After watching Florida RB Matt Jones really start to come on late last season...had a helluva TD run vs. a good FSU defense....and considering the addition this year of the all time leading H/S rusher in the state of Florida.... Fred Taylor's son Kelvin ( God I'm old )....I think UF's rushing attack this year will be as good as it's been in a long long time: "Jones was the most impressive offensive player of the day. He caught every pass thrown his way, unlike Friday when he had a drop. He was even better carrying the ball, especially on outside runs and in open space. *As good as Jones played, don't hand him the reins from Mike Gillislee just yet. Mack Brown and Kelvin Taylor looked strong in their own right, with both backs making marvelous moves in the hole. Although Jones has three inches and more than 10 pounds on Brown and Taylor, they appear to be better runners between the tackles. It's going to be a competitive race this spring and in fall camp for the starting job."
And the Muschamp era continues to progress. Strong defense and a running game to pound the ball down the other teams throat. I look for Jones and Taylor to both get a lot of touches. Mack Brown seems like the odd man out to me and he came to Florida with a pretty good reputation out of High School.
The Florida team that beat TexA&M, LSU and FSU was the type of team that Muschamp is crafting. Get a few tweaks out ( Georgia performance on offense ) and Muschamp might just have a championship team at some point soon.
Terry, we will keep our Mack Brown and you can keep yours. I think we got the coach we wanted out of Texas. To bad about your Mack Brown though, he has had a good career but it does seem he is struggling now. I hope for you sake he doesn't stay past his effective date like Bobby Bowden did. Of course I liked it when Bowden stayed around so long.
....oooooh burn... lol Agreed also on BB sticking around far too long..... for nole fans anyway. :wink: Jimbo may also be stuck in a rut hopefully. For Muschamp.....the monkey getting ever heavier on his back now seems to be his old alma mater.....the Georgia Bulldogs.
