#7 QB Danny Wuerffel - Florida Gators - [1993-96]

One of the the most decorated players in Florida's football history, Wuerffel won the 1996 Heisman Trophy while quarterbacking the Gators to the consensus national championship with help from teammates Fred Taylor at running back, Reidel Anthony, Ike Hilliard and Jacquez Green at receiver and Jeff Mitchell on the offensive line. He led the Florida Gators to four consecutive Southeastern Conference titles between 1993 and 1996, and the 1996 National Championship, won in decisive fashion (52-20) over archrival Florida State University at the 1997 Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, Louisiana. He is the only Heisman Trophy recipient to receive the Draddy, which is presented by the National Football Foundation and the College Football Hall of Fame to the nation’s top football scholar-athlete. Wuerffel was a First-team All-America selection in 1995 and 1996 and two-time recipient of the Davey O'Brien Award as the nation's top college quarterback both of those seasons. Also awarded the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award award as the nation's top senior quarterback. In 1995 he also was awarded the Sammy Baugh Trophy, emblematic of the nation's top collegiate passer. Also in 1996 he was named the NCAA QB of the Year but the Touchdown Club of Columbus. He was a member of the Florida Gator's 100th Anniversary Team, which was chosen in 2006. He finished his Gator career by completing 708 of 1,170 passes for 10,875 yards with 114 touchdown passes, the best in SEC history and second-most in major college history. His career pass efficiency rating of 163.56 was the best in major college history and his percentage of passes which went for a touchdown (9.74) ranked first in collegiate history. In 1995, his efficiency rating of 178.4 set a single-season collegiate record. During his Heisman-winning season of 1996, he completed 207 of 360 passes for 3,625 yards (an SEC record at the time) for 39 touchdowns (leading the nation) and his efficiency rating of 170.6 made him the first quarterback to ever post a rating of 170 or better in back-to-back years.

Honorable Mention:

#7 QB John Reaves - Florida Gators - (1969-71)

I give Reaves honorable mention because of the “comeback” from drugs and alcohol. At one time he was the NCAA's all-time leader in passing yards. Things had gotten so bad, separation from his wife Patti,

pictured here in the blue swimsuit…and no, I don‘t know who the “super hot-ness” in white is, and then later his driving 60 miles an hour thru downtown Tampa, eventually crashing his Mercedes and almost killing himself. When talk circulated of “committing” Reaves because people thought he was crazy, John fled to his brother’s house and went into hiding. There, he found something that turned his life around.

I’m sure a lot of you “older” Gator fans will remember his story, but in case you don’t remember, and you want to read his story, go here. Truly a story of “good-to-bad-to-good“… and his last $500.

On a lighter note, another Reaves story that many a Hurricane fan would rather forget, was the "Gator Flop" game in 1971. Seems Reaves only needed about 14 yards to surpass the all time passing record at Florida and NCAA at the time. Problem was, the Canes had the ball and the head coach, Fran Curci knew about the record and had his team running the ball and clock so the Gators couldn’t get the ball back. Gators coach Doug Dickey, recognizing this, had the Gators lay down on the field [all but one did] and let the Hurricanes score a meaningless touchdown so they could get the ball back.

"Freaking funny!"

The Gators got the ball back and Reaves completed a pass to Carlos Alverez (a.k.a. Cuban Comet) which gave him the record. The Gators won 45-16. Following the game, Curci would not shake hands with Dickey. Dickey was heartbroken..The Gators celebrated by jumping into a pool that housed "Flipper", the Miami Dolphin's mascot.

Besides bringing us some great but short moments on the field, he brought us something else, with some help, of course from Patti, their daughter, a Gator Alumni, who is currently residing among the enemy in the Tennessee hills,

Layla!
