Spurrier, who won seven SEC titles and led Florida to its first national title, opined that Tebow's leadership abilities would be ideal for coaching. Tebow, a former Florida Heisman winner, currently works as a college football analyst for ESPN and the SEC Network, but has never expressed a desire to coach. Spurrier also praised fellow Florida Heisman winner Danny Wuerffel, noting that Tebow's advocacy for global issues like human trafficking exemplifies his strong character and warrior mentality.",
