    I thought everybody would enjoy reading this.

    Hint: When Shemar James uses "stud" three times in a single sentence, I pay special attention. Lots more . . .

    It was clear how important Shemar James was to a defense that seemingly got worse after his injury in the loss to Georgia in 2023. For a team that suffered four straight losses while allowing a total of 1,914 yards during that span, a major change was needed. We are just a couple days into spring practice in year three of Billy Napier, and the Gators are close to getting their leader back on defense.

    Sounds like this year's Linebacker room is going to be an upgrade over last year's injured and depleted group of players.

    Defense was better in first 6 games and went downhill particularly following the Ga. beatdown when Shamar went out. His speed and athleticism were badly missed.
