The Dean/Wuerffel thing was both 93 and 94.
Dean was the backup to 2x SEC POY Shane Matthews and was the heir-apparent, but in the 2nd game of the year, threw 4 INTs in a win vs Kentucky. So Wuerffel comes in and starts some games until he stinks vs Georgia. Dean comes back to win the WLOCP and then they split time the next few games. Wuerffel tweaked his knee and Dean beats Bama in the SECCG and the blowout win vs previously undefeated WV.
Cool, right?
So 94 starts like 93, with Dean as the presumptive guy. He orchestrated a 31-0 win @ Tennessee, was a Heisman potential, etc. But he threw 4 INTs vs Auburn and was replaced by Wuerffel. Florida was going to win that game, except Wuerffel inexplicably throws a deep INT into triple coverage really late.
But Spurrier stuck with Wuerffel in the WLOCP the next week and on-in.
There were 3 things about Dean that were behind his downfall:
1 - his all-or-nothing play...he'd ad-lib and drive Spurrier crazy
2 - his reaction to Spurrier going crazy - he treated coming back to the sideline as a conversation when it was actually a "listening and learning opportunity" to put it politely.....Wuerffel was the exact opposite - he'd sieve through the ire and extract how to improve going forward
3 - he was probably more concerned with academics than football - getting his MBA and vying for a Rhodes scholly
