Jevon Kearse and honorable mention should be in top 25
ReplyDeleteFor not being a Gator fan you sure did your homework. Pretty solid list. Not saying I agree with the order but solid. Good job.
ReplyDeleteGotta include Judd Davis in at least the honorable mentions section.

ReplyDeletePretty Good Job... For Noles Fan!
Rex Grossman has to replace Kerwin Bell in Top 25. have no problem with Kerwin being #26 on that list.
How can you Honorable Mention Jevon Kearse, Trace Armstrong and Chris Collingsworth...and Include three guys that I can't even tell you "when" they played, or "what position" the played like Rick Casares? Kevin Carter? Jason Odom? (And I'm a life long Gator Fan!!)
Rick Casares - Running back - 1951-1953 Gainesvill Sun All Century Team Member - Miami Herald All Time Gator Team. Went on to star for Chicago Bears. Held Chicago Bears rushing records until Walter Payton came along.
ReplyDeleteJason Odom - Tackle - 1992-1995 - giving some love to offensive lineman
Kevin Carter - All American Defensive tackle 1994
All SEC 1994 and 1993 - Four year letterman - 1994 Lomabardi Award Finliast. 66 tackles 11.5 sacks in 1994. Sixth over all player chosen in 1995 NFL Draft.
U of F Hall of Fame Member - voted on 100th Anniversary All Gator Football Team
Kearse and honorable mention. SHould be top 25. should be top ten. maybe even top 5
ReplyDeleteDude that sent you email must not be very old if he doesn't know Kevin Carter or Jason Odom.... Leak is not a top 5 guy, especially not in front of Youngblood and Marshall. Replace Lilly with Reggie Nelson.
ReplyDeleteLeak does belong in top five. Did lead the Gators to a Nat. Champ. as quarterback. Is deserving. I like the top five. But I know it has to be hard to narrow it down to top 25 with so many Gators greats out there.

ReplyDeleteTell the "Dude" that "this Dude" that must not be very old, has been a Gator fan since Spurrier was throwing passes to Charlie Casey in 1963. Odom and Carter just didn't ring any bells, so they wouldn't have been on my list over Collinsworth, Kearse or Amstrong.
