On the Gator boards, there's been a frank discussion about why Florida hasn't mattered since Tebow left. Meyer is to blame, Foley is to blame, facilities were to blame, etc etc....and the QB position was to blame. So I thought I'd take a look back at QB recruits and see what's what, since Tebow left.
2010
3* Tyler Murphy
played a little, transferred to BC and started, UDFA
2011
5* Jeff Driskel
started about 20 games, got hurt, transferred to LA Tech, drafted in 6th round, NFL backup
4* Jacoby Brissett
played very little, transferred to NC State, started 2 successful years, drafted in 3rd round, NFL bakcup
2012
3* Skyler Mornhinweg
played a little, transferred to Columbia, stunk, no pro football
2013
3* Max Staver
never played, transferred to 3 places, ended up sucking at Maine, no pro football
2014
4* Will Grier
Started and played well for half a season, suspended for PEDs, transferred to WV, nearly a Heisman finalist
4* Treon Harris
Started off-and-on, scrambled around a lot, not much of a thrower...wound up transferring to Tenneseee State and moving to WR
2015
NO QB signed!
2016
4* Feleipe Franks
started the past 2 years, being a weakness last year and improved this year, under new coaching
3* Kyle Trask
didn't start for his HS team, hasn't been able to beat out Franks for playing time, got hurt this year

Honestly, you can throw out the ineffectiveness...I challenge you to find any situation at any school in any time frame in which EVERY QB recruit a school signed for a five-year period (including 7 players, total) ALL transferred from that school.
It sounds made up...impossible...doesn't it?
I think it's clear that with all the other things to warrant blame, this ludicrous fact that EVERY QB left Florida from 2010-2014 AND no QB was recruited in 2015. It defies rational thought.
