Philly's all a'twitter about the signing of Tim Tebow

35. Damn but this gets tiring... "Tebow was great in college. He rarely threw the ball..."

In 2007 Tebow had these NCAA stats:

#1 in the NCAA in yards per attempt.

#11 in the NCAA in completion percentage (go do a search for the names of the ten who finished in front of him, and how many of THEM are in the NFL today?).

#23 in passing yards.

#8 (tie) in touchdowns.

Misleading stats I know because Florida plays such a cotton candy schedule, amiright? Oh yeah, let's not forget that he rarely threw the ball...

In what was Tebow's last college game, he completed 31-of-35 passes for 482 yards and three touchdowns and accounted for four total touchdowns and 533 yards of total offense, which set a record for a Bowl Championship Series game.

At the end of his college career, Tebow held 5 NCAA, 14 Southeastern Conference, and 28 University of Florida statistical records. He was the SEC's all-time leader in career passing efficiency (170.8), completion percentage (67.1%), passing touchdown to interception ratio (5.5 to 1), rushing yards by a quarterback (2947), rushing touchdowns (any position) (57), and total touchdowns responsible for (145).

Among many mentions in the NCAA Division-I record book, Tebow is ranked second in career passing efficiency, third in career yards per attempt (9.33), 8th in career rushing touchdowns, and also owns the record for most consecutive games in which he both threw at least one touchdown pass and scored at least one rushing touchdown (14).

Come on... face it. He's white, religious, and takes a knee after being involved in a scoring play. All three are fucked up things in the DU Rule Book.
