  • 2009 Florida Football Post-Game Quotes Urban Meyer Florida Head Coach Orange & Blue Debut April 18, 2009
    2009 Florida Football Post-Game Quotes Urban Meyer Florida Head Coach Orange & Blue Debut April 18, 2009 Opening Statement “First of all, I just want to thank everyone for coming. I think I could talk about our crowd for days. We had an excellent day and they were able to see some guys make some plays. John Brantley managed the game well, Jon Bostic battled for playing time, Frankie Hammond, Jr. finished an impressive spring, T.J. Lawrence, Jaye Howard, I could go on and on. But to have 65,000 people show up to this game when the fans knew they wouldn’t see much of Tim Tebow, Aaron Hernandez and Brandon Spikes is amazing. We had more people at our spring game than some schools have at a regular season game.” On the change of game format and not playing many defensive starters “Well we changed the game format to offense versus defense for a couple reasons. Mainly, it allowed us to substitute freely. Certain players need work and we also need to find some playmakers at certain positions. I know that you can’t coach scared but you never want to put players in danger. I have seen enough out of some guys and many of them have developed skill levels already.” On Jon Bostic “I love that guy. I love his professionalism. His father played in the NFL and when we recruited him he told us that he would be serious about his job, take care of himself off the field and he has done all of those things.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: John Manzo (586-713-9347) GATORADE® NATIONAL FOOTBALL PLAYER OF THE YEAR: JT DANIELS Houston Texans Quarterback Surprises Standout with Elite Honor Santa Ana, Calif. (December 19, 2017) – In its 33rd year of honoring the nation’s best high school athletes, The Gatorade Company today announced JT Daniels of Mater Dei High School (Santa Ana, Calif.) as its 2017-18 Gatorade National Football Player of the Year. Daniels was surprised with the news by Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson. Check out the surprise video here. “JT really deserves to be this year’s Gatorade National Football Player of the Year because he represents everything the award stands for,” said Watson. “Not only has JT excelled on the field, but he’s also a good student and a positive role model in the community. I’m excited to follow his career and watch all the things he will accomplish in the future.” The award, which recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the field, distinguishes Daniels as the nation’s best high school football player. A national advisory panel comprised of sport-specific experts and sports journalists helped select JT from nearly 1 million high school football players nationwide. Daniels is now a finalist for the prestigious Gatorade Male High School Athlete of the Year award, to be presented at a special ceremony prior to The ESPY Awards in July. The state’s returning Gatorade Player of the Year, the 6-foot-1, 205-pound junior quarterback had led the Monarchs to a 15-0 record and the CIF state championship.
