Steve Spurrier Says Tim Tebow Could Excel as a Florida Coach

At the Florida Legends Card Show in Gainesville, former Gators head coach Steve Spurrier highlighted Tim Tebow's natural leadership qualities, saying they would suit a coaching role at Florida. He mentioned that if the university hired Tebow, he would likely thrive on the sidelines. Tebow, who works as a college football analyst for one outlet and the SEC Network and leads the Tim Tebow Foundation, responded that he enjoys his current activities but would consider the offer after prayer.

Spurrier also praised current coach Jon Sumrall for similar traits. Former Heisman Trophy recipient Danny Wuerffel added that Tebow's advocacy for vulnerable children mirrors the warrior mentality he showed on the field. For now, Tebow remains focused on broadcasting and his foundation work.
