I agree Leon.
I remember when SOS was at UF, he noted that the trouble with a lot of QB prospects is that they are constantly being told how wonderful they are, and when they get to college, they just can't deal with criticism and being held to a higher standard than they were in high school. It takes a certain amount of inner strength to stand up to the criticism and to recognize that the coach is just trying to make you a better player. Obviously, Danny, Shane, and Rex had it. Terry Dean and Doug Johnson seemed to have issues. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

Spurrier on QB replacements Well said Ken. What Spurrier said was what any honest supervisor of human performance should say. He gave a straight-forward appraisal of performance problems and discussed possible repercussions if improvement didn't occur. Who could ask for better supervision?

Spurrier on QB replacements He said that if Garcia doesn't play better than he has been, their offense will be limited. He also said that he's got a good freshman who has been working hard, who may be ready to come off the bench if he's called on. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

Spurrier on QB replacements Well, SOS is still messing with his QB. Did you read what he said about Garcia? If you want to play for him, you've got to be able to accept criticism. A good work ethic and a serious attitude are also essential. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

Spurrier on QB replacements I would like to know if that's a real and accurate quote. It does sound in character for SOS, and I don't doubt that what he says is true. We certainly know that Doug played minor league baseball that summer and did show up in August out-of-shape, or as Doug put it, he was "in baseball shape," not football shape. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.
