So you're saying it's impossible to Coach Florida players how to block?

It's a shame he didn't fit our style of play--I liked the kid a lot but there was never much of a pocket for him to work with and the kid couldn't run well. I know you're partially kidding/baiting but CWT would have had to coach up everyone else to support his abilities, there wasn't much he could do to change MW's skill set.

Correct on all points

Agreed. CWT had this crazy idea when he first took the job at USF that he was going to make our offense play like Stanford East. Little did he know that USF has always had trouble recruiting the big OL that you need to make it work. He finally snapped out of it after he failed for two seasons and went with and offense that QF ran well with who basically saved his job. Mike White is and will always be a prostyle QB and same thing can be said with BB. These don’t work well with USF. Just the reality of it.

No, I'm just disappointed in your low expectations for this great USF Football program.  What would CJL do?

Best Pro Style QB to ever come out of USF, it's a shame CWT couldn't coach him up.

Shame Mike couldn’t change his style or at least hold onto the ball.

i think his ability to make an NFL roster says more about the lack of talent in the league than his ability.

Read about Mike White and think about Alex McGough who is on the roster of the Texans.  From Gaither to FIU to Seattle practice squad last year, to Jags and now to Houston.  Jags called him and wanted him back after Foles went down and offered him a roster spot.  Texans decided to match the roster spot to keep him.  One of our USF assistants liked him at the time he was being recruited but the head coach had no interest.

Sounds like it might have worked out better for him that USF missed out

and for us considering he was there the same years we had Flowers. Flowers numbers were light years better both as a passer and runner in college.

Very true-- what he wrote that was a little alarming to me was seeing that he was a Gaither HS player. You would think USF/Taggart would have been a little more interested from the local recruiting angle.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
