2009-06-22 Thread Dave Rice
JNene,

Yes, I know Ashley & Nate via the Lone Star Gator Club. Thanks for the
update about them!

Returned from the Caribbean. Lots of Gators on the cruise, although we
didn't have a Gator Gathering of any sort.

Later & Go Gators!

Another open roster spot, which might be filled by an incoming freshman
offensive lineman like Xavier Nixon: 

 

 
 

 

Xavier is a 6-6, 285 lb. true Freshman from Fayetteville, N.C. (Jack Britt
HS) who has name the High School Maxwell Award winner among offensive
linemen, and also played on defense with 50 tackles recorded in HS in
limited playing time. Both of his parents are in the U.S. Military and have
served in the Middle East. His father has been stationed in Afghanistan, but
was approved for leave to see Nixon commit to the Gators at the U.S. Army
All-American Bowl in Orlando, Fla.

Florida Gators get plenty of love in Phil Steele's 2009 preview


by Ben Volin 

Just got my handy 328-page Phil Steele's College Football 2009 Preview in
the mail this weekend, and not surprisingly, Steele loves the Gators.

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."
