Granted Western Kentucky is not LSU, but he threw for 10 of 12, 200 yards and 2 TDs, and ran for over 80 yards as the starting QB in that game. That shows promise.

how? first things first it was western carolina not western kentucky. i don't mean to be an ass about it, its just that you can not really say you are seeing anything "promising" by being the national DIA champions and beating on a DIAA team that is TERRIBLE. they only had 2 wins in DIAA and finished 2-9. it is not unfathomable to believe that given florida's talent any QB could of walked into that position and done the same thing against such an opponent.

He's going to be playing in the same system that turned Alex Smith into the #1 pick in the NFL draft, enough said. I wouldn't be surprised to see Tebow put up good numbers under Urban Meyer.

alex smith is a joke. i called him as a bust before he even graduated from utah. meyer may try to run that same system at florida but i don't see it working out for him in the next couple years. he better pray tebow is god if he does.

The media seems to think he's improved under Turner, but what do they know.

To respond to the thread's primary question, the answer is no.

I agree for now. "Great" isn't a word that I like to throw around to anyone willing to catch it. And I'm not going to throw it to a guy who only attempted ~20 passes last year, even if all of his passes were touchdown passes.

He very well could become great, however. I personally don't know enough about him to make that prediction.

Alex Smith improved quite a bit last season. I'd say two years is a little early to call someone a bust...well, unless the Browns drafted him.

College football notebook: Gators' Tebow needs cast for broken hand

Monday, November 26, 2007 3:02 AM



From wire reports

Florida quarterback Tim Tebow suffered a fractured bone in his non-throwing right hand Saturday during a 45-12 victory over Florida State.
Florida sports information director Steve McClain described the injury as a non-displaced fracture yesterday and said the injury will require a cast for at least two weeks, meaning Tebow could be accepting a Heisman Trophy with one hand. McClain said Tebow should be healthy by bowl season. The Gators (9-3) likely will play in either the Capital One Bowl in Orlando or the Outback Bowl in Tampa. Both bowls are on New Year's Day.
Tebow accounted for five touchdowns Saturday (three passing, two rushing).

I swear, the play he "broke" his hand looks like it was bogus. He came off the field looking fine, making a fist with his hand. It was a non-displaced fracture to his non-throwing hand. I don't know what that means, but it sounds like a big bruise to me. To be honest, I would not be surprised if this was some sort of way for Urban Whiner to create even more of a "Superman" appeal to Tebow to get him a better shot at the Heisman now that some of the media is drinking the McFadden kool-aid after his performance against LSU.

So who here saw Tebow wearing the cast on his hand and though... WTF?!?!... much like I did? Funny he wears it tonight, yet in the promo/clips they show if him away from the Heisman telecast he doesn't have it on?
