I understand Demps having extra incentive against FSU since he wanted to go there and they wouldn't recruit him. That's natural. But why would this Reed guy have extra incentive against Florida who did want him? He just decided to choose the other school. It sounds like we're better off without him anyway, given his propensity for getting into trouble (and still only a freshman), but I still don't get the point of the story. Aren't there lots of players on both teams that were also recruited by the other? Perhaps he's just bitter because he chose a mediocre team when he could have been playing for an SEC, and possibly a mythical national, championship.

Reed orally committed to Florida during his senior year at Panama City Bay High, but backed out and signed with the Seminoles. ''It's a big game for me,'' Reed said. ``I want to make a play. I want to make some kind of difference in the game -- special teams or any way I can.'' Though he has missed three games because of team suspensions, Reed is Florida State's fourth-leading receiver with 16 receptions for 253 yards. He has three touchdown catches. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
