- Chris Leak was born on May 3, 1985 in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA.
- Meets with the coaching staff on Thursdays to script the first 12 plays of an upcoming game. Leak first meets with his teammates to get their thoughts on what the 12 plays should be prior to meeting with the coaches.
- His favorite college class at UF has been interpersonal communication.
- During the summer of 2006, Leak visited the Manning family's passing academy.
- According to former UF Offensive Coordinator Larry Fedora, Leak was the one who went over and got the water bottles filled and brought them to practice for the receivers, running backs and quarterbacks during voluntary conditioning in the summer of 2004.
- As a freshman, roomed with Skyler Thornton and Andre Caldwell and the three would practice plays in their apartment lining up different plays in their living room.
- I feel a lot more comfortable in the offense now. Coach comes to me all the time and asks me all the time what I like to run, what plays am I comfortable with. I always give him the top plays I'm real comfortable with and I think the guys around me are very comfortable.
- All these guys want a title. We want a ring on our finger right now. That's why - especially for our seniors - we're very hungry this year. In order for us to be successful with the schedule that we're having, everyone has to have their best year and play well.
- It goes by fast. I have enjoyed every year at Florida. I can remember every snap I've taken as a Gator. I have every snap on film. I'm expecting this to be my best year.
- My expectations every year are to compete for a national title. Being a veteran quarterback and having veteran guys around me, I'm really excited.
- This is how I felt last year. That was huge for us then and it is now, too. Not many players get to experience this and playing a great team like Florida State. It's something you can't explain. When you go undefeated in The Swamp, you know you've taken it back. The fans came out and supported us and we stuck together to get it done in the end.
