Gerald Christian, Jordan Reed impress TE coach Brian White

[O-town Gator]

"The Gators have only practiced twice since training camp began, but tight ends coach Brian White already saw something great from his young players.

“What’s evident in the first two days is Jordan Reed and Gerald Christian really improved themselves this summer,” White said after Friday’s practice. “They did a great job of becoming a better football player. All the work they did with (strength coach Mickey Marotti) and his staff has paid tremendous dividends. They’re very confident. They’re much improved.”

Reed (6-3, 240, red-shirt freshman) and Christian (6-3, 240, freshman) are part of a young group vying for playing time at the position."

Really excited to see these two do their thing. Meyer likes working with two tight ends on the field, and these two could be really do some great things. I remember being really excited about Hernandez and C.I. before the 2008 season. Unfortunately C.I. had a season ending injury. He was one of my favorite players over the past few years.
