The Thrill

[Barnhart] Moody might not be the answer for Florida: We recently read in the Gainesville Sun that running back Emmanuel Moody, the transfer from Southern Cal, is having problems picking up Dan Mullen’s offense. That’s curious because Moody has been with the team an entire year while sitting out due to NCAA transfer rules. Here is what head coach Urban Meyer told the Gainesville Sun: “He’s a little bit behind. I didn’t think he’d be that far behind because he was here all fall, but it seems like everything is new and it shouldn’t be that way. But he’s a talented guy.” Meyer also said: It’s too early to say exactly what his role will be.” I’m not sure what all that means for Moody and Florida, but it can’t be good.

That said, if in fact, a former Pac-10 freshman of the year can’t seem to grasp Herban and OC Dan Mullen’s offense, he will become about the 12th RB that hasn’t been able to get it in 4 years… Certain systems are running back killers. The Dan Marino system was one of those. Playing for the Dolphins was were good young running backs went to die. Just like Florida {Wizard of Odds].

Some pretty good running backs have been recruited to UF and have struggled in this offense.

Yeah, it was former RB coach Drayton’s fault
Work on blocking cause it is all about Tebow of Nazareth and Herban. (click to enlarge)

    Yes, he’s talented, but completely stupid. Having months to learn the play book and he still doesn’t have it suggests he can run, but he can’t read or comprehend.

    A person from Tennessee accusing people from other states of not knowing how to read. Now that’s funny!

    #4 – I read with the best of them. I can write complete sentences too. The quality of life a good education affords a person is amazing. Too bad the boys on the GAYtors roster are candidates for “A mind is a terrible thing to waste.”

    How can he run the ball when Tebow never hands it off?

    #7 – When Tebow fumbles, someone needs to pick it up and run. Perhaps that’s why they’re having trouble with the play book.

    MoonDog:
    You’re bragging about being able to write complete sentences? Nice.
