    Anyone remember the Canadian runningback recruit reported in the Independent Florida Alligator Kerry DeBall? Jack Hairston had a hissy-fit over it.

    Just thought. He gone. Looks like Tommy John. We might not ever see him pitch again at Florida. What a shame

    I don't know what the code is about linking to other Gator sites, but it's been reported that Coppola is officially out for the season.

    From back surgery to shoulder surgery, wing—we don’t have a corner on the market for bad luck I guess.

    I remember the hoax story in SI about a young pitcher I think the name was Sidd Finch who reportedly threw 160 mph or something like that and was from France Hairston picked it up and wrote about it IIRC. George Plimpton wrote it and SI photog provided pics, it was an elaborately done April Fools story. Hairston was incensed at SI for running it. I'm not sure if he wrote about it or was just pissed at SI for doing it.
