Yeah, I saw that this morning. Zook sure knows how to put confidence back into his teenage players. What a moron.
That guy is getting it from all sides... The problem is, it's actually warranted...The column makes some great points...
It's a good thing I don't live in Gainesville. If I saw Zook in public I would ream him a new a$$hole. He NEVER takes responsibility or blame for anything, it's always the players fault. Well golly-gee dumba$$, over half of them are freshman and sophomores so I guess they do make mistakes. Radio Zook is a walking talking contradiction. We had a senior QB that was a Hesiman runner up in Grossman and he couldn't learn that piece of crap offense either. Now our frosh QB Leak can't learn it. It's apparent Ingler Martin can't learn it because if he could he would be the starter. So I guess all of Florida's QB's are dumb. Especially Grossman, he only learned the hardest offense in the NCAA and set multiple records yet couldn't grasp Zook and Fedora's dumbed down offense. Somebody should tell Zook and his staff they aren't coaching the way they need to. Zook is digging his own grave.
Don't drool too much, sat.'s Advocate had a article about Fla. drooling about playing Ol Miss, after TT put over 500 yds in the air on them, I guess its a different "system" down in Fla.. UF has lost 2 in a row and have revenge on their minds, it'll be a tough game next week.
Wow...Zook sounds like a complete moron! I mean, I can't stand UF, but I've got to feel bad for Leak (but just a little--he chose to go to UF ). I think everyone knows that the comments Zook made are the ones that a head coach SHOULD NOT make about a Freshman QB.
Zook gave Leak too long of a leash too soon...and now they're seeing the aftermath of rookie mistakes. The lsu D should eat his lunch...
Zook's offense Whether it is an experienced first round pick or a Parade All-American freshman at the helm, your offense must establish its "bread-and-butter" plays. During Dinardo's era, the off-tackle sweep was a big-time play that the Tigers could really lean on and count on for good results. Spurrier's teams used the fade route to perfection. Jimbo Fisher's offense uses hitches and bubble screens often to great success. No matter what the focus, you need the right players talent-wise along with quality coaches making the right calls at the right time. People like Lynn Amedee and Ron Zook don't get too far when they make mistakes with gameplan and play focus and then, to compound matters worse, blame 18-22 year olds for failing in situations where they almost seem to want the kid on the field to figure things out on his own. Mike Leach's offenses work whereever he goes. Texas Tech sliced up Ole Miss while Florida struggled. The main difference is flat out having the plan to succeed.
It is not even November yet and it looks like LSU will be able to eliminate Florida from the SEC East race with a win over the Gators this coming weekend. Tennessee and Georgia match up with only one loss each and it will probably take at least a 6-2 record to win the SEC East this year. With 3 losses in the SEC, the Gators will be out of it.
