My bad, must have been looking at last years game in which he did not look impressive. Short highlights for last week’s game …
Per - Florida Gators - SEC Country … CRAZY numbers Florida commit DJ Lagway from through 4 games: 1,257 passing yards (73.4%), 17 TDs, 3 INTs, 207 rush yards, 4 TDs Lagway is ranked as the No. 2 QB in the Updated On3 Rankings
Is Mertz here for 2 years? I thought he was like a 5th or 6th year Senior already? Would be great if he is here another year to allow DJ to develop with not that much pressure. I know this is bad to say on my part, but I was extremely concerned about Mr. Mertz before the season started. The number of picks he had thrown at Wisconsin made me a bit of a doubter....... Had never seen him play before. After seeing him play very well the last several games, I do hope he can continue his progress here and even have one more year here at UF. He can throw with zip, can mentally process, and can run when needed with confidence. GO GATORS!!!!
I don’t think so. He started three years before coming to Florida. https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4426335/graham-mertz
Yeah, I know you're kidding, but it wouldn't surprise me if they did. I mean he committed to the Gators after all.
Ah thank you. I forgot about the COVID year. Huh, that would be pretty ideal if Lagway could understudy Mertz for a year before taking the reigns.
Counting on it. However it would be even idealer if Lagway makes Mertz his backup. Mertz can still teach and we'd finally have QB depth.
