He's from here, they love him down here, and they will pray with him down here. Good deal all around ...

Well, they do love him. I guess Miami might be a good team for him as well

. . .he's from that area (nearby St Augustine) and close enough to Gainesville where his fanbase is still huge.

But from what I've read, the GM there will not have him as a QB, but rather as a hybrid TE/FB/place-kick holder. If he's too full of himself (the sin of pride, doncha know?) to see himself as anything other than a QB, then fuck him, his loss, not ours, not the NFL's.
