GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida quarterback Luke Del Rio has been exposed to a variety of leadership styles.Between his fathers NFL coaching career -- six stops in 20 years -- and his own collegiate path that includes three schools and four head coaches, Del Rio has seen a little bit of everything. Some good, some bad and enough to know what he wants, maybe even what he needs, to help him succeed.I dont want somebody to pat me on the back, said Del Rio, whose father, Jack, coaches the Oakland Raiders .Good thing, too, since hes playing for Florida coach Jim McElwain, who is often more critical than complimentary of his quarterbacks.He gets after me pretty good, Del Rio said. You can ask guys during practice; hell get after me. I expect it, though. I came here to play for him. I knew what kind of coach he was and is. I never really want to play for a coach thats like `Ah, its OK, get the next one, you know?You understand that as a player, but you want to be held to the standard the coaches set.The 23rd-ranked Gators (2-0, 1-0 Southeastern Conference), who host North Texas (1-1) on Saturday, fell well short of McElwains expectations last season. The offense ranked 112th in the country, and QB play was a big reason for the struggles.Will Grier and Treon Harris threw for nearly 2,900 yards, with 19 touchdowns and nine interceptions in 2015. Grier showed glimpses of talent, but once he was suspended for violating the NCAAs policy on performance-enhancing drugs and Harris took over down the stretch, Floridas offensive efficiency dipped dramatically.Even when Grier and Harris played well, McElwain sounded less than impressed.Hes taken the same approach with Del Rio, who has completed 63 percent of his passes for 576 yards, with six touchdowns and an interception.I try to coach them all hard because I want them to, you know, I want them to be successful, McElwain said. And especially at that position, but really all of them, you know. I dont think Ive done anything different from what Ive ever done.So maybe Del Rio ought to get used to it. After all, if hes going to be criticized after throwing for 320 yards and four touchdowns in the teams SEC opener against Kentucky, then its probably going to happen weekly.Del Rio finished with Floridas most passing yards in an SEC game since Chris Leak threw for 322 against Arkansas in 2004.But it was the throws Del Rio missed that stood out to McElwain. He pointed to two in particular: Del Rio overthrew Antonio Callaway on a skinny post in the second quarter during a drive that ended with a missed field goal; and Del Rio was well short and wide of Freddie Swain on a corner route late in the third quarter. Del Rio bounced back from the second one, tossing his final TD pass three plays later.Two days after the 45-7 victory against the Wildcats, McElwain was still bothered by the pass to Swain and said the one to Callaway was just ridiculous that he missed that throw.That bothers me, McElwain said. But hell see that and hopefully learn from it. ... He just did what he was supposed to do. He did his job. And yet, if he does his job better, which he can, hell hit those throws. And really, it irritates me.Del Rio welcomes the critiques, win or lose, big game or lackluster performance.Theyre going to tell you the way it is, Del Rio said. They expect you to make every play. Like I said, I expect to make play. I definitely left some plays out there. I agree with him. Mechanically, especially, I think I can be more sound. So I appreciate it.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org Superstar Outlet .C. at the helm of the top team in the Eastern Conference.

The 20-year-old Pelicans big man glanced up and smiled widely at the well-wishers -- a fitting end to a day he wont soon forget.

Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. HULL, England -- Substitute Marcus Rashford scored in the second minute of stoppage time to earn Manchester United a 1-0 win at Hull and a third straight victory to open the English Premier League on Saturday.Rashford capped an impressive cameo as a 71st-minute substitute by tapping in from close range after Wayne Rooney cut in from the left and sent across a low ball.After previous wins over Bournemouth and Southampton, United was on course to drop points for the first time this season in the face of an obdurate defensive performance by promoted Hull, which also won its first two games.Zlatan Ibrahimovics three-match scoring run came to end, but United was saved by a striker at the opposite end of his career. The 18-year-old Rashford burst onto the scene in the second half of last season, earning a place in Englands European Championship squad, but has been displaced by Ibrahimovic under new coach Jose Mourinho.United joined Chelsea on maximum points after three games.We deserved it and in a more comfortable way, Mourinho said. We had an amazing mentality. We tried and tried and got it.I tell the boys every day, we have to go into every match to win. We know we will draw or lose matches but the mentality has to be, `Go to win. Today they showed that.Hull hass been the surprise team in the first weeks, winning its first two games despite having no permanent manager, a slew of injuries, no signings since the end of last season, and with its owners looking to sell up.ddddddddddddThey fell agonizingly short of taking away a point from the KCOM Stadium, having spent almost the entire match on the back footIbrahimovic was looking to become only the second United player, after Jimmy Hanson in 1924-25, to score in his first four games for the club but the Swedish striker was shackled well by Hull center back Curtis Davies -- possibly the best player on the field. Uniteds other high-profile signing, Paul Pogba, also had a quiet game and was off target with two decent sightings of goal from the edge of the area.Rashford and fellow substitute Henrikh Mkhitaryan gave United something different when they come on as substitutes, offering pace and direct running. It was Rashfords first appearance of the season in the league, having been an unused sub in the first two games.Rashford had a low shot tipped around the post and Mkhitaryan had a goalbound shot blocked by Davies, but Hull finally caved in.
