Yeah, that tat cracks me up. I guess he should have waited to see how it all
worked out, eh? Seriously, though, the kid should go to Louisville. If he
can't be the premiere back at BC, there's no way he'll break into the
rotation against our group. At Louisville, he'd be working with great
coaches in a program where everyone is being looked at with fresh eyes. The
competition in games is lighter, which would give him that much more chance
of success if he does become a starter. If he's looking for an NFL career,
that's his best shot.

Now here is another lesson in the dangers of tattoos. Perhaps some artist
can redesign that BC into Gator jaws.


Is a third Haden brother coming to Florida?

Josh Haden

Former Florida cornerback Joe Haden already has one brother taking his place
on the Gators' roster, as Jordan Haden, a safety, enrolled at UF this
semester and is practicing with the Gators this spring.

But another Haden brother could be coming to Gainesville soon. Josh Haden, a
running back and the second-oldest brother, left Boston College after a
disappointing sophomore season and, according to a source close to the
family, has narrowed his choices down to two schools - Florida and
Louisville.

While one media report
<http://miamiherald.typepad.com/gator_clause/2010/03/another-haden-likely-on
-the-way-to-florida-gators-via-boston-college.html>  says Josh Haden to
Florida is likely to happen - based on a quote from Joe Haden in this video
on NFL.com
<http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-draft/09000d5d817354b2/First-Draft-Joe-Haden>
, in which he says, "He's transferring now, probably to Florida" - the
source said a final decision has not yet been made.

Josh Haden was recruited by Florida in high school, but not as strongly as
older brother Joe and younger brother Jordan. He had a promising freshman
season at Boston College, rushing for 479 yards and a touchdown on 120
carries, but had a decreased role as a sophomore, carrying the ball just 58
times for 213 yards and a score.

Whichever school Josh Haden chooses, he will have to sit out the 2010
season. 

If he comes to Florida, he will likely have to battle with Jeff Demps, Chris
Rainey, Mike Gillislee and Mack Brown for carries in 2011, though it is
possible Demps and/or Rainey could leave for the NFL after 2010.

Florida could also extend a scholarship offer to Josh Haden to get a leg up
on the fourth Haden brother, Jonathan, a rising ninth grader who may be the
best athlete in the family
<http://voices.washingtonpost.com/recruitinginsider/2009/05/another_haden_re
ady_for_action.html> .

If Josh Haden chooses Louisville, the family will reunite with three of Joe
Haden's former coaches at Florida - Charlie Strong, now the head coach at
UL, Vance Bedford, now the defensive coordinator and Joe Haden's former
position coach, and running backs coach Kenny Carter.

The only other issue for Josh Haden - what to do with that "BC" tattoo on
his pectoral?
