One of the strongest lines of South Carolina offensive coordinator Kurt Roper's resume was his time working with eventual No. 1 overall pick and Super Bowl winner Eli Manning.
It turns out, Manning is part of the reason Roper is with Muschamp in the first place.
"Eli was one of the recommendations that I talked to as far as when I hired Kurt to the University of Florida," Muschamp said. "He came into a very difficult situation that last year at Florida, at the quarterback position, at multiple positions."
That Gators offense struggled to 5.2 yards per play and 72nd in scoring nationally with one quarterback damaged by three difficult seasons and another thrown into the fire too early.
