ESPN’s Tom Luginbill is not of the belief that graduate transfer quarterback Malik Zaire will be Florida’s starting quarterback in 2017. In fact, he believes Zaire is a poor fit with the Gators.
Luginbill recently discussed Florida’s quarterback competition on the ‘JOX Roundtable’ on WJOX-FM in Birmingham.
“I don’t think Zaire has any chance of being the quarterback there,” Luginbill said. “I’m shocked by that move. I don’t understand it. There’s not a fit. It’s not an easy offense to learn in three weeks.”
Florida picked up Zaire as a transfer from Notre Dame after he decided to leave this off-season.
