Percy Falling in the Draft?

Percy Harvin may be falling out of the first round thanks to unsubstantiated rumors of a positive drug test for marijuana and a dismal score on the Wonderlic test.

Projected as high as #15 in the first round despite questions of durability and thanks to some outstanding workouts for the NFL scouts Percy is now projected as low as the second round.

There is nothing he can do about it either as Harvin signed with agent Joel Segal in February so he can't return to UF and maybe undo the damage. Monetarily it's a huge difference between first and second round money. Maybe millions of dollars in bonus money (the NFL doesn't have guaranteed contracts so players get "theirs" up front as bonus money).

Harvin in Free Fall?

Gator Spring Updates

Coach Urban Meyer says his wideouts are a little "behind' where they should be at this stage. On the positive side David Nelson, Carl Moore, Aaron Hernandez and Deonte Thompson have looked very impressive at times. Redshirt freshman Omarius Hines is out for the spring and fellow frosh TJ Lawrence has looked good at times but the guy to watch is Frankie Hammonds, Jr. whose combination of speed, hands and instincts have been eye opening.

Chris Rainey showed he is recovering fast from off season groin surgery with an amazing 40 yard TD run in practice where he stopped on a dime, reversed direction and sprinted to the end zone untouched.

Emmanuel Moody is having an extremely strong spring so far and is impressing the coaching staff tremendously with his performance, hard work and skills.

True Freshman LB Jon Bostic is the new little buddy for MLB Brandon Spikes. Spikes is grooming the talented youngster for the MLB position and he is seen frequently with the freshman in tow.

Tim Tebow talking trash? Apparently he is having a ball this spring and he has been constantly razzing the defense. They point out the 5 picks they have on him so far this spring. ; )

What was an issue is now a strength. Defensive Tackle got a boost when Omar Hunter looked over the injuries he suffered last year that redshirted him. Fellow RS Frosh Earl Okine is up to 280lbs on his 6'7 frame and he has switched to DT joining Hunter, starters Lawrence Marsh, Terron Sanders, Troy Epps, Edwin Herbert, Brandon Antwine and the star of the DL so far this spring, Jaye Howard. Five star freshman Gary Brown will join the DT ranks this summer.

Hello from Reel Land

Just a test to see if I can actually contribute. Thanks Bill for putting this together. Should definitely curtail the drive-by flamers.

A Better (I Hope) Alternative

Now that AOL has flushed a 15 year old plus messageboard down the toilet I hope this works as an alternative. There is a learning curve but it's not too steep.
