WATCH: Former South Carolina QB Stephen Garcia Throwing Passes at Florida's Pro Day

For some reason former South Carolina quarterback Stephen Garcia was at Florida's Pro Day Tuesday morning throwing passes for the Gators receivers and running backs. Why? Well--I suppose it was because they needed someone and they certainly can't trust Treon Harris to hit the most wide open of receivers. Someone asked Garcia on Twitter, but he just made a joke and didn't really answer the question.

Whatever the reason, he didn't look too bad.



South Carolina fans will likely remember him fondly since he did bring an end to the Gators losing streak at the Swamp his last time there back in 2010 with a 36-14 win. At the same time he may not be there favorite since he was dismissed from the team five games in to his senior year for violating team rules (supposedly alcohol related).




He ended up going undrafted in 2012, but was signed to a three-year deal with the Montreal Alouettes. He spent the 2012 season on the IR and ended up getting released in May 2013.



He made it on to an Arena Football roster in 2014, the Tampa Bay Storm, but it doesn;t sound like he has learned anything from his dismissal from South Carolina. After signing with the team in January of '14 he was suspended by them in May after having been reassigned by the team in late April. He was reassigned once again in July.

Here's the tweet he sent out explaining why he was throwing at Florida's Pro Day:
