    Curious were you one of those fools screaming for him last year over EJ and then patting yourself on the back when he looked great against Utah?

    Some tried to blame his mediocre senior season on coke usage.

    There was never any evidence of it, just slander, in my opinion.

    Shula wouldn't have drafted him if that was even remotely true. QB with a
    coke problem wouldn't have lasted 6 months in Miami in 1983, let alone had a Hall of Fame career.

    Nope. Actually, I was one of those fools that thought - "what's all the hype?" Guys average at best, and was never "in it" from my perspective.

    Just glad "that's that."

    Looks like the mods have several posts to delete. Let's be fair. My post of "THANK YOU GOD" was deleted. There are now several posts that express the same sentiment.

    That was my gut as well. I wasn’t sure if it was supposed to mean that his tweet had the characteristics of a drive-by shooting.

    Well, in fairness, you failed to place a comma correctly. This is GC. We don’t tolerate that kind of lazy failure to punctuate. Get your house in order.

    How the hell are the mods allowing such open bashing of a Gator player who carried himself with class and gave his best? Such weird selective moderation here

    Good luck AR in the NFL. Do not be surprised if you end up being a running back or a slot reciever.

    I’ll bet that “average” guy goes in the first two rounds.

    Really kinda sad.

    Good luck to him. I appreciate what he has done for the Gators, but really would be surprised to see him succeed at the next level. He has a ton of potential but also a 2 tons of development to do yet. I just don't see him getting that developmental opportunity at the next level.

    FWIW they don't do the wonderlic league wide anymore, but individual teams may do it on their own.

    Let’s add some color to your prediction. What team in your opinion is going to use its first or second pick on a quarterback who needs as much work as AR?

    This seems more than a little harsh.

    He showed flashes of uncanny athleticism - but nothing more. He was a good Gator and carried himself well, so kudos to him in this regard.

    But at the end of the day, he is a mediocre qb with nothing to hang his hat on. I will be shocked if he has any success in the nfl. Baffling to me that somebody, somewhere that he trusts is encouraging him to leave... the only thing that makes sense to me is that he has been made aware that the qb spot for next year is wide open, and he sees a lot of bench riding.. Good luck, AR!! (you're going to need tons of it)
