Last year, you can get some momentum going for the Florida people.

And what happened?

They didn't.

They didn't get the momentum.

And Cam Ward pulls it all the way down and shows everybody.

Shows everybody in the stadium.

Look at my ass.

But I think Florida goes down there and gets revenge.

And gets revenge.

And DJ Lagway chose him his ass.

What is up, everyone? Thanks for joining us on another edition of Crane and Company for a daily watcher. Our listener, we appreciate it if you're not. Welcome home. All right, football's here.

Let's all get excited. Let's all get emotional. Guys, we are rocking and rolling with these predictions. We've done Bama. We've done Georgia. We've done Ohio State. We've done Michigan. We've done Oklahoma. We've done Auburn. We've done LSU. And we have so much more to go. And today, we're taking a stop down in Gainesville, where the confidence level, a little bit different heading into this year with Billy Napier. Is the record going to be different? That is what we're going to get into, and that's a great tease. David Cohn, former Michigan quarterback, my brother, former Western State, Colorado, wide receiver, Blaine Crane. To my right, everybody had left, well, pretty much everybody. Not everyone. Shout to your boy. And a couple others, maybe one other here on the set,

believed that Billy Napier was going to survive at Florida. It turns out he did. Now, it wasn't pretty.

Got their ass beat by Miami. You got rolled by Texas as well. But now you turned it around at the

end. I know DJ Lagway, we've talked about his health. I look at this team, David, and I want to start with you. And the thing that intrigues me the most isn't Eugene Wilson on the outside or Dallas Wilson, who, you know, I know he's got a little leg deal, but it seems like he's going to be fine. He's going to be a freak as a freshman. But it's the line of scrimmage. And one of the things I was talking with Feinbaum the other day was that I think Florida at the end of the year could have a top 10, possibly top seven, maybe even top five line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, which at the end of the day, even with this brutal schedule we're going to go through, it gives you a chance of whenever you game you're playing. If you guys missed our top 25 players in the SEC, you should go check it out on YouTube. I mean, it was just littered with Florida players in the front seven from offense and defense, just like what you're talking about. To me, it's just how healthy is DJ Lagway going to be? We talked about an upper body and lower body injury coming into camp. And now, what's the update now? Is there something else? There was like a cash drain, but apparently word out of practices, he's fine. The, you know, the ball's coming out of his hand really good if you're worried about the shoulder. I think the worry is that these things are just piling up. Right. It's like multiple things. That's what they are for me, just because this is a league where if you come into the season healthy, it's tough enough to get through. When you don't come in healthy, that's where I have a lot of questions, because in terms of his playmaking ability, there really is no ceiling. I mean, it reminds me a lot of Chris Leak out there wearing that orange and blue, the way he throws the football. Yeah, just physically, just a mass of human team human. Just absolutely spin it. But Blaine, when you look at this Ford of team and you look at DJ, it's not just the physical part of it when we're talking about the injury, but it's also the mental part and it's not just for DJ, being able to turn it on and take off and be able to feel like he's able to be aggressive and set the tone. But it's play calling as well.

You know, having a quarterback that is a runner but is beat up negates a third of the player. Is D.J. Really a runner? I think he's a talented. He only had zero rushing touchdown. Well, when you watch. I would say he has phenomenal. Well, I'm the threat of it, the threat of it. They're not going to go out there and run the triple option with DJ Lagway. I think DJ Lagway considers himself a pocket passer. But at the end of the day, the threat of it. The threat of it. They're not going to go out there and run the triple option with DJ Lagway.

I think DJ Lagway considers himself a pocket passer.

But at the end of the day, the threat of the quarterback being able to run, whether it's third and two, whether it's third and 12, whether it's fourth and inches, whether it's fourth and six. I've got to account for that, even if it's just a decoy. Well, how much is Billing them going to run him if he's already getting banged up?

That's exactly what I'm saying.

How much would that hinder the ability for them to be able to threaten the defense at every level all the time and change the way that things are called, whether that's adding a spy, whether that's slowing down the rush or things like that. That's my whole point of it's mental, too. Well, you got to know this about DJ Lagway already. He's every bit of 6-4-200. He's huge.

I mean, he's the physical aspect is there. And I know he's a true freshman walking in for a hurt quarterback last year in Graham. He didn't make some mistakes. I mean, 12 touchdowns, nine interceptions. That is way too many in the amount of games that he played. Obviously, you think that's going to improve with him gaining more experience. and you kind of go through the list of the talent that Florida has on both sides of the ball,

I think Florida is going to improve with him gaining more experience. And you kind of go through the list of the talent that Florida has on both sides of the ball. I think Florida is going to be a lot better this year, but I think their schedule is just daunting. It's a daunting schedule. And one thing that's a great little fun fact right now, if you are a Florida fan, you want to talk about halftime adjustments. I thought Billy Napier was one of the best in the country last year. Florida outscored their opponents in the fourth quarter, 127 to 64.
