People need to relax when it comes to Florida QB Graham Mertz.
The Wisconsin transfer was recently named the starting QB for the Gators by head coach Billy Napier going into week one August 31st against Utah.
Now, as I’ve said many times, I have nothing against Graham Mertz. As a Wisconsin man, I hope he does well in Gainesville. It didn’t work in Madison, his time with the Badgers was a complete disappointment and he moved on when Luke Fickell was hired.
That’s life, folks. Not everything goes according to plan.
