With all that sitting around - Debose can't study the playbook, watch a ton of film, practices - and learn the plays? Seems to me like - that is what you do if you are injured? If you're injured - don't you spend more time studying - not less time?

Last season for him involved surgery and rehab, not exactly condusive for learning a system. In addition, Urban indicated they had to simplify things for Debose, which allowed him to practice well enough this week to earn playing time. :D ----- Original Message ----- From: Keith Baldwin <mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, September 27, 2010 10:23 AM Subject: RE: [gatortalk] FW: [gatornews] [Foxsportsflorida.com] Gator offense finds its identity We have 4 and 5 star receivers and QB that have been in system for years - and now that it is their turn to step up into the limelight - we don't have confidence in them or they don't have confidence ?!?! That says - serious coaching problems. Why is the defense able to play - and now start - so many true freshmen? And have confidence in them? Granted defense is easier than offense - but we are comparing true freshmen on defense versus offensive guys that have been in the system for years. How are other teams - like Cam Newton at Auburn, Ingrahm and Richardson at Alabama, Lattimore at South Carolina - able to do it? Oliver - I am not going off on you - but on this topic - all of these excuses - for why players are not ready to play after several years in the system. Debose sat out all last year - and this year he doesn't know the plays? What the heck was he doing last year while sitting around rehabing? Why didn't they have some graduate assistant sitting there next to the hot tub quizzing him on the plays? There are serious problems in developing these studs - and all I've heard are excuses. I am not calling for firing the coaches - obviously they do some good things. But to not have these guys ready to play is inexcusable and speaks of a major problem. I don't know what the fix is - but then again I am not being paid $3 million (or whatever) to fix it. We just wasted four games teaching guys how to block, run routes, and snap the ball. Maybe we should go back to a JV team? That is what schools use to do to develop players so that once they hit the big time - they were ready. This is what I hope Foley is asking Urban Meyer.

It's the receivers who weren't ready to go.

"I want to say we were fifty-fifty run, pass on all those big drives we had. (We had) a lot of first down mixing (the run with) the drop back and the play action pass and we're going to move in that direction. We have to. Now that we have confidence in our receivers that's the direction we're gonna go." -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us
