(AP Photo/Butch Dill) From SEC.com BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Florida coach Mike White has an interesting challenge this season. For the first time in his coaching career, he gets to coach a five-star prospect in point guard Andrew Nembhard. “It’s foreign to me and my staff,” White said. “It’s not foreign to the University of Florida.” Nembhard has the challenge of following the veteran Chris Chiozza, who was a security blanket for the Gators, leading them to the 2017 Elite Eight and finishing last season as the program’s career leader in assists. Chiozza, senior guard Jalen Hudson said, “was so experienced. His IQ was so high. I felt he was so far above the other point guards in the league.” But Hudson, White and senior center Kevarrius Hayes all expressed confidence in the 6-foot-4 freshman Nembhard, part of Florida’s highly rated class. “Cheese was a great player,” Hudson said. “Andrew is a great player as well.” “For a freshman, he has a lot of poise,” Hayes said. “He’s a really great passer.” White called Nembhard “an elite passer” and more. “Regardless of where he was ranked, he’s a high-character guy, a high-IQ guy.” Sent From Shane's iPhone Go Gators! & Skål Vikes! -- -- 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 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GatorNews" group.

I can do that now and avoid the 5" of rain that will begin to fall at the beginning of practice when the east coast sea breezes collide with the west coast sea breezes over the practice field. They will be impressively tall. They will appear to be underweight and clumsy in their loose jerseys. They will not be able to differentiate between a distant coach's whistle and a nearby cricket.

Skill position players can make impacts right away (Harvin, Julio Jones, Demps, etc.), but it's harder for the bigger guys. But, there is a reason most college players, specifically lineman and linebackers, really blossom when they become upperclassman, and it's not just 'learning the system'. It's because they are physically maturing into men, and they're not 17-18 year old kids anymore. Regardless, I hope all this ending HS early to get to college sooner thing ends soon.

Coach Houston Nutt said in a news release the player has been released from his national letter of intent. Hornsby, who was already on probation in Florida for a credit card fraud conviction, pleaded not guilty in Oktibbeha County, Miss., Circuit Court and had a trial date set for Nov. 2. "I am releasing Jamar Hornsby and he will not be a member of our football team," Nutt said in the release. "We wish him nothing but the best in the future." Neither Nutt nor Hornsby's attorney, Steve Farese Sr., returned messages left by The Associated Press on Friday. The 22-year-old safety from Jacksonville, Fla., faces up to 20 years in prison. He also could be forced to serve four years in Florida for violating his probation. Bill Cervone, the state attorney for the area around Gainesville, where Hornsby previously played for the Gators, told The Associated Press he will now alert a judge of the indictment. "He doesn't have to be convicted (for a revocation to happen), but he's not going to get revoked just because he's been charged," Cervone said. "The commission of an offense that violates his probation has to be proven." This is the second time Hornsby's been denied a chance to play in the Southeastern Conference. Urban Meyer kicked him off the Florida team following his conviction for using a dead friend's credit card to run up thousands of dollars in charges. He played in eight games and had five tackles in 2007, but was suspended for five games for selling his complimentary tickets, a violation of NCAA rules. Hornsby appeared to get his life and career back on track after playing at East Mississippi Community College last year. He had 111 tackles and two interceptions last season and was named the MVP of the Mississippi junior college northern region. He signed a national letter of intent to play for the Rebels in February, but on March 1 he was arrested following a late-night fender bender in a McDonald's drive-through in Starkville. Police said he attacked the man who bumped into his rear bumper while waiting in line. He was originally accused of using brass knuckles and taking a small amount of money from the man, but the indictment did not mention the weapon or the theft. In an interview earlier this week, Farese said he hopes if the case gets to trial a jury would be allowed to consider the lesser offense of simple assault because no weapon was used. Hornsby also could accept a plea deal if one is offered. That may not make a difference when it comes to the judge's decision in Florida, though. Cervone said a judge would likely take a "dim" view of any violation. "The point is you're on probation," he said. "Keep your nose clean. And if he's convicted of anything he by definition did not keep his nose clean, and we're only talking in degrees about how dirty did he get." <>

How wonderful it is to be anywhere in the world and get all this Gator information. Anyway, I live in Daytona Beach but have a cabin about 4 miles south of Melrose and 6 miles northeast of Hawthorne, which is 20 miles east of Mecca. Funny thing, when the 2000 census person was asking me what my address was at the cabin, it quickly went through my mind that the mapmakers (cartographers) have to get their information from somewhere; so I told her that I lived on Lasseter Lane in Hawthorne, Fl. Sure enough, if you "Google" or "Yahoo" and search "Lasseter Lane, Hawthorne, Fl", it labels the road "Lasseter Ln", which is not a public road. Now, the last laugh might be on me someday when the County decides that it is a public road, since it is clearly on all maps, even the hardcopy ones.

"Right now, we all like each other," Spurrier said Thursday. "That's what you got to have, everybody's got to be on the same team." Spurrier acknowledged it wasn't always that way his first four seasons with the Gamecocks. Things started fast in 2005 with a record-setting five-consecutive Southeastern Conference wins, including landmark victories over Tennessee and Spurrier's former school Florida.South Carolina, though, has struggled to finish off promising starts, particularly the last two seasons. In 2007 and 2008, the Gamecocks were 11-6 in August, September and October, but 2-6 once November arrived. Spurrier finally realized a season ago after South Carolina clunked to the end with three straight defeats that things had to change. There are five new assistants, including offensive line coach Eric Wolford who came from Illinois to replace John Hunt, long a Spurrier favorite who been with him at Florida, the Washington Redskins and the Gamecocks. Spurrier also changed his strength and condition program, bringing in Craig Fitzgerald when Mark Smith left for a short stay at Tennessee with coach Lane Kiffin. "As a group, we've just not got it done," Spurrier said. "Since I'm responsible for the group, we're trying a new direction." There's no doubt in Spurrier's mind the new assistants have sparked a freshened attitude among the players, who he says have shown the best offseason commitment since he took over. That's also led to a significant drop in off-the-field issues for the Gamecocks this summer, Spurrier said. "Well, when players do what they're expected to do, you don't have many off the field situations," the coach said. One area where Spurrier expects that to show the strongest is with starting quarterback Stephen Garcia. The sophomore was considered one of Spurrier's best-ever QB prospects when he arrived on campus in January 2007. However, two arrests led to a suspension before Garcia's first spring practice and he spent a fairly unproductive season as a scout-team redshirt. Garcia figured to have a shot at the starting job last spring. Again, though, a run in with campus authorities cost him practice time and got him suspended through most of the summer. Garcia was way behind when fall drills began and never found any consistency over eight games. He was the SEC's freshman of the week when he came off the bench to lead South Carolina to a 24-17 victory at Kentucky. However,

Tennessee's Lane Kiffin will take his recruiting message to South Florida with an I-95 billboard <http://www.palmbeachpost.com/sports/content/sports/epaper/2009/07/30/0730te nnessee_football.html/> Coming soon to a highway near you: Lane Kiffin. Tennessee has purchased billboard space in South Florida and will put up an ad next week. By <mailto:ben_vo...@pbpost.com> BEN VOLIN Palm Beach Post Staff Writer GAINESVILLE - Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin has a message that you'll see when you drive down Interstate-95 to Fort Lauderdale: It's Time. Those two words are not just the catchphrase of John Ward, the former longtime Tennessee broadcaster. "It's Time" is the new marketing slogan for Tennessee football as the Volunteers transition from former coach Phil Fulmer to Kiffin. And even though Knoxville is more than 800 miles away, Tennessee has bought space at I-95 and Oakland Park Boulevard for a billboard that will go up early next week and remain through Labor Day weekend. "We wanted to make an effort to extend our brand beyond the Tennessee geography," said Chris Fuller, associate athletic director for sales and marketing. "We obviously recognize the value of Florida as it relates to growing and building our program. We just wanted to let people know we're here." One of the goals of the 14- by 48-foot billboard - which includes photos of Kiffin and defensive back Eric Berry - will be to aid UT recruiting. Kiffin has made recruiting South Florida a priority since taking over the program in December, and was able to steal Pahokee's Nu'Keese Richardson away from the Florida Gators on national signing day. "In Tennessee, as much as we love our state, we do not have a lot of great high school players there. Those are the facts," Kiffin said. "We have to create national attention immediately." With that in mind, Tennessee is undergoing an aggressive marketing campaign to help reverse the team's image after last year's 5-7 record, though the marketing budget has remained constant at about $1 million, Fuller said. In addition to the billboards, the Vols are producing their own videos for a soon-to-be-released Tennessee football page on YouTube. "It's really exciting. It gives us a chance to market Tennessee in a different way," spokeswoman Tiffany Carpenter said. "We have gotten a lot of support from coach Kiffin to ramp it up even more than what we had planned on." That means expanding the marketing base outside of the traditional markets such as Nashville and Chattanooga. The Vols also have bought "It's Time" billboards in Atlanta and Memphis. Rutgers coach Greg Schiano, who has Miami roots, also has recognized the importance of recruiting in South Florida and bought billboard space on area highways a few years ago. The Volunteers spent $25,000 on their billboard campaign, which also includes billboards in Tennessee promoting Berry for the Heisman Trophy. Fuller said the Florida board cost approximately one third of the total bill. The Vols have 246 season-ticket holders from Florida and a healthy alumni base in South Florida, mostly retirees. "I know that coach Kiffin isn't going to win any popularity contests in Florida," Fuller said. "But we've got a good presence of people coming up from Florida seven or eight times a year for games." Of course, there's a good chance that a Kiffin billboard will invite graffiti-tagging from Florida and Miami fans. "That would not surprise me in the least," Fuller said with a laugh. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions

"Right now, we all like each other," Spurrier said Thursday. "That's what you got to have, everybody's got to be on the same team." Spurrier acknowledged it wasn't always that way his first four seasons with the Gamecocks. Things started fast in 2005 with a record-setting five-consecutive Southeastern Conference wins, including landmark victories over Tennessee and Spurrier's former school Florida. South Carolina, though, has struggled to finish off promising starts, particularly the last two seasons. In 2007 and 2008, the Gamecocks were 11-6 in August, September and October, but 2-6 once November arrived. Spurrier finally realized a season ago after South Carolina clunked to the end with three straight defeats that things had to change. There are five new assistants, including offensive line coach Eric Wolford who came from Illinois to replace John Hunt, long a Spurrier favorite who been with him at Florida, the Washington Redskins and the Gamecocks. Spurrier also changed his strength and condition program, bringing in Craig Fitzgerald when Mark Smith left for a short stay at Tennessee with coach Lane Kiffin. "As a group, we've just not got it done," Spurrier said. "Since I'm responsible for the group, we're trying a new direction." There's no doubt in Spurrier's mind the new assistants have sparked a freshened attitude among the players, who he says have shown the best offseason commitment since he took over. That's also led to a significant drop in off-the-field issues for the Gamecocks this summer, Spurrier said. "Well, when players do what they're expected to do, you don't have many off the field situations," the coach said. One area where Spurrier expects that to show the strongest is with starting quarterback Stephen Garcia. The sophomore was considered one of Spurrier's best-ever QB prospects when he arrived on campus in January 2007. However, two arrests led to a suspension before Garcia's first spring practice and he spent a fairly unproductive season as a scout-team redshirt. Garcia figured to have a shot at the starting job last spring. Again, though, a run in with campus authorities cost him practice time and got him suspended through most of the summer. Garcia was way behind when fall drills began and never found any consistency over eight games. He was the SEC's freshman of the week when he came off the bench to lead South Carolina to a 24-17 victory at Kentucky. However, given the start in the Outback Bowl against Iowa, Garcia threw three interceptions and looked awful in a 31-10 battering. So Spurrier brought in former Florida passer G.A. Mangus as quarterback coach, as much to mentor Garcia as to teach him the ball coach's complex offense. So far, it's working. Mangus says Garcia has been a willing sponge, readily soaking up as much information as possible to bring to the field this fall. The two talk each day, Mangus said, and Garcia understands the work he'd have to put in "if he wants to be great." Spurrier hasn't let his starting quarterback talk to reporters yet, but on Garcia's Twitter page earlier this month, he said, "Offense is going to surprise." Spurrier, 64, says the attitude around Gamecock football has him juiced about South Carolina finally breaking through to the SEC success they've seldom experienced before. "We're looking forward to a new era of Carolina football," he said. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO V

By Robbie Andreu Gainesville SUN Staff writer Published: Wednesday, July 29, 2009 at 6:28 p.m. Last Modified: Wednesday, July 29, 2009 at 6:28 p.m. New Tennessee football coach Lane Kiffin invaded Florida last February and stole a high-profile recruit from the Gators when he talked Pahokee wide receiver Nu'Keese Richardson out of his UF commitment to sign with the Vols. That success has compelled Kiffin to try and establish more of a Tennessee presence in the talent-rich state of Florida. At last week's SEC Media Days in Hoover, Ala., Kiffin said a Tennessee billboard will be going up in south Florida in the next few weeks. "There will be a billboard going up there in the next month that I think you'll be excited to see, that will give you something to write about that will help us, too," Kiffin said. Kiffin's comment has spawned a great deal of speculation as to what the billboard will say. Will it be promoting UT football? Or will it possibly be taking shots at Urban Meyer and Florida? Kiffin is being secretive about it. "I'm not going to give you any more than that," he said last week. "Got to give you something to look forward to." Tennessee isn't the only SEC football program putting up billboards. Auburn is doing the same in Alabama to promote a new era under new coach Gene Chizik. As for Florida, there are no plans to put up any billboards. Winning two national championships in the past three years has given the Gators plenty of exposure. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~--~~~~--~~--~--~--- <>

RE: FW: [gatortalk] Re: Des Moines
Yes, Oliver, you are right. Contact the UF Alumni Association and they will help you set up a Start Up meeting. All she has to do is agree to host the meeting, find a place that will host the Peoria club where they can watch games, and the UF Alum Asso will send out invites to Gator grads in the area and BEHOLD: a new gator club will emerge. Same for everyone else who reads this. BTW, the official sites for Gator Club meetings receive the codes for viewing the UF feeds of athletic events by satellite. A.

Okay... So I am feeling a bit curious about where everyones feelings about the upcoming season which is only just over a month away. What are your expectations for the 2009 Gators? Would anything less than another appearance for a National Championship mean the season was a dissappointment? Or would they have to win it all? Or would they have to go undefeated (like we KNOW Tebow and Co. really really wants). Consider this... Pros - the majority of the Defense returns for another season. So far no serious injuries keeping anyone from playing (that I have seen). - Charlie Strong is still a Gator (till O'leary is fired at UCF) - Tebow, a crucial piece (experience, leadership, etc etc), is back and so far as we know.. healthy - Spikes is back, most experienced player and crucial leader on the D... He'll be important to identify and build others up to fill that role in the coming years. - (Fill in the blank) - (Fill in the blank) Cons - Mullen is gone... and we have a New offensive coordinator.. however, he has been in the program as our O-line coach. Yes... I know they all game plan... but can he make the necessary snap adjustments when/if the situation were to call for it? I guess time will tell... Meyer trusts him or else I dont think he would have put him in that position. - We have a new QB coach ... who is working on Tebow and his throwing motion. We will see if this is a help. or a hindrance. I know its to (partially) help Tebow prepare for the NFL (and to really develop Brantley) Im just worried about not letting Tebow... be Tebow. Im just concerned about how Tebow is adjusting to the changes. - Percy is gone... who's gonna be the leading rusher/receiver? I dont think we can risk an injury to Tebow should he get injured. We need him near or at 100% the entire season. I think Meyer and Co learned a valuable lesson about that in 2007. Demps, Rainey, James, Hernandez and Co all seem ready to step up and be Tebows back up. We will see. - Lots of good talk about Brantley... but a) Is he really gonna be healthy enough... and b) if he is and something happens to Tebow... is he ready to take over the reigns. Only more playing time will show us that. - (Fill in the blank) - (Fill in the blank) Since Im used to it...

Why do I always start looking for my tournament darts when I first see this every summer? Does anyone else think it would make a great dart game? Sorry I disappeared from posting without a word for about 3 weeks, but Paula and I were up in the NC/Tennessee mountains with the Gator motorhome.saw a lot of bears and Vols. Only the bears were scary, though. The Vols all bowed and scrapped appropriately. Randy missed my posting so much he thought I had tried to die again and gave a call yesterday, which was VERY thoughtful of him. Naturally, I said, "Not yet, Randy!" He and I are both the sensitive types. Any guy with a photo of Dr. Phil on his Facebook page HAS to be sensitive, you know. Anyway, Paula and I had a great time and I'm much stronger as a result of all the up and down hiking. This will interest Oliver: we hiked over 24 miles of mountain trails while we were up there. The last one, last Thursday, was an 8-miler with an altitude gain of over 2,000 feet to watch water pour over Ramsey Cascades in the Greenbrier section of the Smokys. AWESOME, baby! Anyway, we camped at Julian Price Memorial Park on the Blue Ridge Parkway at 3,400 feet near Blowing Rock, NC the first week; then, Elkmont at about 2,000 feet in the Smokys near Gatlinburg. We ran into a lot of Gators in both places. Of course, Elkmont was overflowing with adoring Vols. I, of course, had out all my Gator flags, windsocks, lawn ornaments, chairs, hats, shirts and my Gator cell phone ring tone. One Vol even said, "That was a neat ring tone. It sounds familiar; what is it?" I was happy to tell him that it was the UF Alma Mater and asked if he would like to hear it again. It was Paula and my 25th anniversary trip. It was a memorable one. On our anniversary we hiked to Abrahms Falls in Cades Cove. About a mile into the trail we encountered a large male bear who entered the trail and began to walk toward us about 40 yards ahead. I blew my whistle and he headed down into Abrahms Creek and disappeared like a good bear into the woods. How did that song go? 'Don't go into the woods today, you'd be in for a big surprise.' Just before reaching the falls I fell off the trail and held onto a small rhododendron bush until Paula could pull me up and save my life. This has become one of her new roles, lately. Anyway, we had lunch at the falls and then drove into Gatlinburg for a dinner of steak and mountain trout at the Black Bear Grill overlooking a stream. We both signed up for 25 more. It's good to be back. If I didn't have about 200 emails to go through I hunt the darts. A.

[gatortalk] Re: 2009 Helmet Schedule
Thanks, Randoo! Why do I always start looking for my tournament darts when I first see this every summer? Does anyone else think it would make a great dart game? Sorry I disappeared from posting without a word for about 3 weeks, but Paula and I were up in the NC/Tennessee mountains with the Gator motorhome.saw a lot of bears and Vols. Only the bears were scary, though. The Vols all bowed and scrapped appropriately. Randy missed my posting so much he thought I had tried to die again and gave a call yesterday, which was VERY thoughtful of him. Naturally, I said, "Not yet, Randy!" He and I are both the sensitive types. Any guy with a photo of Dr. Phil on his Facebook page HAS to be sensitive, you know. Anyway, Paula and I had a great time and I'm much stronger as a result of all the up and down hiking. This will interest Oliver: we hiked over 24 miles of mountain trails while we were up there. The last one, last Thursday, was an 8-miler with an altitude gain of over 2,000 feet to watch water pour over Ramsey Cascades in the Greenbrier section of the Smokys. AWESOME, baby! Anyway, we camped at Julian Price Memorial Park on the Blue Ridge Parkway at 3,400 feet near Blowing Rock, NC the first week; then, Elkmont at about 2,000 feet in the Smokys near Gatlinburg. We ran into a lot of Gators in both places. Of course, Elkmont was overflowing with adoring Vols. I, of course, had out all my Gator flags, windsocks, lawn ornaments, chairs, hats, shirts and my Gator cell phone ring tone. One Vol even said, "That was a neat ring tone. It sounds familiar; what is it?" I was happy to tell him that it was the UF Alma Mater and asked if he would like to hear it again. It was Paula and my 25th anniversary trip. It was a memorable one. On our anniversary we hiked to Abrahms Falls in Cades Cove. About a mile into the trail we encountered a large male bear who entered the trail and began to walk toward us about 40 yards ahead.

The stars: The Oh-Fours came back for another try at a national title and they delivered; Al Horford was a beast underneath; Corey Brewer refined his 3-point shot to become a weapon; Taurean Green managed almost every game he played in that year; Lee Humphrey set the NCAA Tournament record for 3s made. What they did: With all of the pressure on them to repeat, the Gators did just that. In the process, they won the SEC title and celebrated by cutting down the nets. The reason this team is No. 1 is because they had to deal with so much whether it was pushy agents, media spotlight or teams gunning for them. And, of course, there was that special night when the football team was honored on the court and passed the torch of burden on to the basketball team. This team was so good it never trailed in three blowout wins at the SEC Tournament, then knocked off UCLA and Ohio State in the Final Four. Big moment: The toughest game for Florida in the 2007 NCAA Tournament came against Purdue in the second round in New Orleans. The Gators trailed at the half and were in a tight game late thanks to the Boilermakers' Carl Landry. But Horford came up big down the stretch making three baskets inside and flexed his muscles for the cameras during the Gators' 74-67 win. This was the moment when you could see the tournament experience from the year before paying off. Fun fact: No wonder the Atlanta Hawks jumped all over Horford in the NBA Draft that year. In six games in the tournament, the Gator center collected 68 rebounds setting a UF record for rebounds in the Big Dance in one season. Quote: "You think about Taurean Green and Lee Humphrey your starting backcourt and they both were terrific. I think everybody looks at the frontline but you know here are two really good solid players who played a lot better than people really expected or imagined or thought they could." - Billy Donovan --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~--~~~~--~~--~--~--- <>

By Robbie Andreu Gainesville SUN Staff writer Published: Monday, June 22, 2009 at 6:01 a.m. Last Modified: Thursday, June 4, 2009 at 3:29 a.m. Record: 13-1. The stars: Quarterback Tim Tebow seems to have the ability to will his team to victories. But he had plenty of help from wide receivers Percy Harvin and Louis Murphy and the emergence of small and speedy tailback Jeff Demps and Chris Rainey. This is a team that could also win with defense, which it showed in the national title game. The defense was led by junior middle linebacker Brandon Spikes and a young secondary (Joe Haden, Janoris Jenkins, Ahmad Black and Major Wright) that made a quantum leap from the year before. What they did: The Gators, including Tebow, looked a bit out of sorts offensively through the first few games of the season. An upset loss at home seemed to wake a sleeping giant. From that point on, Florida went 9-0 and outscored the opposition by an average score of 49.3-13.0 to earn a spot in the BCS Championship Game against Oklahoma. In the title game, the UF defense diffused what some considered the be the greatest offense in the history of college football in a 24-14 victory. It was UF's second national title in three years and the third in school history. Big moment: It came about 40 minutes after the only loss of the season to Ole Miss, when a tearful Tebow stood in front of the media in the postgame press conference and delivered his emotional promise that no one would play harder than he and his teammates would for the rest of the season. From that point on, the Gators were unbeatable. Fun fact: Tebow's now-famous promise has been immortalized at UF, where it is now on a plaque hanging on a wall at the entrance to the new football complex in the south end zone of The Swamp. Quote: "The professionalism. I just keep going back to that, the way they handled themselves off the field and on the field, and practices were all about teaching and getting guys to go hard. That's a sign of a mature team. That's kind of a model. I'm not sure I've been around one like that." - Urban Meyer --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~--~~~~--~~--~--~--- <>

How so? Let's count the ways: 1. Phil's BCS champion: Florida (for the second year in a row) 2. "They are the most experienced defending National Champ in a long time and not only are they the only team in the country that ranks in all 8 of my individual units but they are in the top 10 in all 8 and in the top 2 in SIX of the eight! For the 2nd straight year I will pick Florida but this time they figure to be the preseason #1 team by almost everyone (unlike '08)." 3. BCS championship matchup, January 7, Pasadena, Calif.: Florida vs. Texas (for the record, I agree on both teams) 4. Phil's preseason First Team All-Americans: Tim Tebow, Carlos Dunlap, Brandon Spikes, Joe Haden, Brandon James (kick return). 5. According to Steele, Florida has the: Best quarterback duo in the country; second-best offensive line in the country (behind USC), second-best defensive line in the country (behind Oklahoma); second-best linebacking corps (behind Penn State); second-best defensive backfield in the country (behind USC); and second-best special teams unit in the country (behind Boise State). 6. Steele ranks the SEC as the nation's toughest conference for 2009, followed by Big 12, Pac-10, Big Ten, ACC, Big East and Mountain West. 7. Number of Gators named to First, Second, Third or Fourth-Team All-SEC: 15 8. "This year's squad has 18 returning starters and is the best that Meyer has put on the field. Despite the fact that their SEC schedule is tougher with just three SEC games in The Swamp, all 9 sets of my power rankings call for an unbeaten season and the Gators may have the best offense, defense and special teams in the country." 9. The No. 2-ranked freshman receiver in the country? Andre Debose. 10. The No. 1-ranked freshman offensive lineman in the entire country? Xavier Nixon. Nick Alajajian is No. 11. 11. The No. 2-ranked freshman linebacker? Jelani Jenkins. Jon Bostic is No. 14. 12. Steele ranked Florida's 2009 recruiting class as the sixth-best in the nation (but fourth in the SEC). 13. Steele has Dunlap and Spikes as top-10 NFL draft picks in 2010. He has Tebow as the 14th-best draft-eligible player, with Haden at 26. 14. Steele projects Florida to be No. 1 in the nation in rush defense, pass defense, points against and total defense in 2009. 15. Finally, Steele predicts Tebow will win the Heisman Trophy. "Tebow got my vote last year and while he had the most 1st place votes and outplayed the Heisman winner Sam Bradford in the bowl, he was just #3 in the voting. He put the Gators on his shoulders after the loss to Ole Miss and if the vote was done after the bowls he would have clearly won. Archie Griffin (the only two time winner) should get ready for some company." __ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4177 (20090622) __ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~--~~~~--~~--~--~--- <>

The stars: Tracy Caulkins was only a freshman but was well on her way to becoming the most dominant swimmer in Florida history; Kathy Treible went on to become one of only three UF swimmers to win 12 NCAA events; Megan Neyer never lost an NCAA diving event during her career as a Gator. What they did: In the first NCAA women's swimming and diving championship, Florida dominated in its home pool. The Gators easily outdistanced second-place Stanford 505-383. Caulkins grabbed five individual titles while her sister Amy also claimed one. Treible won three individual events and two relays as Florida was never threatened by the field. Big moment: Neyer was only a freshman but showed no freshman jitters. She won both the one-meter and three-meter diving events to get Florida's rout going. It was the first of her four sweeps in NCAA competition. Fun fact: Of the top 10 teams in the first NCAA swimming and diving championships, four were from the SEC and four were from the Pac-10. The other two were from the ACC. Quote: "We had a ton of depth starting with Tracy at the top. We had a lot of talent and that year we were able to put it all together to win. With the talent we had, we probably should have won more." - Kathy Treible-Slaton <>

A paradoxical non-dual <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondualism> awareness or rigpa <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigpa> (Tibetan <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibetan_language> - vidya in Sanskrit <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanskrit_language> ) - is said to be the 'self perfected state' of all beings. Scholarly works differentiate these traditions from monism <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monism> . The non-dual is said to be not immanent and not transcendent, not neither, nor both. One classical exposition is the Madhyamaka <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madhyamaka> refutation of extremes that the philosopher-adept Nagarjuna <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagarjuna> propounded. Exponents of this non-dual tradition emphasize the importance of a direct experience of non-duality through both meditative practice and philosophical investigation. In one version, one maintains awareness as thoughts arise and dissolve within the 'field' of mind <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind> , one does not accept or reject them, rather one lets the mind wander as it will until a subtle sense of immanence dawns. Vipassana or insight is the integration of one's 'presence of awareness' with that which arises in mind. Non-duality or rigpa is said to be the recognition that both the quiet, calm abiding state as found in samatha and the movement or arising of phenomena as found in vipassana are not separate. In this way it could be stated that Dzogchen is a method for the recognition of a 'pure immanence' analogous to what Deleuze <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilles_Deleuze> theorized about. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~--~~~~--~~--~--~--- <>

Something about a textbook scandal. The details aren't really important. There are major violations, but only because Alabama is to the rulebook what Michael Vick is to pit bulls. A constant, menacing threat. The question has become when aren't there major violations in Tuscaloosa? The latest penalties mean that 'Bama has been eligible to be an NCAA repeat offender since 1995.

It makes a program eligible for the NCAA death penalty. At Alabama, they scoff. It's a Crimson and White Groundhog Day every day. By the time Alabama's latest NCAA repeat offender clock stops ticking it will be 2014. That's 19 years of -- as one infractions committee chairman once put it -- "staring down the barrel of a gun" for the program. Nineteen years of being on death row. If this is staring down the barrel of a gun, then 'Bama is Dirty Harry. Make the Tide's day. Alabama's romp through the rules and regs is a clear indicator that SMU's death penalty in 1987 will be the one and only such punishment ever handed down. The NCAA will never again drop the hammer because in the Yellowhammer State we've seen that nobody does it better. Or worse. And keeps playing games. .

Apparently players were using leftover textbook money from their scholarships to buy books for friends and relatives. Big whoop. Alabama, though, is being forced to vacate victories under Mike Shula (2005-06) and Nick Saban (2007). Could be as many as 23. This isn't Bobby Bowden controversial. Some Tide fans will likely say good riddance to forgettable 6-7 and 7-6 seasons in '06 and '07. Once again, big whoop. There seems to be, though, a new age of wrongdoing. Some sort of anarchy has broken out. We knew the NCAA enforcement staff was outmanned. Now it is being outsmarted. The NCAA cops apparently sleep. The coaches? Not so sure. They are looking for ways to cut corners whether their compliance directors like it or not. A couple of years ago the coaches were up in arms about a ban on texting. Now we've got Twitter, and it's legal, until the next technology evolves to hound recruits. Saban got around a spring ban on head coaches meeting face-to-face with recruits by installing a webcam.

Original Message Subject: [gatornews] [SUN]: Fla. attorney general: NCAA must release letter From: "Shane Ford" Date: Sat, June 13, 2009 11:49 am To: gatorn...@googlegroups.com (GatorNEWS) Fla. attorney general: NCAA must release letter By BRENT KALLESTAD Associated Press Writer Published: Friday, June 12, 2009 at 5:53 p.m. Last Modified: Friday, June 12, 2009 at 5:53 p.m. The NCAA must release copies of its response to Florida State's appeal of penalties stemming from academic violations, Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum said Friday. In a letter addressed to NCAA president Myles Brand, the attorney general said failure to release the contents of the letter or provide access to them could result in a $1,000 fine, a year in jail, or both. "In as much as the NCAA has provided the letter in format which the university may only view, but not download or otherwise copy, it appears that the NCAA is therefore acting as the custodian of this record on behalf of the university," McCollum wrote. "A lack of physical custody of a document does not excuse Florida State University from its obligations under Florida law." NCAA spokeswoman Stacey Osburn said it had received the letter, but hadn't had a chance to review it. She said Thursday that private correspondence between the NCAA and its member institutions has long been established to maintain the integrity of investigations. Officials from Florida State did not immediately returns calls Friday seeking comment on McCollum's letter. Several news organizations, including The Associated Press, have formally requested a copy of the NCAA response to an appeal of sanctions resulting from an academic cheating scandal at the school that would strip it of wins in 10 sports, including victories achieved by longtime football coach Bobby Bowden. "The records request is therefore all the more important for the people of Florida, who wish to obtain vital information about a university matter in which have invested time, money and a sense of honor," McCollum wrote. Bowden could possibly lose as many as 14 of his career victories if the penalty from an academic cheating case sticks. That would make it difficult for Bowden to compete with Penn State's Joe Paterno in their race for most victories among major college coaches. Paterno begins the 2009 season with 383, one more than Bowden. McCollum, who is a Republican candidate for governor in 2010, said Florida statutes establishes a right of access to public records in plain and unequivocal terms. "I urge your compliance," he concluded. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~--~~~~--~~--~--~--- <>
