Sources: Tennessee is moving on from starting quarterback Nico Iamaleava. Tennessee coach Josh Heupel informed the team of the decision at a team meeting this morning. Iamaleava missed meetings and practice on Friday, which was the driver of this decision.

Jake Fromm is the only QB in SEC history to win his division in each of his first three years as a starter.
Two years ago this week I watched @JacquezGreen running around doing all he could as a first year HC of a very young Manatee FB Team in its final week with a 2-7 record. Now in year 3 Manatee is in its final week with a 7-2 record and district champs. Letโs Go Coach!

RECRUITS: start saving your money for the summer college camps. Invest in your future, and stop giving it 2 Jordan, Nike, Jumpman โ๐พ #football#Recruiting101
Per source, well over half of Christian McCaffrey's four-year, $64 million extension is guaranteed. Also, a good signal from Panthers coach Matt Rhule to his team on the types of players the new regime will reward.
1.04 million kids play high school football....6,960 D1 scholarship, the most but hardest. D2 scholarships can be full or partial. D3 no scholarships. NAIA full & partial Thats it. ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ
Coaches have become lazy now. They wants kids with size & upside, instead of tough kids that can play the game. Some dont even wanna โcoachโ IMO, want ready made kids.
Top 3 RB in the State of Florida it's a damn shame this kid only has FIU people don't know what the hell they're missing out on and you see why coaches get fired all the time
As a former player, I absolutely respect your opinion, and there is nothing at all wrong with seeing a glass half full. Those are the steps in some cases, but in other cases, the losing continues. Coaches are fired all the time because of it. We don't know which path Napier is on
Recruits getting hood winked by these coaches. Choose a school that fits your skill set and get a degree. Have fun โ๐พ. Dont get caught up in these coaches. They come & go. A business. #recruiting
my teammate got this in the mail today, and tbh Im at a lost for words.. I also have locs, Tats, and NFL dreams too, these messages can not be tolerated, this was extremely inappropriate, racially biased, and selfish to feel like you even have a right to send this message #WeAre
Too many glaring weaknesses on the roster. OL bad, the tackles notably. Corners soft, one of them wont tackle. Nickel soft. Linebackers no impact on the games. No natural pass rusher. Safeties inexperienced. They young. Should get better.
4-star DL Chris McLellan just committed to @GatorsFB on @CBSSportsHQ.
He's now the highest-rated player in the #Gators' 2022 class (No. 101 overall in 247 Composite rankings)
Big get for whoever the next coach of Florida may be
Class jumps from No. 43 to No. 30.
If Napier loses Filsaime & Williams & ends up with a class outside the Top 10, thereโs really no reason for him to be in Gainesville any longer
Heโd be an elite recruiter without an elite recruiting class and a CEO that canโt figure out his OC, DC or STC hires. Not great #Gators
Going into the 2024 season, there are just 15 players on the roster from the 2022 recruiting cycle where Georgia signed 29 players.
48% of the class transferred out.
Another Florida transfer drops the HAMMER on the Gators ๐ณ๐
Princely Umanmielen who was the #2 overall DE in the transfer portal was asked about what part of his skill set he wants to improve & how the new staff was helping him.
He went on to say โHere (at Ole Miss) i feel like Iโm getting coached harder than I was at Floridaโ
โAt Florida it was almost like they were just telling me to go use my talentโ implying they had no game plan ๐ณ
โWhen I dropped back into coverage at Florida they would just tell me go here and the coaches here (at ole Miss) go into detail about what routes are being runโ
He ended it off with the HAMMER.
โI actually feel like Iโm being developed hereโ ๐ณ๐ณ
JJ Watt asked the Texans for his release, and the two sides have agreed to part ways. The best defensive player in franchise history is now finished in Houston, but he does want to play elsewhere.
Why 7 on 7 coaches charge kids for tryouts?They already know which kids going 2 make the the team. Helluva fundraiser with no overhead. Then use the connects with these kids to land a high school coaching job, or a college coaching job. I hate some of yall ๐. Kids jus the pawn
Not to mention the players coming from situations that are not good for them/ their future and having to go back to that. Football is a safe haven for so many people. We are more likely to get the virus in everyday life than playing football. Having a season also incentivizes -
This fall will be 20 years since Alex Brown last suited up for the #Gators but Brenton Cox can't stop thinking about him.
โGoing to try to beat the sack record this year. 13.โ

One thing I think the Gator Nation is probably tiring of is talk of playing hard and being competitive. That should be a given. There's no pat on the back for that again and again. At some point, it has to result in victories. That's the bottom line for a head coach.
Florida AD Scott Stricklin feels the program has switched jersey looks too frequently. The Gators will get back to rocking more traditional threads more regularly. 247sports.com/college/floridโฆ
