Not a jab at David Jones at all here. I just felt compelled to share some of the quotes he got for his The USA Today piece that are...... well......
When it came time for Urban Meyer, head coach of the defending national champion Florida Gators, to offer some advice to his new quarterbacks coach on how to handle Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Tim Tebow, the message was pretty simple. "Coach Meyer said just don't screw him up," Scot Loeffler said.
[That would imply that Tebow has flaws or even human mortality, which is a ridiculous implication because everyone knows that he does not.]
Loeffler calls it "an honor" to be apart of the UF staff and work with Tebow.
[Hmmm, that's an OK start. But I still think that your adulation for Tebow can be a *lot* more over-the-top, to the point where it borders on creepy.]
"From day one, meeting the kid, he's had 'it.' And he'll always have 'it.' There's not one thing that surprises me about him except how he handles the off-the-field issues. He has a miraculous way of dealing with the public. He's awesome in every sense of the word."
[Boom.]

The feeling is mutual. Tebow confesses that the hiring of Loeffler was a factor in his returning for his senior season instead of going to the NFL.
"It definitely was," Tebow said. "I was involved in recruiting the new coach and talking to him. Coach Meyer really trusted me a lot with being in on that. Coach Loeffler is the best in the country."
At the risk of being said to be playing the "race card", wouldn't this type of behavior from a black athlete have him labeled a prima donna and arrogant? I guess if black athletes talked about God more often, then that wouldn't happen. Wait, they get criticized for that, too? Damn.
