Will Grier transferring, free to go to ANY school

[AugustaGator]

well thats part of the internet/twitter these days. Things do go over the top. I also think hes doing this cuz of the competition he'd have to face coming back and its not like someone gets handed a job 6 weeks into the season

If more supportive, would be more inclined to stay.

 

[AugustaGator]

I hope he finds a good home.

No doubt his overbearing, blowhard, meddling father had quite a bit to do with it.

Interested to see if somebody beats out Treon.

I blame his roommate, the Jackass kicker. He's rumored to be the biggest party animal on campus. I'm sure he influenced WG to do the wrong thing.

 

[NVGator]

We never really wanted him anyway.

Nonsense, he's the best QB we'll have on campus until he graduates. Franks has a chance to be good, but he's still raw and needs development. Del Rio? Trask?

Sarcasm or?

You think a qb is gonna just be handed his job back halfway through a season?

Where did I say that? I'll hang up and listen.

BTW... Didn't Mac just announce this week the Grier would be in class in January? And now apparently this meeting was last week? Who's reporting wrong on what?

So if you don't think that then you expect him to try and take the job when Franks has a year under his belt, more incoming qb freshman and another year on trask and del rio. Thats what we call wait for it... competition.

I think Mac was just telling us what we wanted to here at the moment cuz he was asked about it

This is frustrating, no doubt.

But I also think it was a bit unrealistic to hope that Grier (and his dad), would be patient enough to basically wait until fall of 2017 to be the QB again for UF. Probably best for both sides to start clean.

He made his bed, he'll have to sleep in it.

Pretty sure i recall making a post on this about a month ago and ya flamed the **** out of me.

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Good grief. I swear we built the Swamp on Indian burial grounds.

 

[GatorintheKnox]

What doesn't make sense though is he'll have to sit regardless. If he transfers, does him sitting his transfer year count toward his punishment?

I thought Treon was the one who can't see downfield ?

I hate this new world of college football.

If true, disappointing and confusing. I tend to think there must be more to the story - stuff we don't know. I still think Grier would be the favorite to gain the job back even mid season next year. I have no idea how he benefits by going somewhere else and sitting out a year. Beginning to see a pattern of odd decision making on his (and perhaps his family) behalf.

Just one more QB set back in a sordid 7-8 year saga for the Gators. I'd feel a little better if we had Eason coming in. From what I saw of Franks, he looked like he needs a lot of work. This could make the difference of UF being competing for the college playoff for at least a couple and perhaps several years. Huge disappointment.
