As reported first by Jonathan Ford of @BleedTechBlue, former 5-star QB Jeff Driskill is leaving Florida and headed to Louisiana Tech.

Not so fast Jonathon Ford....reported in the Charlotte Observer is Driskel has asked to be released from Florida so he can finish at DUKE of theACC.....to be continued. Interested in a wager?

Who cares he sucks.

 

[ggmike1992]

I second Marine's comment.

 

[herdfan429]

Yeah he has been less than impressive at Florida

 

[marshallsig]

Why do we even care. He is not very good.

 

[herdgadfly]

Driskel's stats are not very impressive and he has been blamed for much of Florida's problems with their offense.

Here is the Duke rumor from 12/27/14:

Driskel to LaTech rumor

 

[GreenDuke]

Driskill to Duke was a long shot, never going to happen. I understand he is a fine student but probably doesn't want to tackle Duke grad school when he is trying to audition for the league. Way to time consuming.

Last time the Herd got a florida transfer at qb wevwon a national title. Kresser

 

[Marine03]

So you're saying La Tech is going to win a national title sissy? Otherwise, what's your point?

 

[Bleed_Kelly_Green]

With all due respect to Kresser...

Driskel won't be throwing to Randy Moss against a bunch of 1-AA defenses.

Once again sisters chimes in with another POINTLESS post. I'm glad you're still batting 1.000 in that dept sisters.

 

[Herd Fever]

Driskal has no shot at the NFL. This transfer is because he has no shot of starting at Florida next year

 

[BT4373]

There are so many examples of the rivals star system being way wrong.

 

[sistersville]

No point just a fact. From my seat Driskel cant beat out Birdsong.what point are u all making? LA tech is now the leauge's best?

 

[cocky jeremy]

Good. Let him go there. Then we won't have to worry about them beating us next year.

I think the bigger thing may be the effect Driskel's transfer can have on J'Mar Smith. I'm assuming Driskel will have two years of play time left, and kids don't want to sit around for very long these days.

Not saying that he will decide to commit to Marshall, but he may well decide to commit elsewhere. Maybe somewhere the Herd wouldn't have to worry about him.
