Robert Griffin III is not popular with fans watching the Florida-Florida State game.

The former Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback from Baylor is on the call for ESPN in Gainesville. The broadcast crew brought up Florida’s head coaching vacancy. Griffin maintained that Florida should hire Tim Tebow, an opinion he shared in a Friday appearance on “The Paul Finebaum Show.”

Griffin also brought up former Florida wide receiver Ike Hilliard and former Florida State cornerback Deion Sanders as possible Gators coaches.

Fans did not enjoy RG3’s takes. Here’s a sample of what was said on Twitter:
