Treon Harris transfers from UF; 7th QB transfer in 3 years
An interesting bit of news during the abyss that is late July college football news. Treon Harris offically left Florida. This means he is the 7th Florida QB to transfer since 2013 and:
Every #Gators QB to commit to UF during the Will Muschamp era has since transferred from the program. Pretty wild.

Impressive. The QB battle is now apparently between an Oregon State transfer and Purdue transfer Austin Appleby. I anxiously look forward to another thrilling 9-7 victory over Vanderbilt this fall.
I like our RB's but can't wait tohave a big bruising back rumbling through.
Seems one of Hoke's QBs was running with the 1s in spring practice.
To be honest, I'd probably argue it was a little of both.
The year was 2008 and there was a coach who wouldn't adjust to the talent on hand so they left. Let me fast forward to the story book end. We had just come off a stubborn lose to a very under rated Purdue team and the next challenge was a mountain of mediocrity that no one thought our upstarts had a chance to beat. Then early in the first quarter when the equipment guy went down with concussion like symptons on to the field came a mountain, er hill of a man with talent like Pat White except slower and with a weaker arm amd leadership like General Westmoreland it was the immortal Nick Sheridan. Over coming the handicap of lack of talent he showed that given the right amount of transfers and injurys anyone could end a winning Quarterback, We cheered as this was our championship. A WIN AGAINST Minnesota. Capping a masterful 3-9 first season for new head coach whats his name. Good coaches adjust to who they have not force squares into diamond.
threw the ball 60% of the time in his first year? That's adjustment because they didn't have a running game to speak until Minor went on a Minor rage late in the season. But don't let the narrative take over this post though.
When you have Threet and Sherdian who are both awful starting QBs, why not just go full fore on the transition to get a jump start on year 2?
Pretty sure he'd already moved and practiced there in spring ball.
One of the articles I read said this was within a week of him being officially announced as a WR. Seems reasonable to wonder if he wasn't happy about that development in particular
huh? there a joke here im missing?
the field day for fsu fans likely began several years ago
If another quarterback transfers it will be 4 years and 8 transfers.
The numbers would be coincidentally the same. 4 wins / years and 8 losses / qb transfers. Isnt that funny?
In other news...hey WD, I ordered $100 worth of the Adidas stuff that was on sale, 2 of the 9 items were out of stock and they refunded me the $20 and gave me a $20 gift card on top of it!!
Now I can purchase NIKE!!!
Sorry, there wasn't a UNIFORMZ/NIKE Thread today. I couldn't resist.
Still time
6272-1100-5004-7524 should be a few bucks left on it...enjoy it sir.
What a mess. McElwain shouldn't even be mentioned in the same paragraph as Harbaugh.
This is their 2017 QB commit who tweeted this after we beat Florida last year.
See you in 2017.

Okay
Jim McElwain and Jim Harbaugh are both college coaches. There. What are you going to do now?
I'm gonna get some fries and a pop and eat you, burger!
Lets just say it did not end well
I hope you're not suggesting these transfers are because of a fault with McElwain.
Because if you are, you're delusional.
By all accounts, he's a decent guy. He's a decent guy swimming through the morass that is the SEC. He's installing discipline and accountability -- something that program hasn't had in a while.
Last time that team had accountability the starting quarterback was Burt Reynolds
Burt Reynolds played at Florida State.

Pretty sure Treon essentially got kicked off the team, and this wasn't a voluntary transfer. He wasn't a part of the team from like January to just recently when he "returned to school and began working out"...whatever that means.
Kid had a long rap sheet of off-field issues. May have just hit strike #3, and Jimmy Mac told him to kick rocks.
When Florida scored their trickeration/desperation TD I thought to myself......I hope you enjoyed your one scoring drive.
