So many guys come up to me and say, ‘What's it like to be at the University of Florida? What's it like to be a Gator?' The first thing I think of is, ‘Wouldn't you like to know,'" he said. ... "I had a teammate at Denver who played the same position as me and he went to the University of Notre Dame. He would brag about his university, how great it was. Most of us in the locker room were like, ‘C'mon, we all had opportunities. We chose not to go there.' ... But he talked so much about his university that it became easy. I'd say, ‘Your whole team had one guy who ran under a 5.0 40 [yard dash]. Our kicker ran under 5.0.'

Via) So that's clearly Tim Tebow talking about Brady Quinn from a story that
was here, and still shows up in search when you enter the terms into Gatorzone, but is no longer at that URL. (Bless you,
Google Cache.)
It's nice to know a few things. It's nice to know that Notre Dame people even in the NFL are Notre Dame people. It's nice to know that those people can't beat out a banana-armed water buffalo for a starting spot, and it's nice to know that if you say things that are even remotely interesting, the source page might just happen to disappear.
P.S. We have no idea if Florida's kickers ran under 5.0, but it's entirely possible. We also can't find the original article referenced, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's been deleted. (But it's probably been deleted.) .
P.P.S. We like to imagine Von Miller just staring at this conversation and wondering why in the hell anyone would care about anything outside the state of Texas.
