Jonathan Bullard: Mr Florida Honest
We’d like to give a lot of respect to Florida Gators senior Jonathan Bullard.
Firstly, the defensive end wasn’t particularly polite about this offense at SEC Media Days: “They are still striving to be good.”
He also said that he wanted to stay on at Florida because there was no real reason to go: “My family isn’t in a very bad situation where I had to go get money right away, so they were really just on my side and I feel what’s best for me is to come back here.”
….And get a better draft position: ” I hope I can show that and get drafted to where I want to be” (In other words stats said that he wouldn’t be more than a second/third round players)
And on losing, and how that created great fractions between the offensive and defensive sides of the ball: “I mean it’s tough, it’s always tough losing at anything. Us being football players, we’re naturally just so competitive at everything we do and when you lose, it ain’t easy. Sometimes when we lose, somebody will say something out of character, but you have to realize on the offensive side of the ball that they’re out there practicing just as hard as we are. So we just have to encourage them and let them get their confidence up also. ”
