Grier is not even on the roster anymore. Read two weeks ago he transferred but not sure where...
This makes Eason to UF even more likely...
Haven't seen or heard this anywhere. Link?

Evan Shirreffs 39 tds and 4 int's his senior season, so I guess that means he will be the starter when Kaaya leaves?

Thanks, Big O. THose numbers are pedestrian too. I was hoping the junior numbers I mentioned were an aberration, but it looks like the senior numbers are nothing to write home about either.
I was one of the only guys on here who was critical of Olsen before he got here, and a big part of that was based on the fact that he didn't dominate HS competition. Guys lambasted me for being critical of Olsen, but, as it turned out, his game had massive holes in it.
You don't have to be a 50 TD guy in HS to be a great college QB, but I always look for QBs that dominate their competition and are very accurate passers with excellent TD/INT ratios. Accuracy is a pretty tough thing to improve, and accuracy is the number 1 thing you should look for in a QB assuming he has a good enough arm to compete at this level. You don't usually see inaccurate QBs get appreciably more accurate.
I think Matt Barkley's Senior numbers in high school were kinda bad. He threw like 18 INTs.

Off the top of my head: Jeff Driskel, Kevin Olsen, Gray Crow....all QB's who did nothing in High school and went on to do nothing in college.
The lack of production in HS from a QB is a HUGE Red Flag.
I do too.I foresee a Driskell-esque career for him at UF.
He would play right away and Grier would come back after some games. If Eason doesn't look like a top tier QB right away he could set himself up for 2-3 years on the bench since they like Grier so much. At Miami he would get a year to sit. So when it's his turn he's fully ready to go. I think the smarter decision is wait and learn behind Kayaa and Richt for a year and then use his pure talent to become a star.
Eason would be a great get, but he isn't the priority.
Allison is a stud in his own right, and we need to close on other key positions.
