You got me curious. The last blocked punt I could find was by James Houston against Colorado State in 2018. The last blocked FG I could find was by Adam Shuler last season against Towson.
Thanks for looking that up. I probably should have said "last blocked kick in a real game"! Lol.
I guess Meyers emphasis on special teams being a weapon didn't rub off on Mullen.

It was surprisingly difficult to find. I think you have to go back quite a bit to find the last one in an SEC or FSU game.

This kid is much better than Strickland. Makes no sense that he wasn't offered prior to Strickland.

Don’t kill the messenger. :backout:

But, seriously, the staff really likes Strickland’s athleticism and strength. Some guys don’t play strong. Strickland does. However, he is incredibly raw. You won’t be seeing him for a while. That’s the staff’s take.

Mine? He plays with strength. He’s a dirty player. But, man he looks like he is moving in slow motion. I think the Andrew Mike comparisons are accurate.

No matter how much "upside" he has, a UF - who has aspirations of competing for the SEC championship and playoffs - should never take a kid like this. It's a bad take and it was made in desperation.

Agree. Even if he turned out to be a good player, he’s a guard. No way he plays tackle. So, again, where are the tackles? Does this staff think anyone can play tackle? We are recruiting Yousef Mugharbil to play tackle. But, that is debatable. Some staffs think he is a guard. Hev seems to have Granthamitis. Choker wants all 230 pound DEs. Hev wants all guards on the o-line.

4 tackles and 1 sack on the season screams game changer
Jeremiah Moon Stats, News, Bio | ESPN

Houston isn't doing much better
James Houston IV Stats, News, Bio | ESPN
well as for Houston I've just noticed him around the ball a lot more and making better reads.

on that first play versus Georgia he seemed to be the only linebacker whe even read it. Moon got swallowed up bc he isnt even close to being strong enough to set the edge. I don't know who the other linebacker was (probably Miler) but he went to the left for some reason. Miller's usually pretty sound. Of course with Grantham maybe it was some sort of run blitz, and Grantham gambled and lost.

Remember when y’all said that about Nayquan Ethan White and Trask...me too
