[Gulfstream]

Really ?

Good for Muschamp, poor on Orr. Hope he can learn from it but it should be a tough road back

An announcer said Orr complained to WM about not starting. What a "real" HC says is "Leon, you are part of this team. You'll wait on the bench with teammates in case injury or such makes you needed." That's being a smart CEO.
Something good could happen with Leon there. Nothing but bad goes with casting him out.

This reminds me of hothead Muschamp agreeing with guys who mentioned transferring. (Christian is TE we could use now.)

Yep they were saying this in the pregame broadcast.

 

[Coach9]

Go Greyhound and leave the driving to us!

 

[Turk182]

Orr = Big Cry Baby!

 

[Coach9]

What's the big deal starting? They have a pretty busy rotation on the line.

 

[t-gator]

I wouldn't stand for this if I was Orr. I'd transfer and play the last 3 games of next year for someone else

@NickdelaTorreGC: Will Muschamp said Leon Orr is no longer part of the team. "He left out football team on gameday." #Gators

 

[GatorJ]

Mind blowing. Isn't he a 5th year senior?

 

[GatorSkin]

What a pussy move by Orr good riddance. Doesn't take a rocket surgeon to figure out why he lost his starting spot.

 

[Coach9]

We have WRs enjoying blocking for an entire game. We have a starting QB benched, but being a solid teammate and helping his replacement. Team seems to have a nice unselfish chemistry going. Coach absolutely did the right thing.

:bye:

 

[OcalaGator83]

Real smart Leon. Don't bail on your team on game day dude.

 

[BMF]

Wow! What a selfish prick! I hope he's "kicked off the team" (as one of the other posters pointed out). Don't need this kind of selfishness. Almost as bad as Muschamp sticking w/ "his" guy at QB for most of the season!

 

[Jake from State Farm]

unfuvkingbelievable!

Exactly. He can just take a medical redshirt just because he wants one.

His feelings were hurt. I'm sure Concrete is working on the paperwork as we speak.

Has he ever had back spasms

I totallly agree. That would have been a constructive way to handle it.

Steve Russel just said Orr was told he would play in second series, and Russel either said it wasn't good enough, or said if it wasn't good enough......and then said he was sent home.
