    Lets see... Antuan Powell left the Gators and led the nation in sacks. My prediction.... Gavin Hill will go back to Edge and lead FAMU/Conference in sacks.

    And didn't Houston almost lead the NFL and sack his rookie year? He couldn't get snaps here, I seem to think hearing he was too slow or something

    And Toney was just a gadget player until he became a receiver. There usually is noone to blame about the discrepancy. It's just development finally meets up with opportunities.

    We got to watch Tony's development, but I also read things with players that said it was very clear that more talented players weren't getting to play over less talented players and Houston was one of those. I read where a player said clearly trask was the better player than Frank, and there was no doubt in their mind as teammates

    Yes, there was favoritism. I won't defend Mullen, but a lot of Houston's excellence must have been on the practice field. He was a mixed bag of results when he got time. It was probably a good move for him to transfer.

    If a player can’t make an All-Conference list in a lesser conference such as the MAC, MEAC, or MWC, they probably weren’t cut out to start at a P4 powerhouse to begin with.

    That one was always a head-scratcher to me. I still remember his hit on UGa's 2nd team QB after Bennett got hurt in 2020. I think that dude is still seeing stars. It sure looked like he could play while he was in that game.

    I remember making a big fuss that we didn’t recruit him hard enough outta HS as he was a local Gainesville kid. Kid went to Bama and did absolutely nothing

    At the same time, no shame not cracking the lineup at Bama with their WR corp. If you're not top 6, might not see the field. But I see a total of 12 WRs on their 2024 roster and only two in their 2025 class so it would not appear he was recruited over or they are carrying so many WRs that he needed a roster with space. UF for instance shows 18 total WRs and we landed a slew this cycle.

    I remember that. I didn't really understand your fascination with him, but he was one of the better players from the area.
