[dlo13]

How can anybody with even marginal talent not crack that UT WR rotation?

It doesn't mean, necessarily, that he will transfer, but that he's exploring options.

Dean is currently still in school at UCLA, and intends to finish out the school year.

There has been rampant speculation that Dean could transfer after he came to UCLA as a highly-touted prospect from Katy (Tex.) High but didn't crack the rotation last season as a freshman.

Guess he got off that juice......

I can think of many other quarterbacks that I would put far and above him. I'm not saying he couldn't at the end of his career, but untilhe does it...

He would need a Heisman (or two) and a couple of NC's, some statistical records, and an impressive W-L count IMO to be put in that conversation.

So basically, he have to become Tim Tebow

 

[gatorb807]

Vince Young is the best college football player I've seen in my lifetime, Tommie Frazier is second and I was young don't remember a lot just that runvs UF

If Tebow leads the Gators to another Championship....he will take that spot on my list.

Preview 2009 - Way Too Early Bowl Projections
Alabama WR Julio Jones		By Staff CollegeFootballNews.com Posted May 4, 2009 It's May. Yeah, the bowl season is still seven months away, but that doesn't mean it's not goofy fun to speculate. From the MagicJack to the Cotton, the New Orleans to the Maaco, here are the ridiculously way-too-early projections for all the non-BCS bowl games.
[font=verdana, arial, sans serif] 2009-2010 Bowl Projections Non-BCS Bowls - May[/font] [font=verdana, arial, sans serif][size=-1] - 2010 BCS Projections [/size][/font] [font=verdana, arial, sans serif][size=-1]It's May, so let's get a few things out of the way before proceeding with the goofy but fun exercise to get the fires burning in the off-season. First, this is a nearly-impossible puzzle to put together correctly in the first week of December with all the inside information possible, much less now, and there will be changes in the bowl tie-ins, the seedings, and the conference pecking order before the dust settles at the end of the season. Some of the bowls aren't even sure which teams from which conferences will be available to them, so while a slot might make sense, things get out of whack when bowls jump the gun with invites or go with geographical matchups over good football pairings. The goal here is to attempt to account for the self-interests of the bowls that'll want to sell tickets and generate publicity. More on that in a moment. Second, remember that schedules mean everything. Some teams might be better than others but are predicted to go to lesser bowl games because their records might not be as strong as other possible choices. The best educated guess is taken at every turn. Third, not everyone will get the call. There are only so many available slots, so several worthy teams, especially from the MAC and Sun Belt, might get shut out due to a lack of at-large bids available. Finally, don't yell at us if you don't like where your team is predicted to go. This will all change this before the season starts and will be updated every week throughout the season. If it looks like some team that we have playing in December looks like a world-beater, it'll obviously be predicted to go to another bowl as the year goes on. One more thing before kicking this off. There's a big, fat matzo ball hanging out there that'll determine most of the bowl selections: the economy. With the concept of disposable income a distant memory for many college football fans, the bowls will be working extra hard to make sure that they can get at least one team with a fan base within driving distance. The BCS bowls will still try to get the best matchups possible, but for the mid-range bowls it'll likely be all about geography.[/size][/font] MagicJack St. Petersburg Bowl Dec. 19 / 8 p.m. ET St. Petersburg, Fl.

Preview 2009 - The Way-Early BCS Projections
		By Staff CollegeFootballNews.com Posted May 4, 2009 It's May, but it's never too early to think about the first week of January. While there might be some changes and different thoughts as the summer goes on, here is the first look at what the BCS matchups, including the national championship, might be.
[font=verdana, arial, sans serif] 2009-2010 Bowl Projections BCS Picks - May[/font] [font=verdana, arial, sans serif][size=-1] - 2009-2010 Way-Too-Early Non-BCS Bowl Projections [size=-1]Don't get too mad/excited quite yet. The idea is to look into the crystal ball into the schedules and the talent on the top teams to figure out what the big money matchups might be. Remember, no one, nowhere would've ever predicted in a million years that Kansas and Illinois would make the BCS in 2007 (for the 2008 BCS games). We told you Hawaii was going to be in, but that was still a bit of a wacky call. Obviously the projections and predictions will change weekly during the season. Rose Bowl presented by Citi Jan. 1. Pasadena, Calif. ABC *BCS vs. BCS (Big Ten Champion vs. Pac 10 Champion, if available) Way Too Early Projection: Ohio State vs. Oklahoma Top 5 Others Considered: 1) USC, 2) Penn State, 3) Michigan State, 4) Oregon, 5) Texas How many times has Ohio State been to the Rose Bowl under Jim Tressel? Zero. The Buckeyes haven't been in Pasadena since the thrilling 1997 Rose Bowl win over Arizona State, and they haven't played Oklahoma since a 24-14 win in Norman in 1983. The Sooners beat Washington State 34-14 in the 2003 Rose Bowl and have lost five BCS games (and five of six bowl games) ever since. The Rose Bowl will likely get its second choice of at-large teams, and while it'll be pressured to take Boise State, it'll most likely take the Big 12's second best team. Allstate Sugar Bowl Jan. 1 New Orleans, La. FOX *BCS vs. BCS (SEC Champion, if available) Way Too Early Projection: Ole Miss vs. West Virginia Top 5 Others Considered: 1) LSU, 2) Georgia, 3) Florida, 4) Alabama, 5) Boise State Assuming the SEC champion is No. 1 and off to the national championship, the Sugar Bowl will get the first choice of teams and it'll most certainly take the second best SEC team. Ole Miss, Alabama, LSU, Georgia or even Florida; throw a dart and you might have the right SEC representative. Boise State might be the call if the Fiesta doesn't have an interest, but geographically is makes more sense for the Broncos to go to Glendale and the Big East champion, possibly West Virginia, to go to New Orleans. The Mountaineers stunned Georgia the last time they were in the Sugar, played in Atlanta in 2006. Tostitos Fiesta Bowl Jan. 4 / 8:00 ET Phoenix, Ariz. FOX *BCS vs. BCS (Big 12 Champion, if available) Way Too Early Projection: Texas vs. Boise State Top 5 Others Considered: 1) Oklahoma, 2) Oklahoma State, 3) Penn State, 4) Ohio State, 5) Nebraska With all due respect to Oklahoma State and Nebraska, the October 17th Texas vs. Oklahoma showdown will likely determine the Big 12's automatic Fiesta Bowl bid. The Fiesta would LOVE to get the second Big Ten team in Glendale, and will consider West Virginia, but it would likely go after Boise State, because it makes a bit more geographic sense. The Orange picks ahead of the Fiesta in the at-large pecking order and isn't going to want the Broncos. FedEx Orange Bowl Jan. 5 Miami Gardens, Fla. FOX *BCS vs. BCS (ACC Champion, if available) Way Too Early Projection: Virginia Tech vs. Penn State Top 5 Others Considered: 1) North Carolina, 2) Georgia Tech, 3) Pitt, 4) Clemson, 5) Miami The Big Ten will likely get two teams into the BCS, and assuming the Sugar Bowl gets the first pick of automatic teams and will take an SEC team, and if USC gets into the national title and the Rose Bowl gets the first or second pick, that'll mean the No. 2 Big Ten team will either go to the Fiesta or the Orange. The Orange might give thought to West Virginia and its rabid fan base, but the game would get more overall attention by taking Penn State or Ohio State. Virginia Tech has one of the easiest/most favorable schedules of all the ACC teams that'll be in the hunt for Miami. Even so, if you want to argue that North Carolina, Georgia Tech, Miami, Clemson, Florida State, or some other ACC team might be here, you have a solid chance of being right. BCS National Championship Jan. 7. Pasadena, CA FOX *BCS #1 vs. BCS #2 Way Too Early Projection: USC vs. Florida Top 5 Others Considered: 1) Texas, 2) Oklahoma, 3) Ohio State, 4) West Virginia, 5) LSU After winning three straight national championships, the SEC champion will likely be automatically in if all things are equal. The Texas vs. Oklahoma winner will likely have an inside track, but that team will have a landmine or two to deal with and probably won't go unbeaten. If USC beats Ohio State in Columbus, and doesn't brain-cramp in Pac 10 play, it'll play an SEC team in a bowl game for the first time since losing to Auburn 16-7 in the 1987 Citrus Bowl. The Trojans will likely drop one game with a brutal road schedule, but it still might not be enough to keep them out of the title shot.[size=-1] [/size][/size][/size][/font]

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

I'm interested to see how much the loss of Percy hurts UF. This year. I know they got Debose, but Percy Jr. he is not.

 

[gunna get it]

we'll see

I think Debose will be the next great UF offensive player

 

[november33rd]

Debose isn't gonna do anymore his first two years than Deonte has done.
