How serious are the Malik Zaire-Florida Gators rumors?

There's a lot of chatter regarding former Notre Dame quarterback Malik Zaire and the Florida Gators. Some of it is legitimate. Some of it borders on ludicrous. Let's break it down:

Who is Zaire? The Ohio native was a four-star dual-threat quarterback in the class of 2013. The 6-foot, 225-pound lefty redshirted that fall, then started in the 2014 Music City Bowl (and won MVP honors) in a win over LSU. He started the first two games in 2015 before breaking his ankle, and he backed up potential first-round pick DeShone Kizer last season.
