Muschamp's post game

[GatorJ]

https://www.gatorvision.tv/mediaPortal/player.dbml?id=3453555&db_oem_id=6500 The best one I've seen from him. About Treon, he talked about he and Grier having the "it" factor. Reporters were trying to get him to bash Driskel. He did a good job of evading that. I'll be surprised if Treon doesn't get at least half the snaps next week.

The player interviews are interesting as well. The team is really cohesive following this game.

Nice to see smiles instead of emptiness...

Let's hope he finally sees what he needs to do. TH will probably make a few freshman mistakes but Driskel is still making freshmen mistakes. There's everything to win and nothing to lose by making the switch to see if TH can grow into the real deal.

Neon treon will be starting

I'm not allowed to give up my source though

 

[Coach9]

Thought it interesting when talking about QBs with the "It" factor he didn't mention one guy.

I wouldn't care if your source were a magic eight ball, if it meant winning ballgames.

He's gotta realize that at this point...doesn't he?!?

I thought Treon should have started vs UT. Driskel will start next week. WM's reasoning = Jeff has to be given a
fair chance to reclaim his starting job.

His comments about the defense are so lucid, so precise, and so true. His comments about the offense are so not lucid, not precise, and not true...it is scary what he thinks he is seeing compared to what is actually being seen. I am really beginning to think he has mental problems. He does not seem to realize that it is okay to be wrong, admit it, and make the change for the good of the team. Driskel does not have the support of the team. They will play, but they will not play for him...and Muschamp has to see that and make the change. Today was great evidence...

Everybody makes mistakes. Its ok to be wrong and make corrections. He had to be dragged kicking and screaming to Treon.

Yeah, the thought of the Gator Nation Noise in his head must have been exponentially resounding as the 3rd quarter was closing. Glad his epiphany came though, it should make it easier for him to pull the trigger earlier for Treon if Driskeling starts gushing onto the field.

This is my problem. Why would he even consider putting JD in after yesterday? This would tell me that his ego is more important than winning.

 

[TallyGator]

The evidence says start Treon, with Driskel as the backup. Otherwise, we have a mentally deficient head coach.

 

[gardnerwebbgator]

If he doesn't start Treon, he loses the team. So of course, he'll start JD.

 

[Coach9]

My sense is he tried to take a lot of the blame from JD to give him a cleaner exit as the starting QB. Then he goes on to say Roper was misquoted about saying Treon was not ready to run the offense. Goes on to say everyone in the locker room believes Treon can lead the offense. Says you may just alter plays you call for Treon. I think he's already decided whether he announces it or not.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

I hope you are right, Coach.

Couple of observations: Muschamp didn't include Driskel when mentioning QB's with the "it" factor. He did mention Harris and Grier specifically.
I thought his explanation of playing in the secondary and how confidence can be lost was eloquent. It was a good analysis of the mindset required to play that position.

 

[KCgator]

Driskel has "it" too. It's preceded by "SH".
