Godfrey was OFFERED by FSU, Miami, Michigan, Georgia, Tennessee and USF. If you can get a recruit that has serious interest from those types of programs you snatch him up!

He was recruited as a DB by all of these schools.  He's too short to play QB, he's like 5'10".  Also, there is rumors that he has serious "character" issues which is part of the reason he is being released.

Take him on a short leash as a DB or as a WR, otherwise, NO THANK YOU!

Your telling me you wouldn't take a QB who…

-Set the UCF single-season record for rushing yards by a quarterback, rushing touchdowns by a freshman quarterback and passing yards by a true freshman quarterback

-Led all true and redshirt freshmen in the FBS with a 66.8 completion percentage, placed second in efficiency, second in rushing touchdowns, third in rushing yards and fourth in total offense (2,725)

-Ranked fourth among true freshmen in passing yards and fifth in completions

-Joined Notre Dame's Tommy Rees and BYU's Jake Heaps as the only true freshman quarterbacks to lead his team to a bowl win

-Became the first true freshman quarterback in FBS history to guide his team to a victory in a conference championship game

-Was the Conference USA Freshman of the Year

Let me guess, you also think Tim Tebow can't make it as a QB in the NFL  :

Russell Wilson is 5'11". Andy Dalton is 5'10".

yes

Haha. I also would like to know your sources on him being recruited to play WR and DB for those other schools.

"Michigan is looking at me, FIU, Miami, Florida State, UCF, South Florida and Tennessee; everybody for quarterback," Godfrey told Rivals.com.

How about you answer this?  If he was being recruited by UM, FSU, USF & UT, why would he choose to go to UCF?  Think about that for a long, hard second or two.  It's called recruiting and the internet.  Most of what these kids say is not true nor are they actually being recruited by most schools they attach their names to.

Two Florida schools with a ton of titles between them, one SEC school and an up & comer in the Big East, but no, I'm going to play in C-USA.  That makes a ton of sense.

It's called immediate playing time vs. waiting on the bench behind 2-3 other qb's.

BC sometimes there are factors involved in recruiting other than just the name of the school. For example, he got a chance to play at UCF right away. It does happen you know (BCS recruits going to non BCS schools) - just not at FAU - yet.

Damn, is it the spring game yet?  All this nonsense about some UCF QB who has showed 0 interest in FAU, Arkansas State's new coach's salary, and the debate over when Pelini should hire his assistants is giving me a massive headache…..

OK Sig Ep 77 the last time you tried to out wit FAU Delt about coaches becoming coordinators he made you look dumb.
Also on the point why he choose UCF well sometimes the smaller program like UCF  is able to steal one from big boys UCF is a good school with great faculties and im sure their coaches worked extra hard on this kid and was able to steal one and he has made a huge difference in their program he beat a school he was being recruited by in a bowl games. Maybe we should try that sometime.

Made me look dumb by providing mid to low level coaches that moved on in less than a year?  Ok, I'm glad.  I'm also glad he is the internet commando and has nothing better to do with his time.  Sure, some schools, mostly mid level schools, recruited him as a QB, but the schools that FAUDELT listed his offers from wanted him as a DB or WR.  You want proof?  You got it?

Quote from Godfrey in 2009:
“The coaches from all of these schools have been saying the same things pretty much,” Godfrey said, “but the difference is that FSU and USF want me primarily as a quarterback. West Virginia and Michigan have mentioned quarterback but they list me as an athlete on their boards." Translation - NOT A QB

Quote from May 2009
“I’m pretty open right now” said Godfrey. “I want to go where I can compete for the starting job and be the man.”

The talented prospect is being recruited mainly as a QB, but some schools are recruiting him as a receiver, and others including Oregon State, Ohio state, and Florida are talking about switching him to defensive back.

"A few want me as a slot receiver or DB,” said Godfrey. “But I've played quarterback my whole life and that’s want I want to play in college."

"I’m only considering schools that want me at quarterback, said Godfrey. I look at depth charts because I want to play early and I don’t want to get stuck in the shot gun all day either. I want to come up under center, do play action, and things similar to what we run now.”

Maybe if you knew a thing about recruiting you would understand, but clearly you don't.  Feel good about "stealing one from the big boys", but I assure you, if he was that sought after as a QB he would have ended up at a BCS program.  Here's the proof or that statement: Denard Robinson.  Also, people so much thought he would be a DB at the next level, scout had him listed as a CB.  Here are his offers and what he decided.  All of the schools below wanted him as a DB and I bet USF & UCF would have taken him as a QB, however, he went on to play where an elite & storied program let him play QB.

School Interest Level Offer? Attended Camp? Visit Date Signed LOI?
Michigan Verbal Yes 01/09/2009
Florida No Interest Yes 12/12/2008
Georgia No Interest Yes 09/27/2008
Kansas State No Interest Yes 01/16/2009
South Florida No Interest Yes None
UCF No Interest Yes 01/23/2009
West Virginia No Interest Yes None


Denard was probably the BEST spread option QB the year he came out and had offers from MAJOR D1 programs, including the almighty Urban Meyer.  He chose Michigan, why because he was able to play QB, not DB.  He chose another MAJOR program, not some second rate, second tier school.  There's the logic, there's a school "stealing" a player.

Pretty sure I proved ya wrong here. I don't want to read into some quotes about what Godfrey's thoughts are.

Point is he WAS BEING RECRUITED to be a QB at all of those schools (YES Miami, FSU, etc.). He choose UCF because he wanted too. He is a good QB, better than any QB on this roster. IF you looked at it from a recruiting standpoint, he would be better than any QB we could bring in.

And to your snab at me about how I didn't prove you wrong about coaches? Um Al Groh went from head coach at Virginia to D-coordinator at Ga Tech. But your right I just threw a bunch of "low to mid level schools" out there.
