Gators first. I'm not saying it's my way of life. I'm just saying it's my way of life on Saturdays.
It's about being in a zone... It's getting up earlier than usual for a weekend morning so you can turn on the TV and see what Chris, Lee and Kirk have to say about our Gators.
It's putting on the same shirt you wore last week because the offense looked so great, but not wearing the same hat because they fumbled the ball when you put it on.
It's feeling like your energy is crucial to the Gators success, whether you're cheering them on live or watching them on TV.
It's all about the zone. If you're a Gator, you know exactly what I mean.
On Saturdays, don't talk to me about politics, your ex-best friend, or the NFL...
Saturdays are for Gator football.

Report: Calathes Declaring For The NBA Draft

According to sources at ESPN, Nick Calathes will declare for the NBA draft. However the 6'6" point guard from Casselberry, FL will not hire an agent. This is crucial piece of information because he has now until the declaration deadline to make his final decision. If he would decide to hire an agent, he would give up his right to ever play college basketball again.
My message to Mr. Calathes is this: STAY IN SCHOOL! Yes, you are very talented. I'm sure scouts are drooling at your stats, as well as your size in relation to other point guards. However, you seemed to break down late in the season, somewhere around game 27 or so. Do you know that the NBA plays 82 games in the regular season? You need to bulk up and become more of a pass-first PG. With a premier freshman scorer coming next year in Kenny Boynton, you'll have the opportunity to flourish as a passer and not have to be the prime scoring threat. Another year of dazzling scouts with your ability to LEAD will give you a better shot at getting that lottery pick that you covet.
