Standing in Florida’s Indoor Practice Facility, Feleipe Franks a few feet to his left, Kyle Trask realized something.
“I’m always in a competition,” he said, laughing.
That was true even in high school. Trask — a 6-foot-4, 238-pound quarterback from Texas — served mostly as a backup at Manvel High.
When he enrolled at Florida before the start of last season, he was a backup again — this time to Luke Del Rio and former UF quarterback Austin Appleby.
But this year, he’s aiming for something different.
“I feel 100 percent more confident at the line of scrimmage,” Trask said on Wednesday.
