    That injury plagued secondary is concerning. I hope we find some guys back there that can stay available.

    Listening to Shane Matthews on the radio was outstanding! He knows football and his Gators. It seemed hard for him to contain his excitement. Loved to hear him compare young Mr. Brown to a cross between Ike, Reidel and Jaquez! Go Gators!

    Great shot of Baugh. Our running back room should be excellent this year.

    Are you talking about Jakobi Jackson? He had a huge game.

    KD Daniels had no stats and I don't recall his name coming up on the audio stream.

    Our roster is busting at the seams... I will give Napier 100% credit for building this and it is amazing. However, he has zero margin. He put this in place and it looks like it could be a machine. Something bad happens and he doesn't get another chance - at least not from me. Go Gators!!

    He was supposed to be the better running back in last year’s class coming in - and then Baugh surprised everyone…
    Would hate to see him transfer but would understand if he thinks he’s being overlooked.

    He didn't play. Every other RB did, but not him. I haven't heard about an injury, so not playing is concerning.

    I was hoping for him to breakout this spring; it didn't happen. We'll see what happens next.

    Is Daniels really smaller? I thought he had good size.

    That’s pretty good size for a running back to me. Maybe he could add a few pounds but that’s not bad. I hear he has great top end speed.
