely for depth and insurance, of sorts.
It's literally Franks and Trask next year. Allen will and should redshirt. His senior season hasn't been great. LDR goes to the bottom of the pile, if he even stays here.
Yes yes, blow an entire year of eligibility because a guy wasn't ready three weeks ago, but now he's had three whole weeks of practice WITH THE 2'S and suddenly he's ready to start.Sounds familiar. I wonder where I've heard that before
For the rest of you if you think the RS matters then you're not just stupid you're double gay stupid.
And finally, until the last few weeks neither Franks or Trask were getting any meaningful practice snaps because LDR/AA were 1/2 or 2/1. So neither Franks or Trask WERE FVKCING READY to start. Now, that Franks has been anointed #2 he's had three weeks of meaningful snaps. He's not ready for Alabama but a few more weeks and he can be ready for the bowl game. That's a good thing. Crikey use your frickin' heads you morons.
It's a sad day when you and I are the voices of reason.Use up a kid's entire season of eligibility for an exhibition game?
You just wait and see when Franks tears it up in the bowl game bucko.Yes yes, blow an entire year of eligibility because a guy wasn't ready three weeks ago, but now he's had three whole weeks of practice WITH THE 2'S and suddenly he's ready to start.
You moron ;)
So why would Appleby start then?A gun slinger throwing picks will turn heads too...turn them in the other direction
This whole redshirt argument is ludicrous. If the guy is any good they go after 3 years. If he isn't any good, he turns out to be like Appleby or Luke, both deserving of reject status. Play these guys. I don't trust Hee Haw to make a good decision though.I've been with you on 100 percent all year on this . But I don't think it would be right to burn a whole year of eligibility for one pointless bowl game.
Yeah, bring on the gunslingers, who gives a rip that they are Frosh. Besides, at this stage they are Sophs.So why would Appleby start then?
I believe so. It was exactly the same thing Spurrier did with Vannez Gooch in the Orange Bowl vs Syracuse. One of the announcers commented on it being a new semester, and not worrying about his redshirt. Gooch easy and FSU transfer.I don't think bowl games count for this year. I think they fall under the next year's eligibility, no?

It's based on when one enrolls in school, Gooch was a weird case because he had enrolled before the bowl game the year before so he became eligible for the bowl game in 99.I believe so.

This. You can't look that far into the future. Let's find out what these kids have now because it could benefit both the kids and the program. If they suck then don't make their progress a priority in the spring, simple. If they show promise then make them the priority until you see what Jake Allen looks like when he gets here. Frankly I've seen enough of LDR and AA to know where their ceiling is and AA won't be back anyhow. LDR is at best a career back up and needs to be told so. If his feelings get hurt then tell him to shove off. He's not even half the QB Will Grier was and Mac didn't have a problem slamming the door in his face after throwing him under the bus.....Good God. If Franks turns out to be any good, he's just going to leave early for the NFL anyway. Why the hell do we keep worrying about this extra year crap?
We desperately need a spark in the Gator Nation before there are mass suicides. Give us some hope, for the love of God.
Are you forgetting everything I taught you guys about Medicals....A good old fashioned high ankle sprain or back spasms sent in with some creative paperwork solves all those problems....Use up a kid's entire season of eligibility for an exhibition game?
