Ahead of Florida’s game against Texas A&M on Saturday, former Florida Gators head coach — who won two national championships at the helm of the Gators and coached Heisman Trophy-winner Tim Tebow — took to the airways to sing songs of praise about Florida’s electric tight end, Kyle Pitts.
“Kyle Pitts to me is the most impressive player in 2020. I know they’re going to say Justin Fields, who hasn’t played yet, Trevor Lawrence hasn’t been challenged yet… I know there’s other players, he’s the most impressive player in 2020 so far.”
The three-time National Championship winning skipper described Pitts as a dual-threat in the same vein that Reggie Bush and Percy Harvin were for their respective position at halfback and gives a diagrammatic description of the mechanics of what a talented pass-catcher at the tight end position can do for one’s offense. Long story short, having Pitts coming off the edge of the offensive line gives quarterback Kyle Trask a lot more field to operate his offense in.
The entire clip can be watched below.
