Behind Will Grier. Almost every QB in the nation would sit behind him.

Another kid who had to transfer to get a chance. Grier was garbage at UF even with the PEDs. Some kids just need a change for the light to come on. Also, WVU runs a QB friendly system. Don't forget how Diaz ate that **** up in a bowl game a couple years ago.

@Coach Macho summed up it well.

- Breakdown of TDs/INTs (from what I could see)- Rosier pretty TD to Harley up seam, short fade TD to Wiggins, INT to Frierson. Perry TD run, INT to Derrick Smith off tipped ball. Williams two TDs to Jeff Thomas.

- My biggest takeaway was Jarren Williams. He gets better every time I see him. He split his reps between the 3rd team (7-on-7, mostly walk-ons) and the 2nd team. He completed balls with both units. Saw him drill a ball outside the numbers from the opposite hash and hit Thomas twice for pretty TDs. The ball comes out quick and accurate. Love his decisiveness. He threw a strike to Hightower on 3rd down which stood out to me. There is a TON of football left (and the QBs aren't getting hit), but Williams neds to be taken seriously as a potential starting QB this season.

- The DEs are very impressive. Rousseau dominated, Patchan abused Herbert and Garvin made his usual plays. The thing I noticed about Rousseau is that he made a bunch of plays against the run. He can get low and tackle like a little guy, and he covers so much ground with his length and COD whether it's backside or playside.

- The OL had a rough day. It was a rotating door at RT. I saw Brown, Campbell, Herbert, Hillary, Mahoney and Gauthier there (I may have missed somebody). Campbell is going to be good but struggled today. We looked the best when Gauthier moved to RT in the second half. Watch that going forward.

- Rosier and Perry both struggled. Rosier missed a lot of open guys, even if he had time. He did hit a nice pass to Thomas. Perry had the worst protection but also missed easy throws. I remember one to Cager on a rollout that was ugly. He should have more command at this point. He did make some nice plays with his legs.

- Gilbert Frierson flashed. He followed up an INT with a breakup and a physical tackle. Like his energy.

No need to overreact, we stayed healthy and there is talent all over the field. Spring scrimmages are about learning and putting players in the right seat on the bus.

Rosier is who he is regarding accuracy...frustrating

Grier was very good before he got suspended. Their record and his stats don't lie. Kid was an idiot, but he was very good. Harris was horrible.
 
This is exactly why no matter what the Qb this yr should not be Malik Rosier. Look at this, Perry played like ****, and still basically played the same as Rosier. Jarrens stats could just be inflated because he went vs the 3s.

Idgaf who starts, just don't let it be Rosier. Wanna see what Cade can do though

Miller had very good feet. He just wasn’t the “toughest” after contact...and he wasn’t all that great in the open field.

There’s a misconception that if you’re not Reggie Bush.......you don’t have agility. You need agility to find the hole and attack quickly. Portis comes to mind.

Todd Gurley isn’t a flashy guy, but he’s plenty quick.

If Lo is stiff - it’s gonna be a problem for him at this level.

Agree if hes completely stiff hes in trouble, i never understood why we didnt go hard after shivers or the other tiny kid who was killin it in sfla. I do like Lingard but they always bring in those shifty guys to

Always thought Lingard ran stiff and didn’t have much wiggle, but never posted it because I knew the response would be lit 😆 considering his super talent and Ambassador status. Lamar Miller is a perfect comparison in my opinion as well. I think Homer and Deejay have just a little more wiggle and are tougher with QB protection for him to overtake them this season.

If we cant master the simple things why make the offense harder..

Creating a simpler offense would make things harder?

I think Macho is saying our system isn’t QB friendly....meaning we’re asking our guys to do things they’re just not good at.

If that’s the case, you simplify the offense and create easy reads/designs to get completions.

You should be able to take what your guys are good at it....and morph the offense into something sensible without becoming incredibly predictable and easy to stop. The best OCs do this all the time.

If Richt’s offense can’t make that happen - it sucks.

I love ripping Gators as much as anybody, but he threw 66% for 1200+ yards and won every game he played in and he was suspended in early October.

Very good is a stretch , I’d say above average. Compared to the other qbs I reckon that looks “ very good”.

Perry was #2 by Orange Bowl.

Actually, he was splitting second team reps with Shirreffs. Perry was never going to play in the Orange Bowl, so enough of this "he was number 2" nonsense. Richt might have wanted Perry to get reps to give him a little confidence going into the spring.

"*Perry's not the guy. I thought he looked okay a couple weeks ago but after seeing him in live action today it's no bueno. I know that's gonna disappoint a lot of people that thought he'd be our savior but i eluded to his flaws when watching his high school tape. He wasn't coached, he was playing junkyard ball. (toss it up!) "

But but but, someone has a 5 second clip of him doing a juke move last year in practice. For this reason he is a sure fire starter, and certainly better than everyone else on the roster. Didn't you get the memo?

Seriously, though, far too many people crowned Perry before he set foot on campus. Then he started hanging out "practicing" with Winston. I'm not sure what the **** he was learning from that *** clown, but it must have been how to enjoy college life, not read a D. Maybe where to shop for crab legs?

"Master Winston, when will it be time for me to start?"

"Young NKosi, when you snatch the crab leg out of my hand, it will be time for you to start".
 
Remember the LSU QB Harris who had all the same physical ability as Perry who was horrible there then even worse at UNC? Just because you have good physical skills as a QB doesn’t mean you’ll succeed at this level.

I can accept Perry’s struggles last year as a true freshmans late enrollee. But to see him still flailing and passing at 40% is concerning.

The truly exceptional college QBs always flash early. They might not be great early, but they flash. Haven’t heard about or seen any of that from Perry after a year in the system.

Jarren went with the 2s. he was 6/8 86 yds 2TD Rosier and Perry also played with 2s btw as well as the 1s.

He also played in 7v7 Separate stats 5/8 71yds
