This is good news considering he'll probably be blocking for himself

So within the last year 25 lbs. But 43 since he enrolled at UF. Either way 215 is good.

215 is much better. He needed some durability for the SEC.

I think he should be near the 230 range for the SEC. I think when he came here he was at like 170. That is like kicker weight and not QB. Actually I think I mentioned something about that when we signed him. If he is our starter, I hope that we can block for him so he can have every opportunity to be as advertised.

He's been in UF's system for about 19 months, with no real strain on his body. The 43 lbs is very doable over that time frame, especially if he never did serious weight lifting.

Very good.

I see Mac kinda molding him in the way McElroy and McCarron were during his and Nussy's time at Bama. He's gonna have to have a smart head on his shoulders dump the ball out of bounds. Mainly learn to play on the next down. He won't last if he takes a beating.

So he needs to have the same measurables as Antonio Morrison to play qb? That's unnecessary

215 is a good weight for his height (listed at 6'2", so it's probably about 6').

I'm glad to hear he put on some weight, I'm also glad that the football team got rid of 200 lbs of useless weight since last season with Will Muschamp's firing.

That is absolutely ridiculous.

I don't think so at all look at these stats

Tim Tebow (6'-3") 236
Cam Newton (6'-5") 245
Drake Prescott(6'-2')- 230
Jeff Driskel (6'-4") 238
Jameis Winston (6'-4") 227
Tom Brady (6'-4") 225
Peyton Manning (6'-5") 230

If Will is still 6' 3" ( that is what he was listed as an incoming freshman link below), at 225-235 is not too much weight for that frame. Hell he is going to need it if the O-line is bad as Law says it is.

If he is at 6' yes 215 is a good weight; that will put him in the Johnny Football size. However I think he is closer to 6'3" than 6'

I don't think he even sniffs 6'3", except in his dreams.

According to the recruiting link I provided earlier he was 6'3' when he came to Florida.

Your first four are big dudes that fit the read option offenses they were recruited for. Its been well documented that Winston is a fat ass. The last two have size and about a decade on him. Brees is 6' 209. Average out him and Brady, where Grier's hieght is, and he is just right
