Still no clarity on Florida football QB competition following spring game

Florida football coach Jon Sumrall said throughout the spring that a starting quarterback job would not be decided following UF's Orange and Blue game. Nothing changed Sumrall's mind after how redshirt freshman Tramell Jones Jr. and Aaron Philo performed for the Florida Gators at The Swamp on Saturday, April 11.

"Both guys have done some good things," Sumrall said. "I think that room's done good things as a whole. I'll sit down with all those guys on Monday and have a really transparent conversation about, hey, after 15 practices, this is where we are.

I'll talk to them about, hey, if we had to play a game next week, this is probably what it would look like. "I won't make an announcement because we don't play here next week. But I wanted them to know kind of after we wrap up, I think our players, they deserve, they've earned honest conversations.

" Statistically, Jones outplayed Philo, throwing for more yards while making fewer mistakes. Jones completed 13 of 17 passes for 210 yards and 2 TDs, while Philo went 18 of 24 for 166 yards with 2 TDs and 2 interceptions. Jones got off to a slower start than Philo but flashed in the second quarter, firing a 38-yard TD pass to wide receiver Eric Sningleton Jr.
