    YouTube search Charlotte at Florida Atlantic football. Purdie can play, looks like he can run the UF offense.

    Should be. Quality, intelligent young man who showed some talent and a heckuva lot of cool given the circumstances he was put into.

    Max Brown sends his thanks to Billy Napier for taking Purdie out of the portal:

    Max Brown - Football - Charlotte Athletics

    Max is the heir apparent for starter at Charlotte now that Purdie has transferred.

    Stats of Charlotte QBs:

    Passing Player gp effic comp-att-int pct yds td lg avg/g

    Deshawn Purdie 9 136.2 100-200-6 50.0 1802 10 75 200.2

    Max Brown 5 94.6 43-93-6 46.2 561 3 48 112.2

    Trexler Ivey 8 114.0 34-59-2 57.6 326 3 28 40.8 Team 12 0.0 0-1-0 0.0 0 0 0 0.0

    Total 12 121.2 177-353-14 50.1 2689 16 75 224.1

    Deshawn is definitely a pocket passer. His QB sacks took his rushing yardage into the negative. He'll step up into the pocket first rather than run first. He'll have to get the ball out quicker in the SEC or he will be a punching bag.

    It's a high-risk reward ratio. 50% passing with average passes at just over 18 yards will yield high passing yardage. Purdie's 10:6 TD/INT ratio isn't bad when he is constantly throwing downfield, no dink and dunk with Purdie at Charlotte.

    I'm seeing a poor man's DJ Lagway with lots of upside. Nobody outside of Florida will talk or give credit for this pickup, but it is the best UF could have done with any incoming QB knowing they would at best be the #2 unless DJ Lagway is injured. Kudos to CBN and the recruiting staff for recognizing Purdie's potential and value to the Florida program.

    My daughter told me about the lambo; I have no idea nor care what he or anyone else drives. I’m guessing that was fabricated as well.
