Who is under center for Florida?

It looked like the Florida Gators had finally solved their quarterback conundrum that plagued them in the Will Muschamp era with Will Grier shining in Jim McElwain’s system the first half of the year. That was until Grier was suspended for one calendar year in October and the offense was turned over to Treon Harris.

Harris went 4-4 down the stretch as the Gators offense regressed and his future with the team is in question. He’s been away from the team since January and may switch to receiver if he rejoins the team and Grier transferred out leaving McElwain with a big question at the most important position in football.

The answer could be Alabama and Oregon State transfer Luke Del Rio who is the leader in the clubhouse to win the job, but don’t sleep on early-enrolee Feleipe Franks from making it a tough decision for McElwain.
