I've read the statute referred to by the Senator. I don't believe it applies to the NCAA's crooked actions in this case, but I'm far from an expert on the subject and hope I'm wrong. I'd love nothing more than the FL Attorney General to rattle the NCAA's cage.

@Chris: Hey, don't get your panties in a bunch Dorothy. I know you're upset but take a deep breath and relax. Oh, really original with the scum thing. Clever, er, or something.

Does anyone remember the VT game? Remember when UM rarely had a guy keyed in on Logan Thomas? UM was utterly befuddled by the idea that Logan Thomas, a running QB, might actually run the ball from time to time. Either our DC is completely incompetent or our players are really, really bad. Look, if D'Onofrio doesn't show some significant improvement then he's got to go.

Okay, hosting UF should be awesome. I already have my Muschamp voodoo doll ready to go. Hosting GT will be interesting, especially with GT losing so much on O. VT will be much better this year. Here's the kicker, UVA. UVA has beat UM 3 years in a row. They're a divisional rival. They have been the bane of UM's existence for years (OB disaster). You would think fans would pack the house in November to see some payback. We'll see.

What the fudge is going on? UM host FAU and 1AA Savannah St.? Yippee! I get hosting one but both? Does the admin expect fans to show up for BOTH of these when they won't even show up for K.St., NCSt. and UVA? Whoever agreed to this schedule should be fired. The Big Ten is seriously considering only playing 1A teams. They have the right idea. Scheduling both FAU and Savannah St. is a ripoff for the fan and does nothing but make UM football BORING when UM is trying to break out and get back into the national spotlight.

Is it possible that UF lost at home to Duke, GA Southern, and got swept by Fl.Gulf Coast in baseball? Really? I told you Gators that from '09-'12 you were having your moment in the sun so you'd better win that title. For UF baseball, that moment in the sun is obviously way, way over with no title to show for it. As these things come in cycles, there's always the 2020's.

If Shapiro said the same thing twice the NCAA considered such statement to be corroborated. Memo to Emmert: A self-corroborating statement is a contradiction in terms. A declarant cannot corroborate his own statement. His statement is corroborated by an external statement, documentation, etc. To use a "self-corroborating" statement is either a sign of complete incompetence or outright malice.

Dang, Donna's come out swinging. You've got to wonder what the administration and their attorneys will do about this.

@playthefreshman: What have QB's Dewey and Crow done? Nothing. They're freshman so they rode the bench behind Morris, the junior. What did Williams do? Nothing. Morris beat him out. What's your problem? Do you think true freshmen would beat out a junior? You must be new to college football. Why don't you go back to your sewing circle and leave football to us men folk.

This kid is really something. He reminds me of Tyrod Taylor. So, I'm guessing Olsen will be redshirted and will battle in 2014 and Alin will redshirt and battle in 2015. If this is the case then our pipeline of QB's has gotten unbelievably solid.

@jls14234: Don't get your panties in a bunch Dorothy. You've become quite the grump over the past 12 months. I'm just saying I'm tired about reading of all the arrests at UF. They should stop publishing the stories and move on. Let's just take it as a given that a UF player will get arrested about once every 1.5 months and just write about something else, like the good recruiting class of 2013. I'm on your side man!

More NCAA self investigation. Remember when the outside law firm investigating the NCAA would give a report within 2 weeks? Well, the end of this week is 2 weeks. Why do I have a feeling this internal investigation will take a month or 2, not weeks. Anyway, check out the latest below: http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/blog/dennis-dodd/21651874/ncaa-vice-president-approved-payment-to-attorney-of-miami-booster

UM baseball is in such disrepair that this season might be painful. I'll watch as much as I can but with one eye closed. Sorry but if Morris doesn't have a strong season then he needs to be replaced.

I wish the Seminoles would win the NC and be done with it. Why do they keep toying with the college football world?

Bowl bans? Credit time served. Penalties coming down should be a fine, mandatory implementation of compliance mechanisms (already done), and scholly losses. The scholly losses should be manageable and AG has been preparing for this for 2 years now with the distribution of scholarships given last year and this year. We all know that the thing killing this program for 2 years is the UNCERTAINTY. Remove this variable and UM should bounce back strong.

Does he have so little game day pull that he would leave FSU? Interesting discussion but I just see it happening.

Some of you people are pieces of work. Morris is the starter next year. Olsen will not start and may even be redshirted. He'll have time to learn and get better. This isn't that hard to figure out.

When the NFL comes knocking with big opportunities and big $$$ then I can't blame Jedd or any coach. The Jags saw that Jedd produced enough at UM and has confidence in him which means AG made a decent hire. The trick is to thoughtfully and properly replace him. There will be plenty of solid candidates out there, don't worry.

Does anyone know anything about Danny Dillard? I know he's going to be in the backfield but just wondering what type of back he'll be and what are his strengths and weaknesses.

Collins and Duke would be a devastating one-two punch. Come on to UM Alex!

Posted by a Gator, "A few arrests here and there do not change that." Glad I was sitting down when I read that...

He threw it all away. Hope he can rebound and get it together.
