I'm not an athlete so I'm just making this up as I type, but I would think it would be very good for the development of a player to put in more study time for the sport.  These months that they're supposed to be taking off could be full of watching tape, studying fundamentals, learning playbooks, etc.  All of that will translate to [sport] IQ which will maybe help more than a few more months of practice and competition.  The article seems to imply there's a law of diminishing returns after a certain number of months a year on the field.

Still, FCS schools are Division I schools.  The S in FBS/FCS stands for Subdivision.  It's kind-of amazing that the Wisconsin AD doesn't know that.

So you're saying Florida is the only team in the East to land any 5-star players?  [UFL1138 likes this.]

So do minors need parental consent to sign a LOI?  Do all LOIs (from high school seniors) need a parent's signature, too?

 

At least she didn't do it on National TV.  Amiright, Landon Collins?

Actually Florida had told Powell already that they wouldn't be saving a spot for him today.

As a Gator fan who watched Tebow & Co.'s dreams of 3-out-of-4 BCS titles crushed by the Tide, I have to admit I was rooting against Bama successfully doing that.  It was close, though -- I wanted Alabama to lose by one point.  The thought was that since ND isn't a member of any conference, it's not as if the glory would go to a conference other than the SEC anyway.  If it had been a team in any other conference I would have been rooting for Alabama.  My two-year-older sister and her husband hate LSU more than Alabama but I'm the opposite way: somewhat positive attitude towards LSU but bitter hatred for the Tide.  As for me, no, I don't think I'll ever be over Macho Grande.  (Yes, that's my nickname for the 2009 SEC Championship Game.)

 

I frankly don't hate the Tide as much as I did prior to this season, though.  I think Muschamp has us going in the right direction.  Prior to our respective bowl games, it sure seemed as if Florida were on par with Alabama.  I see the Sugar Bowl as a fluke, just like Alabama's 2009 Sugar Bowl.
