Treon's days may be numbered - now cited with driving w/o license

[crosscreekcooter]

Is the proper pronunciation lilli-POOT-eons or lilli-Pooshians?

 

[KCgator]

Driskel didn't have the mental ability to be successful in college. Treon seems to have better football smarts and with proper coaching I think he can be a star. Until we see Grier in a game against SEC talent it's impossible to say what he will do.

I like Harris. He may not be tall but Leak wasn't much bigger and he ended up alright. I don't think he'll give up his spot without a fight and it'll make him and Grier better for it.

Sad that it took you this long to finally have an emote for yourself.

...But funny that the emote named for him has a wide open mouth being filled with a cylinder shaped object.

And that he is proud of that.

I don't see anyone beating Harris out next season. He got the backup job after not playing in the Spring and had top competition in high school unlike Grier. If Grier was clearly better they would have told him not to redshirt.

Grier had back spasms for one thing and also, WM wanted a more mobile QB to run his offense. Now that Mac is here, Grier has a great chance of beating Harris out for the starting position.

The coaches didn't think Grier or Harris was going to get much playing time so it had nothing to do with how good they thought he was.

Not imo - If one was clearly better they would have wanted him in there when needed. I think people are a little Grier infatuated because he hasn't been thrown in there yet. I will be surprised if he beats Harris out for the starting job next season.

 

[Alagator]

...Some want to compare him to Russell Wilson, but I just don't see it. Similar skill sets but very far apart on ability.

Well yeah, if you're comparing a 3rd year NFL player to a 18 year old college freshman. But compare him to an 18 year old Russell Wilson and then we'd know. Personally, I never paid much attention to NC State,so I don't know if he played as a true freshman nor do I know how "skillful" he looked at that age.

 

[Alagator]

I'm not ready to throw TH under the bus quite yet. The kid is a winner and until joining the WM sinking ship he hadn't lost a game he'd started in years. Not sure the stat but seems like I read he had not lost a game since his freshman year or something similar to that. And that was against the best HS talent in the country. He's shown he's not afraid to compete, as seen by his commitment to us despite already having had WG committed for nearly a year. FSU fans we're really upset about losing him.

Having said all of that, I believe WG eventually wins the starting job. Call it a hunch. But I still think TH has more ability that many are giving him credit for. Ironically, many who are so critical of him now were swinging from his nuts just a couple of months ago.

Well if we are to believe Roper at the beginning of the season Harris wasn't clearly better than Grier, but he had the ability to run. So ability to the ability to run was the deciding factor, and Harris got the nod. We do not know how either fits into McElwain's offense so it is too early to say who would be the clear favorite.

Rapeis Winston is clearly better than EJ Manuel, yet he redshirted and made to sit on the bench while EJ was getting knocked the Phuc out by Antonio Morrison.

 

[GatorBenji]

In Grier we trust!

 

[GatorBenji]

I also thought Harris got the nod since he was more SEC ready playing in Florida as compared to NC, and Grier had issues. How tall is Grier?

 

[oxrageous]

Grier was also underweight. That had plenty to do with his redshirt.

I already made this point. Go find your own point to make.

If you hitch your star to this Munchkin what can't throw the ball...good luck to you. I'm sitting here smiling thinking of how successful Freon Florida will be the next three years. :)

Again you're assuming Muschamp would do anything smart offensively and no I don't think Roper had any say whatsoever. They were neck and neck from what the coaches said and eye witnesses observed in open practices.The only part I don't get was they said Harris was better at the short dink and dunk stuff as well as running and Grier was ahead on the intermediate stuff. Harris in fact seamed to struggle as much as Driskel with short stuff and screens while throwing a nice deep ball. I think Muschamp thought Harris with a smaller play book would be good enough if Driskel went down or struggled moving the team kind of like Tyler Murphey did the year before and before he got hurt.
Remember you're talking about the same coaches that thought Westbrook and Burton would be as effective as an all conference transfer TE, McGee and that Matt Jones deserved more carries than Taylor or Lane.

Well ONE thing you can rest assured of is that he will be successful against Tennessee. Now kindly FO.
