Gator freshman quarterbacks

Last week DJ Lagway became just the ~~fifth~~ seventh true freshman quarterback to start a game at Florida. Can anybody name the others?

Note 1: Five other Gator quarterbacks played (but did not start) as a true freshman , or started a game as a redshirt freshman, or played (but did not start) as a redshirt freshman.

Note 2: This is according to my research. Please correct me if I’m wrong. I only researched games starting in the 1972-73 season, when the NCAA allowed freshman to play on varsity squads. There were certain seasons before that where there was some freshman eligibility. I also didn’t count freshman only teams or junior varsity teams.
