GAINESVILLE - "Florida coach Urban Meyer gave Scot Loeffler one directive after hiring him in January: Don't try and build Tim Tebow into a prototypical NFL quarterback.
Just polish the former Heisman Trophy winner a bit.
That's all Loeffler has done with Tebow during spring practice, especially regarding footwork and lower-body mechanics.
"Throwing a football is exactly like hitting a golf ball," Loeffler said after a recent practice. "It's all body, and what we're trying to do is we're trying to incorporate the lower half into the throwing mechanics. That's what we're working on right now."
