Hey Swampdog, you must not live anywhere near Jacksonville/Gainesville.
If I was meant to live that far north then I would have been born with more hair on my body.
It was the Orlando paper that first started investigating how many UF players have legal problems. UF is getting a bad reputation down here south of the frost line. You've got to remember down here people are split between UF, FSU, and UM. It means a lot to some parents to think that their kids won't be hanging out with thugs. Enough that they will urge their kids to play football elsewhere. It's already to the point that I think the 2010 recruiting class won't be as good as hoped for. I don't see it getting better either. It's almost as if the Gator fan base is more interested in denying a problem exists than in fixing it.
