1. Alabama forced to forfeit 21 wins.
Not really that big of a deal because this has no effect on the future of the program. Only important thing I can see, especially from a Gator standpoint, is that Urban Meyer's worst loss as Florida's coach is no longer on the books.
2. Lane Kiffin commits about a zillion more recruiting infractions.
Not even going to provide a link for this one because there's too many to link. This guy is so in over his head it's ridiculous. He may be able to put together a good team but I think the only way he is going to be able to do it is by putting UT on probation.
3. Starting Florida CB Janoris Jenkins arrested.
Another Gator arrested for being drunk in a club. He is Florida's best CB (Sorry Joe it's true) and because the charges are all misdemeanors he will miss one maybe two games and be ready by the time Tennessee comes to town.
4. Athlon anoints Gators as preseason #1 team.
No surprise there. What DID surprise me:
- Oklahoma gets #2 over Texas
- Florida State at #15 (too high)
- North Carolina at #19 (too low)
- Penn Sate at #7 (not really a surprise but I'd be shocked if they finish the season in the Top 10)
Looks like Rex Ryan has some scouting to do!
That's it for now. If anything earth shattering happens (please oh please NCAA nail Pete Carrol and the USC Trojans) I'll be back to comment on it. If not it'll probably be a while until my next update.
Only about 2 more months till fall camp begins!
