Former Florida starting quarterback Treon Harris has indeed made the move to wide receiver.
Gators coach Jim McElwain confirmed the position change on Ivan Maisel’s ESPN podcast.
“You’ve got to look at the fit,” McElwain said. “Nothing he did. Guys around him didn’t play great either. So I’ll never put that on a player.”
Florida jumped out to a 6-0 start in 2015, but finished the season 4-4 with Treon Harris under center following the suspension of starter Will Grier. Grier transferred to West Virginia after the season.
It was reported in February that Harris would move to wide receiver this year after struggling in McElwain’s offense.
