The Florida Gators wrapped up SEC Media days yesterday. The teams usually fly in right before their press conferences and then fly right back home when they’re one. Gator Country has the entire script of the Florida press conference, so feel free to check it out. For those of you looking for only what Tim Tebow had to say, then look no further.
Tim started with his opening statement: “Well, I’m looking forward to it. You know, this off season has been great. Had a lot of fun. But I can’t wait for the season to get here. We’re very excited about it. We like our chances. We think we’ve got a lot of talent. We’re very excited and we hope that everything will turn out the way we’ve anticipated it. But you never know. It starts in a few weeks with two a days. We’re looking to get that team chemistry right, our work ethic up there. Who knows what’s going to happen, but we’re excited about this season and looking forward to all the games that are gonna come our way.”
There were also a couple of funny questions the press asked, such as “You have so many obligations. Are there days you just wish you could clone yourself?” Tebow responded, “You know, to be a hundred percent honest, some days, yes, sir. Some days you don’t feel like doing everything. Those are just the pros and cons that come with what you do and how you do it.”
More questions by media include:
Q. Do you bring the Heisman Trophy with you wherever you go?
Q. What do you think you need to do this year to get better?
Q. When you go abroad, are you always recognized?
Q. Your roommate is gone this year. Who are you rooming with this year?
If you want to find all of Tebow’s answers to these questions, you gotta check out the script. I don’t have enough room here to post them all.
