USF’s steady dual-threat quarterback with big-game flashes
In the 2005 season, Pat Julmiste gave South Florida a workable mix of arm and legs, including 3,461 career passing yards and moments like a 222-yard, one-TD outing against Pittsburgh; his best value was as a tough, mobile QB who could extend plays and chip in on the ground[1][3][5][7]. He wasn’t a volume-stat monster, but he brought experience, composure, and enough playmaking to keep defenses honest, which makes him appealing for a team that wants a seasoned, competitive quarterback rather than a pure gunslinger[1][5][8].
