When Emory Jones signed with the Gators in Dan Mullen’s inaugural 2018 class, he was seen as the starter in the wings with Feleipe Franks under center. Standing at 6-foot-2 with enticing passing abilities, Jones is a prototypical Dan Mullen quarterback.
Three years into the Mullen era, however, Jones still isn’t “the guy.” The Gators have instead turned Kyle Trask into a Heisman Trophy favorite.
For the last two years, Mullen has used Jones sparingly to spice up the offense and throw different looks at opposing defenses.
Jones had his moment on Saturday in the fourth quarter against Vanderbilt.
