Florida football coach Jon Sumrall won't reveal starting QB for Oklahoma

Florida coach Jon Sumrall has a plan for his starting quarterback but is keeping the decision quiet for now.

Florida Gators football coach Jon Sumrall has a plan for the starting quarterback in their upcoming game against Oklahoma on November 7. However, he has chosen not to reveal that information at this time. Sumrall stated that he has a plan in motion but believes that revealing the starting quarterback name would not be beneficial. Both Aaron Phio and Tramell Jones Jr. are expected to be ready to play and contribute to the team's victory.

Sumrall acknowledged that the team needs improvement in the quarterback position, citing turnovers during the previous game against Georgia as a concern. He emphasized the importance of better performance around the quarterback, noting that turnovers have been a significant issue throughout the season. Sumrall also highlighted the need for better defensive play, particularly in picking up blitzes, which contributed to two of the four turnovers.

The coach stated that he does not seek input from players when making the quarterback decision, but he does observe body language and reactions during practice. He mentioned that both Phio and Jones Jr. have a competitive spirit, which is healthy for the team, as it indicates their desire to be the starting quarterback. However, Sumrall emphasized that this competition has not resulted in any division within the team.
