Teach your children how to count with the Tim Tebow Counting Game. You got that right, folks. The Tim Tebow Counting Game is arithmetic's answer to Hooked on Phonics. Your little Florida Gator-to-be will be counting to 100 in no time flat by using this product. OK, OK, so there's no official product called the Tim Tebow Counting Game. But you can certainly make one based off this YouTube video I stumbled across this morning. It features Tim Tebow highlights from last year's SEC Championship Game, when the Virgin Tebow took apart the Alabama Crimson Tide and set the stage for the Gators' second BCS championship. Although it's not expressed by the posters of this video, I think they're trying to make you count how many times Tebow's name was said during the CBS broadcast. I counted 102 Tebow reference and another YouTube commenter counted 104, so the Tim Tebow Counting Game may not be a great way to teach your children accurate addition. Regardless, it's still a fun way to pass the time.

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 -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

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

Tennessee's Lane Kiffin will take his recruiting message to South Florida with an I-95 billboard 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 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 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 -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

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

Original Message Subject: [gatornews] [SUN]: Early wake-up call for UF practices From: Shane Ford goufgat...@bellsouth.net Date: Fri, July 31, 2009 8:36 am To: gatorn...@googlegroups.com (GatorNEWS) Early wake-up call for UF practices From Gainesville SUN staff reports Published: Thursday, July 30, 2009 at 10:01 p.m. Last Modified: Thursday, July 30, 2009 at 10:01 p.m. The Florida football team will do more before 8 a.m. than most people do all day. Well, at least next week, and, you get to watch. But just for the first two days. Florida's first two days of training camp -- Aug. 6 and Aug. 7 -- will be open to the public at the UF football practice field. The season's first practice will take place Thursday from 6:10 a.m. until 8 a.m. and will consist only of returning players. Freshmen will practice later that day from 5:10 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. On Friday, Aug. 7, returning players will again practice from 6:10 a.m. until 8 a.m., while freshmen will take the field from 4:35 p.m. until 6 p.m. Practice then moves to the UVS Fields, and will no longer be open to the public and the media due to space constraints. Fans are reminded that no video cameras are allowed at UF practices. size=2 color=black face=Verdana BR --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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) -

[gatortalk] Re: New group
New group? Iowa? Gator club? What on earth are you talking about, Keith? In all honesty, one of our group (Fran?) mentioned a friend in Iowa who wanted to start a gator club, and we kicked it around a bit and offered suggestions. Cheryl (below) must be the friend and she just joined Gatortalk.

If so, can't the poster go to the google groups website and dig through old messages ? I was thinking Fran started that discussion? Original Message Subject: [gatortalk] New group From: Cheryl ccad...@msn.com Date: Fri, July 31, 2009 7:09 am To: GatorTalk Gatortalk@googlegroups.com Hi all ~ I'm looking to start a Gator club in Des Moines, IA. I've not been able to locate one as of yet, so I don't know if one already exists or not, and I'd like to find out if there's an interest here.
