Committee further narrows provost search
* OFFICIALS HOPE FOUR TO SIX
FINALISTS WILL BE CHOSEN TODAY.
By MIKE GIMIGNANI
Alligator Staff Writer
mgimignani@alligator.org
The committee searching for UF's No. 2
administrator is expected to name a hand-
ful of finalists at its meeting today just
as it did three months ago.
Doug Barrett, Provost Search
Committee chairman, said Monday he
hopes searchers will name four .to six fi-
nalists at their'meeting today from a list of
10 academics from around-the nation. The
candidates who make-the short list will be
interviewed early next week.,
The committee started its meeting
Monday with 12 semi-finalists, nine men
and three women. However, candidates
Frederick Steiner and Robert Freeman,
both deans at the University of Texas at
Austin, were placed on
the "back burner," said
Steve Orlando, a spokes-
man for UF.
UF President Bernie
Machen called off the
first round of the search
Machine February, criticizing
the pool of finalists for
not having the "breadth and depth needed
for this important position."
Machen invited two finalists from
February's search, one of whom is UF's
own College of Engineering Dean, Pramod
Khargonekar, who is hanging in the race,
but will not need to face the committee's
questions a second time.
"[Machen] has unequivocally stated
he appreciates us working [Khargonekar]

the list.
Originally, the index number was
calculated using the. passing rates of
schools, but many schools kept their
rates artificially high by allowing only
top students to take courses or discour-
aging average students from taking ex-
ams, Matthews said.

AROUND GAINESVILLE
Road sinkhole
scare ending
By CRYSTAL HENRY
Alligator Writer
Florida Department of Transpottation officials
said Monday that they expect repairs for the sink-
hole that opened up under Southwest 34th Street
last week to be completed by Friday.
Spokeswoman Gina Busscher said the sinkhole,
found last week in the southbound lane of 34th
Street across from Maguire Village, was the cause
of a pothole that would not stay filled.
The pothole was 3 feet deep and 8 to 10 feet in
diameter. After investigating engineers performed
ground-penetrating radar tests, the sinkhole was
measured to be about 30 feet deep.
Sixteen holes will soon be drilled down into the
ground, and grout will be pumped into each cav-
ity to repair the crevasse.
Busscher estimated that it would cost approxi-
mately $40,000 to repair the sinkhole through an
outside contractor, which will be paid out of the
state gas tax fund.
The DOT will then repave the road out of its
own budget. Busscher said she did not know how
much those repairs would cost.
The center lane was expected to be reopened
at 7 p.m. Monday but would probably be closed
again this morning.
She said traffic has been smooth other than the
morning and evening rush hours.
The Gainesville Police Department traffic divi-
sion could not be reached for comment concerning
two accidents reported last week on Southwest
34th Street.
One accident, which was reported Friday af-
ternoon, involved Kenneth M. Clyatt. Although
he could not be reached for comment, his grand-
mother said he was rear-ended near the construc-
tion.
There are no other recently reported sinkholes
on Gainesville roads but the DOT is always "look-
ing for tell-tale signs," such as potholes that won't
stay filled like this one or depressions in the
pavement, like the sinkhole which interrupted
Interstate 75 traffic in March, Busscher said.

Editorial
Join the club
We need your opinions,
your succulent opinions
It's that lovely time again.
Old Man Summer has called many of us away with
the promise of a low-paying job, a "credit-paying" in-
ternship, or just lazy days.
And our friend Graduation has called more of us to fol-
low the dream of no more pencils, no more books and no
more Gainesville in their looks.
The time has come to bake the bun that has waited
patiently in our oven these past few weeks, made of the
sweet, soft dough of controversy.
Or we can stop trying (and failing) to wax poetic and
come right out with it: We need people with strong opin-
ions to come forward.
The Alligator needs columnists, and it needs letters to
the editor.
Of course we could live without them, but we think it's
a lot fairer to you, the reader, to have all sides covered.
Look to the bottom-left-hand side of the page, directly
under this diatribe. See only two of us running things
opinion-wise? There's no way we're the only ones who
want to speak up this summer.
To get involved, we'd love it if those so inclined could
send us a 500-word column on current events,which can
include how bored everyone is right now.
There are lots of ideas to choose from. For instance,. UF
administrators waited until just this boring time to look
for a new provost, the second-most important person in
the UF universe.
The bar closing time is stuck at 2 a.m.
There are no longer drunk bitches on Friday, at least not
on the radio.
Oh, and the United State s in the fourth year of its War
on Terror; our country's Chief Justice is 80 years old; Terri
Schiavo's gone; Pope John Paul II's gone; and Mr. Garrison
is now (apparently) a woman..
Strangest of all, that chick from "Nip/Tuck" is now (ap-
parently) a man.
Anger can be a plus here. But we digress.
No value judgments of our own with the above ex-
amples: We want to know what you think:
Here be the details:
E-MAIL: letters@alligator.org
PHONE: (352) 376-4458
MAIL: 1105 W University Ave
Gainesville, FL 32604
Or, we're available all day Mondays and Wednesdays
for those who want to come in and talk to us.
If 500 words is too rich for the blood, a 150-word letter
to the editor will fit the bill quite nicely.
We also need more permanent people in our Rolodex,
those who wouldn't mind weighing in with their com-
ments twice a week, including once in a while donning
the special (padded) headgear that says you, Opinionated
Individual, are now a member of the Department of Darts
and Laurels.
I A finely tuned machine to rage against might be the
only thing that will get us through these dark, colorless
times.
Or we can just look forward to Summer B.
Ooh, fresh blood.

Age a silly factor in
L egally speaking, allowing a 13-year-old Pinellas
County girl to have an abortion last week wasn't
a difficult decision indeed, Judge Alvarez. Roe
v. Wade, contested as the case remains, established the
precedent for the right of any woman to end her preg-
nancy if she so chooses.
That's any woman, not only those who meet special
qualifications.
Which is precisely -what the Department of Children
and Families, the girl's guardian, was asking, in its law-
suit to prevent the girl from having an abortion. Its re-
quested provision? That she be-ruled too young to make
such a decision.
So let's review: She's old enough to conceive but n'ot
to abort. Now, I'm only a journalist, but that math seems
funny even to me.
That age somehow qualifies a person to shoulder
certain responsibilities is absurd and arbitrary.
-So sweet is 16 that a teenager is rendered capable of
driving a car without supervision, but up to the very

Perhaps most interestingly in this girl's case is that
at her- same tender 13, the Jewish faith considers a boy

Christian children elect to receive confirmation, the cer-

The law is supposed to be equitable and fair, which
doesn't allow for the subjectivity that comes with "mo-

would that be any less arbitrary a boundary than age?
This girl's case makes a bigger point as a tragic ex-

Guest column
Recruiters pray on informed to increase military enlistment
Uncle Sam wants you whether you're
a mental patient, drug addict, high
school dropout or felon.
That's right; military enlistment is down,
and recruiters are doing whatever it takes to
fill their quotas, and I mean whatever it takes.
Anyone is good enough to sign up, not
just the few and the proud. Just imagine the
combat operations when schizophrenics and
pill-poppers are manning the front lines.
The issue was brought to network televi-
sion when CBS News .featured a story May
2 about a 17-year-old student who recorded
unethical recruiting behaviors.
High school journalist David McSwane of
Aruda, Colo., posed as a prospective Army
recruit. He told recruiters he was a -high
school dropout and that he had no diploma.
The Army recruiters told him to create a fake
diploma from a non-existent school; they even
told him the name of a fake school to use.
McSwane bought a fake diploma for $200
and presented it to the recruiters.
- McSwane proceeded to tell the recruit-
ers he had an addiction to marijuana he just
couldn't kick. The recruiters had a solution:
They instructed him to purchase a "detox"
solution so he could pass the drug test.
Gaia VeeniS McSwane recorded
Gaa Veenis conversations between
U-Wire himself and the two
recruiters and had one
of his friends videotape a recruiting sergeant
driving McSwane to a store to buy the detox;
thus, the recruiters were caught red-handed.
The Army's own records document more
than- 320 "recruitment improprieties" last year
alone recruiters also say for every impro-
priety discovered there are at least two more
undiscovered, according to the article. And
that's after the Army's already relaxed age
and education requirements and strengthened
incentives such as enlistment bonuses.
Recruiters have the power to let many
things slide .in order to keep people enlisting.
Just imagine a person with mental illness
being given a weapon. Or worse, climbing
ranks and being in charge of other young
people. Picture ground combat situations in
which people with recurring physical prob-
lems are expected to perform the tasks of a
perfectly healthy soldier.
I don't know about you, but I don't feel safe
with the picture of that military in my mind.
Gaia Veenis is a columnist for the Daily
Aztec of San Diego State University.
Guest column
Supreme Court has already set standard of life in abortion
although the position oc-
cupied by John Kerry and.
other pro-choice politicians
(opposed to abortion personally but
believing it should not be subject to
stringent government regulation)
sounds measured and balanced,
their position nonetheless leads to
some gruesome scenarios.
For example, I cite the "selective
reduction" described in a July 12
New York Times Magazine article,
"When One is Enough," where a
woman expecting triplets decided
to abort two of the three fetuses
because it would compel her finan-
dally to abandon her Manhattan
lifestyle, move to the suburbs, and
go "shopping only at Costco and
buy big jars of mayonnaise.".
No kidding.
David Brooks, 'the kind-of con-
servative columnist for the New
York Times (imagine the print
version of John McCain), recently
examined the fountain from which
such passion spouts.
In his April 20 column, he as-
cribes the "cycle of viciousness and
counter-viciousness" of the abortion
debate, particularly in regard to judi-
cial nominations, to Supreme Court
Robert Justice Harry
Schneider Blackmun
U-Wire and his fel-
low justices,
who in 1973
essentially invented a right to abor-
tion in the Constitution.
Brooks correctly notes that such a
decision, which effectively stripped
the discussion from legislative
bodies and moved the .abortion
battleground to the courts, has "sup-
pressed that democratic abortion
debate the nation needs to have."
The 1973- Supreme Court deter-
mined that in the first trimester of
pregnancy, there was an absolute
right to abortion; the state could
regulate it in the second trimester
but only to safeguard the woman's
health; and in the third trimester, the
state can ban or regulate abortion, as
long as exceptions are made for the
woman's health.
So what happens if the viability
of the fetus could be obtained some-
where down the road, -in the first
trimester, where abortion is guaran-
tec Sacha Zimmerman. writing in
the The Neo. R-puibc, makes the
case that advances in medicine (such
as ectogenesis, which is the "process
by which a fetus gestates in an en-
vironment external, to its mother")
could eventually lead to a fetus being
viable from conception. Zimmerman
notes that "if and when that hap-
pens, the legal and -philosophical
premises underpinning Roe could be
completely dismantled."
It is evident that Blackmun, os-
tensibly acting with the best interests
of the nation at heart,-rendered one
of the most confusing decisions in
American history. He should have let
the citizenry settle the debate itself.

Despite continued airing, Lex and Terry future uncertain
By DAVID COHEN
Alligator Writer
dcohen@alligator.org
The saga between Cox Radio
and WRUF is still resonating as
UF's radio station continues to
air the "Lex and Terry Morning
Show" without the controversial
"Drunk Bitch Friday" segment
that recently came under fire
from UF President Bernie Machen
and the Federal Communications
Commission for indecency.
And with cancellation of the
show still a possibility, about
60 WRUF student employees'
salaries may dwindle, a station
administrator said.
About a month ago, all charg-
es were dropped by the FCC, but
Machen's stance on binge and
underage drinking prohibited the
airing of "Drunk Bitch Friday."
Then, Peter Welpton, the direc-
tor of syndication for the Lex and
Terry Morning Radio Network,
told the Alligator that the entire
Lex and Terry show soon would
leave WRUF.
"At some point, we are going
to be forced to hold the station
in breach of contract and be
forced to remove the show from
the radio station," Welpton said.
"We're talking about a matter of
days. Not just Friday's segment;
we are removing the show."
That was on April 19; but now,
nearly a month later, Lex and
Terry still can be heard on WRUF
weekday mornings.
"The landscape has changed,"
said Larry Dankner, general man-
ager for WRUF.
Cox Radio allowed the col-
lege station to continue to run
the show Monday through
Friday with a "best of" on Friday,
Dankner said. He added that this
has been agreed upon for an in-
definite period of time and that
cancellation of the show could
still happen.
'W e 1 p ton
could not be
reached. for fur-
ther comment.
However, de-
spite the change,
Dankner said
the relationship
Lex between the
station and its
syndicate is still intact-.
Lex and Terry's show is one of
the top morning radio programs
in the country, which helps "gen-
erate good ad revenue," Dankner
said.
But he added that if the show
left, his station would survive.
Dankner estimated about 60
students work for WRUF, and
the time they spend experienc-
ing practical application of their
education would not change if
the cash flow was reduced.
"I would be looking at ways to
reduce my expenses before I would
reduce personnel," he said.
WRUF has 14 full-time em-
ployees whose salaries are gener-
ated by -the station, but Thomas
Krynski, news director for WRUF,
said he is not too worried.
"I don't think full-time em-
ployees feel threatened by it,"
he said.
However, he did not dismiss
that students could be affected.
"It's possible that if you can't
pay students, you have to see if
.they would be interested in vol-
unteering," he said.
But he added that WRUF is
rare in this case.
"If you look around at the
country, most students are not
getting paid to work at their col-
lege radio station."
Dankner said that the uni-
versity will not
subsidize the
radio station
because it is an
auxiliary arm
of UF.
W e re
expected to
T generate our
Terry own revenue to
keep the operations going," he
said. "With the revenue we are
generating, we are supporting
the educational mission of the
telecommunication students."
Professors in the college
would not be affected by any fi-
nancial losses, Dankner said.

Firm seeks diverse pool of finalists
PROVOST, from page 1
through the system," Barrett said. "The
goal, from Bernie's perspective, is to have
no more than four total [final recommenda-
tions] meaning he would prefer three,
plus Pramod."
"It's very easy in this search
to make a pool of white male
scientists."
Jan Greenwood
Greenwood & Associates consultant
Khargonekar served as associate chair of
the University of Michigan's Department
of Electrical Engineering and Computer
Science from 1995 to 1997, at the same time
Machen served as provost there.
Several of the semifinalists have ties to
UF, but only Khargonekar currently works
at the university.
Among the candidates under the commit-
tee's scope is one provost Raymond Alden
III of the University of Nevada at Las Vegas
- one associate provost and eight deans.
For the second probe, Machen report-
edly outlined to search firm Greenwood &
Associates that he did not want a medical
doctor, and that diversity had to be a focus.
"It's very easy in this search to make
a pool of white male scientists," Jan
Greenwood, a consultant for Greenwood &
Associates said, adding that creating a di-
verse population requires her firm to think
"broader and more creatively."
Greenwood said 372 individuals con-
tacted or were contacted by the searchers as
possible candidates.
But even the current list of candidates
could whittle down in the coming weeks. At-
least two of the 12 have received or will re-
ceive job offers from other external searches,
Greenwood said.
Interim Provost Joe Glover, who has
served since December when former Provost
David Colburn stepped down, has agreed to
stay on until a replacement is found.
UF officials have said the process needs
to be completed as close to June 1 as pos-
sible. The chosen finalist will take the posi-
tion on August 1.
The committee will meet to decide the
finalists at 8:30 a.m. in the Century A Room
of the Hilton UF Conference Center.

Gators face South Florida after falling in rankings
By TIM CASEY
Alligator Writer
tcasey@alligator.org
After pre-season polls were released, the
tenth-ranked UF baseball team was picked to
finish in third place.
More accurately, the Gators were predicted
to end up as the third-best team in the Eastern
Division of the Southeastern Conference.
At the time, coach Pat McMahon and his
players said they relished the underdog role
and boldly said they would surprise their crit-
ics throughout the season.
The Gators lived up to their word, reaching
a No. 3-ranking on April 24.
However, things have taken a decidedly
different turn since then, with the team falter-
ing in three consecutive series, including two
key SEC weekends.
UF returned home from Arkansas with an
11-10 victory on Sunday after dropping the
first two games of the series.
"They're battling their hearts out,"
McMahon said of the series. "We may not
always win, but we'll give it our best."
The Gators (32-15) fell to second place
in the SEC with the two losses to No. 19
Arkansas.
Despite the losses, the Gators won't have
any time to lick their wounds. The team will
play five games in the next six days.
"They're battling their hearts out.
We may'not always win, but we'll
give it our best."
Pat McMahon
UF baseball coach
"Fatigue is a factor," McMahon said. "It's
not so much physical though. Mental fatigue
is sometimes more difficult."
The Gators will host South Florida (27-25)
tonight at McKethan Stadium and will then
travel to Tampa on Wednesday for a rematch
with the Bulls.
Freshman lefty Stephen Locke (5-1, 3.00
ERA) will make his eighth career start for
-the Gators, a decision McMahon made be-
cause of the importance of the late-season
game.
"These games all go towards postseason
play," McMahon said. "This game was sched-
uled three weeks ago to make up for games
lost to rainouts."
Adam Davis (.320, 47 RBI) continues to
swing a hot bat for the Gators. He led the team
with a .500 (7-for-14) performance at Arkansas
and is currently fifth in SEC games with a .390
average. Over his last 10 games, the second
baseman leads the Gators in batting average
(.415), hits (17), RBI (14), runs (12) and stolen
bases (two).
Women's golf finishes 7th, still hope for championship
By NICK ZACCARDI
Alligator Writer
If there is something in the wa-
ter at the University Golf Course,
the UF women's golf team still
hasn't found it.
Maybe the Gators should ask
Ohio State.
No. 11 UF finished seventh as
host of the NCAA East Regional
at 886 (+46), 30 shots behind the
tournament-winning Buckeyes.
The Gators' first-round ef-
fort of 7-over-par all but as-
sured UF of a top-eight finish
needed to advance to the NCAA
Championships in Bend, Ore., on
May 17-20.
"Although this wasn't the
finish we wanted, I'll take tAs
finish," Coach Jill Briles-Hinton
said. "I equate Regionals to Q-
School [Qualifying School for
LPGA]. You've got to get through
it to play. Now they can just relax
and go play golf [at the NCAA
Championships]."
While UF has placed outside of
the top five in both tournaments
at the University Golf Course in
2005, Ohio State adds the victory
to its fourth place finish at the
Gator Invitational in March.
"This is a hard golf course,"
Briles-Hinton
said. "It's a gem
right here in
the middle of
^g Florida."
After second
and third rounds
of 301 (+21) and
Briles-Hinton 298 (+17), UF
fell from second
to seventh, though the Gators still
advanced by 17 shots.
Ohio State went wire-to-wire
for the team win, while Anna
Grzebien of Duke claimed the
individual title by a single shot
at 1-under.
Sandra- Gal led a freshman-
laden UF contingent, earning a tie
for tenth at 217 (+7).
Gal played solid golf during
Saturday's final round, recording
just two bogeys en 'route to a 2-
over-par 72.
"[The final round] was very
steady. I hit a lot of greens, made
some good up and downs," Gal
said. "Unfortunately I missed a
couple birdie putts. I didn't have
one birdie. It was a little unlucky,
but I feel good about my round."
The German native fired
rounds of 71 and 74 on Friday to
match the best finish of her fresh-
man campaign.
"We've really been splitting it
up on who has been the top gun,"
Briles-Hinton said. "Whitney
was last [at the Southeastern
Conference Championships],
Sandra was this week, Tiffany's
been there in the past and Andrea
has led us all year long.
"Hopefully in Nationals we
can put it all together."

SOFTBALL
No. 23 Gators show 'Cats no mercy
STAFF REPORT
The UF softball team finished.
its regular season on a high note.
Just a week after suffering
through a seven-game losing
streak, the Gators rebounded
this weekend, completing a
three-game sweep of Kentucky
and taking their fifth consecutive
victory.
The No. 23 Gators (41-19,
18-12 Southeastern Conference)
dominated the Wildcats (20-41,
4-25 SEC), lighting up the score-
board for 32 runs on the week-
end and allowing just four.
The Gators struck early in
game one of Saturday's double-
header. First baseman Melissa
Zick and designated player
Mandy Schuerman began the
first inning by drawing consecu-
tive walks, and Kristen Butler
drove them in with a three-run
homer.
The Gators added to their lead
in the top of the second as Lauren
Roussell, Lacy Howard and
Stacie Pestrack loaded the bases
for Lindsey Cameron. Cameron,
'batting just one for eight since
returning from her wrist injury,
put the Gators up 7-1 with her
second career grand slam.
The Gators scored another
run in the fifth and put the game
away by the eight-run mercy rule
in the sixth.
UF pitcher Stacey Stevens
struck out eight and improved to
23-11 in the 13-1 Gators victory.
The Gators, continued their
offensive fireworks in game two

Kentucky struggled defen-
sively in the inning, committing

their first out.
Once -again, pitcher Stacey
Stevens put the game away in

The Gators completed the

OVER THE BREAK: The Kentucky

wins were crucial as the Gators
had dropped their last seven
matches to SEC opponents and
had been swept in their last two
conference series.

GATORS, from page 20
"With the system that they're
going to run, it's paramount that
they get a guy that fits that system,"
said Scout.corn recruiting analyst
Jamie Newberg. "I think Snead is a
good fit based on what I know so far
- very smart, can run, canthrow,
No. 2 rated quarterback in Texas."
Snead is excited about what he
will be able to accomplish in the
UF system, one that he is familiar
with from his experiences in high
school.
"We got a lot of our stuff in
our offense from Coach Meyer at
Utah," Snead said. "Knowing how
to run the things that Florida will
be running is a real plus. I like the
offense and I'm comfortable in it. I
think it's a great offense."
The Gators will likely look to
sign two quarterbacks for the 2006
class and are receiving interest from
some of the nation's top talent.

UF loses pair of assistant coaches
IANNINGS, from page 20
Things are different at Baylor.
Here, you can almost count the
attendance of most women's bas-
ketball games on one hand.
Over there in Waco, that's not
the case.
After the mess that was the
men's basketball team, which
included a murder and a coach
trying to cover other things up,
the nation was pretty down on
Baylor basketball.
But then came the women's
team, saving Baylor's name.
Sweet, sweet redemption. .
After Vanessa Hayden left the
Gators, Mosby became a big fish
in a small pond.
Now, she will be a small fish
in the big pond that is Baylor
women's basketball.
If she gets along with her new
team better, it'll be great for her.
And the Gators, although losing
a lot of talent, won't have an at-
titude problem next year.
Losing the best. player? It
might actually work out in this
case.

WOMEN'S BASKETBALL
Mosby heads to champion Baylor
0 THE JUNIOR WAS KICKED OFF THE
GATORS AFTER THE SEASON ENDED.
STAFF REPORT
The UF women's basketball team's emro-
tional baggage from last season will be leav-
ing town. Junior forward Bernice Mosby,
who was suspended from the team's last four
games of the season, will be transferring to
Baylor University.
Mosby reportedly fought a teammate in the
days leading to UF's matchup with Georgia on
Feb. 24, and sat out the first half of that game.
She then walked out on the team at halftime,
and UF lost that and its next three games, fin-
ishing the season 14-15.
The Gators' leader with 15.5 points and 8.6
rebounds last season, Mosby joins a Baylor
squad that finished 33-3 and won the National
Championship.
Baylor was in the basement of the Big
12 Conference only five years ago, but its
program offered more than Mosby's other
choices, South Florida or Virginia Tech.
"It's not a knock on fhe other programs,"
VMosby told the St. Petersburg Times. "USF has
a great program and Coach [Jose] Fernandez
has always stuck by me. But at this point, I just
felt it was the best opportunity, after meeting
with the coaches and players this week. And I
love all the fan support they have. They treat
the girls there like queens."
Mosby also said she will look for more play
as small forward at Baylor after sitting out a
season due to her transfer.
On March 23, Coach Carolyn Peck officially
Removed Mosby from the team, saying it was
in the best interest of the Gators and "the
hardest decision" she had to make as a coach.
Some UF players had expressed a concern

Snead early
UF commit
By BLAKE BONSACK
Alligator Writer
Assuming there's no early NFL departures
in the near future, UF football fans can rest as-
sured that the Gators will be led by rising ju-
nior and Heisman trophy hopeful Chris Leak
for the next two years. When Leak graduates,
however, there should be an intense competi-
tion to find the team's next signal caller.
A new name was added to the mix on
Friday.
Jevan Snead, a 6-foot-3, 205-pound quar-
terback out of Stephenville, Texas, publicly
committed to the Gators but cannot sign until
February.
"I think it's a good place for me to be. I like
everything about the University of Florida,"
Snead told Scout.com. '"I really like Coach
Meyer. He's a great guy. I've been following
Coach Meyer since he was at Utah. Ever since
last season I have kept track of him and how
he's doing. He's got a great record and he and
Coach Mullen have a great record for develop-
ing quarterbacks."
Snead will graduate from high school in
December and looks to join an already talented
and deep group of passers including juniors
Leak and Gavin Dickey, redshirt freshman
Cornelius Ingram and true freshman Josh
Portis.
As a junior, Snead completed 184 passes
for 3,025 yards, 28 touchdowns and nine in-
terceptions. Critical to Meyer's spread-option
offense, Snead also exhibited his ability to run
the ball, gaining 525 yards and 14 touchdowns
on 108 carries.

Gators, troubled former player both gain from suspension, transfer

thought it was a bad
idea. Who suspends the best
player on the team?
But the details came out and
now it looks like Carolyn Peck

said it was the hardest decision
she's had to make.
As hard as it was for her,-she
made the right decision.

on the Gators. It was reported
that she fought with a teammate.
She then reportedly walked
out on the team during halftime.
Now that's what I call a team
player. Not.
In hindsight, maybe this de-
cision shouldn't have been so
tough for Peck.
Although the Gators lost their
best player, they'll be more of a
team without her. They can move

Mosby will have to sit out
next season, something that may
be good for her at Baylor. She'll

Robertson. After that, she'll have
a nice senior year on a very suc-

TUESDAY, MAY 10, 2005 Committee further narrows provost search N OFFICIALS HOPE FOUR TO SIX FINALISTS WILL BE CHOSEN TODAY. By MIKE GIMIGNANI Alligator Staff Writer mgimignani@aIIigator.org The committee searching for UF's No. 2 administrator is expected to name a handful of finalists at its meeting today -just as it did three months ago. Doug Barrett, Provost Search Committee chairman, said Monday he hopes searchers will name four to six finalists at their meeting today from a list of 10 academics from around -the nation. The candidates who make the short list will be interviewed early next week. The committee started its meeting Monday with 12 semi-finalists, nine men and three women. However, candidates Frederick Steiner and Robert Freeman, both deans at the University of Texas at Austin, were placed on the "back burner," said Steve Orlando, a spokesman for UF. UF President Bernie Machen called off the first round of the search in February, criticizing the pool of finalists for not having the "breadth and depth needed for this important position." Machen invited two finalists from February's search, one of whom is UF's own College of Engineering Dean, Pramod Khargonekar, who is hanging in the race, but will not need to face the committee's questions a second time.

TUESDAY, MAY 10 2005 E ALLIGATOR, 5 Road sinkhole scare ending By CRYSTAL HENRY Alligator Writer Florida Department of Transportation officials said Monday that they expect repairs for the sinkhole that opened up under Southwest 34th Street 2 last week to be completed by Friday. 0. Spokeswoman Gina Busscher said the sinkhole M found last week in the southbound lane of 34th Street across from Maguire Village, was the cause of a pothole that would not stay filled. The pothole was 3 feet deep and 8 to 10 feet in diameter. After investigating engineers performed C. ground-penetrating radar tests, the sinkhole was Sixteen holes will soon be drilled down into the ground, and grout will be pumped into each cavity to repair the crevasse. Busscher estimated that it would cost approxi). mately $40,000 to repair the sinkhole through an outside contractor, which will be paid out of the state gas tax fund. E The DOT will then repave the road out of its own budget. Busscher said she did not know how E much those repairs would cost. The center lane was expected to be reopened at 7 p.m. Monday but would probably be closed again this morning. E She said traffic has been smooth other than the E morning and evening rush hours. The Gainesville Police Department traffic divi0 j sion could not be reached for comment concerning two accidents reported last week on Southwest 34th Street. One accident, which was reported Friday afternoon, involved Kenneth M. Clyatt. Although t,1he could not be reached for comment, his grandmother said he was rear-ended near the construction. There are no other recently reported sinkholes on Gainesville roads but the DOT is always "looking for tell-tale signs," such as potholes that won't Tm Casey All ga orStaff stay filled like this one or depressions in the Crewmen Paul Moody and Cleteon Thomas drill 35 feet Monday into pavement, like the sinkhole which interrupted the sinkhole that opened along Southwest 34th Street. Interstate 75 traffic in March, Busscher said. "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers"

6, ALLIGATOR S TUESDAY, MAY 10, 2005 ECd itorvial join the club' We need your opinions, your succulent opinions It's that lovely time again. Old Man Summer has called many of us away with the promise of a low-paying job, a "credit-paying" internship, or just lazy days. And our friend Graduation has called more of us to follow the dream of no more pencils, no more books and no more Gainesville in their looks. The time has come to bake the bun that has waited patiently in our oven these past few weeks, made of the sweet, soft dough of controversy. Or we can stop trying (and failing) to wax poetic and come right out with it: We need people with strong opinions to come forward. The Alligator needs columnists, and it needs letters to th~e editor. Of course we could live without them, but we think it's a lot fairer to you, the reader, to have all sides covered. Look to the bottom-left-hand side of the page, directly under this diatribe. See only two of us running things opinion-wise? There's no way we're the only ones who want to speak up this summer. To get involved, we'd love it if those so inclined could send us a 500-word column on current events,-which can include how bored everyone is right now. There are lots of ideas to choose from. For instance, UF administrators waited until just this boring time to look for a new provost, the second-most important person in the UF universe. The bar closing time is stuck at 2 a.m. There are no longer drunk bitches on Friday, at least not on the radio. Oh, and the United States is in the fourth year of its War on Terror; our country's Chief Justice is 80 years old; Teri Schiavo's gone; Pope John Paul II's gone; and Mr. Garrison is now (apparently) a woman. Strangest of all, that chick from "Nip/Tuck" is now (apparently) a man. Anger can be a plus here. But we digress.

If 500 words is too rich for the blood, a 150-word letter to the editor will fit the bill quite nicely. We also need more permanent people in our Rolodex, those who wouldn't mind weighing in with their comments twice a week, including once in a while donning the special (padded) headgear that says you, Opinionated Individual, are now a member of the Department of Darts and Laurels. A finely tuned machine to rage against might be the only thing that will get us through these dark, colorless times. Or we can just look forward to Summer B.

I* ~~E-I~ 6 Guest column Age a silly factor in egally speaking, allowing a 13-year-old Pinellas County girl to have an abortion last week wasn't a difficult decision indeed, Judge Alvarez. Roe v. Wade, contested as thecase remains, established the precedent for the right of any woman to end her pregnancy if she so chooses. That's any woman, not only those who meet special qualifications. Which is precisely what the Department of Children and Families, the girl's guardian, was asking in its lawsuit to prevent the girl from having an abortion. Its requested provision? That she be ruled too young to make such a decision. So let's review: She's old enough to conceive but not to abort. Now, I'm only a journalist, but that math seems funny even to me. That age somehow qualifies a person to shoulder certain responsibilities is absurd and arbitrary. So sweet is 16 that a teenager is rendered capable of driving a car without supervision, but up to the very last day of that minor's 17th year, the parents can be held responsible for any crime he or she commits. At 18, a legal adult can bedrafted to fight a war on the other side of the world, but not drink wine with dinner at a restaurant down the street. And yet, having had experience in turning 21, I can attest that there. was no turning intoa pumpkin or princess when the clock struck midnight, no magical epiphany or any great change at all. Other than not having to endure the hassle of getting into certain clubs and buying the alcohol I had been drinking for years before that. Despite my age, however, I also knew not to take drinks I didn't watch being poured or to drive under The views expressed here are not Reader response Today's question: Should "Drunk Bitch Friday"return to Rock 104's morning lineup? determining rights Eva Kis the influence. Because that's a Editorial Note book reasonable decision a person can Edioral Noatook make knowing the consequences ehiieolligotor.org of the alternatives that should be taught to them not when they're old enough, but when they encounter the situation. Perhaps most interestingly in this girl's case is that at hersame tender 13, the Jewish faith considers a boy to have become a man. That is the same age at which Christian children elect to receive confirmation, the ceremony where they choose to accept the tenets of their faith and become full members of their churches. Judge Alvarez, a Catholic, has been commended and condemned, with the Diocese of Palm Beach going as far as asking he be denied Holy Communion, for putting law above morality in his ruling. The law is supposed to be equitable and fair, which doesn't allow for the subjectivity that comes with "morality." Whose morality should be the standard, and how would that be any less arbitrary a boundary than age? This girl's case makes a bigger point as a tragic example of the changing nature of the world. Before being placed in foster care, she lived in a home for girls who had been neglected or abused, she by her own parents. -Kids having children of their own is a problem as they continue to reach puberty at younger ages, yet the Bush administration has been advocating abstinenceonly education in schools, a place children should be able to turn for reliable, real-world information. There is no good resolution in this case. But give people of any age the education and options to prevent such unfortunate events, and you give them the opportunity not to have to face making such wrenching decisions.

TUESDAY, MAY 10, 2005 0 ALLIGATOR, 7 Gu-je st c o lun Recruiters pray on infirmed to increase military enlistment Uncle Sam wants you -whether you're a mental patient, drug addict, high school dropout or felon. That's right; military enlistment is down, and recruiters are doing whatever it takes to fill their quotas, and I mean whatever it takes. Anyone is good enough to sign up, not just the few and the proud. Just imagine the combat operations when schizophrenics and pill-poppers are manning the front lines. The issue was brought to network television when CBS News featured a story May 2 about a 17-year-old student who recorded unethical recruiting behaviors. High school journalist David McSwane of Aruda, Colo., posed as a prospective Army recruit. He told recruiters he was a high school dropout and that he had no diploma. The Army recruiters told him to create a fake diploma from a non-existent school; they even told him the name of a fake school to use. McSwane bought a fake diploma for $200 and presented it to the recruiters. McSwane proceeded to tell the recruiters he had an addiction to marijuana he just couldn't kick. The recruiters had a solution: They instructed him to purchase a "detox" solution so he could pass the drug test. Gala Veenis McSwane recorded Ga .V i conversations between U-Wire himself and the two recruiters and had one of his friends videotape a recruiting sergeant driving McSwane to a store to buy the detox; thus, the recruiters were caught red-handed. The Army's own records document more than-320 "recruitment improprieties" last year alone -recruiters also say for every impropriety discovered there are at least two more undiscovered, according to the article. And that's after the Army's already relaxed age and education requirements and strengthened incentives such as enlistment bonuses. Recruiters have the power to let many things slide in order to keep people enlisting. Just imagine a person with mental illness being given a weapon. Or worse, climbing ranks and being in charge of other young people. Picture ground combat situations in which people with recurring physical problems are expected to perform the tasks of a perfectly healthy soldier. I don't know about you, but I don't feel safe with the picture of that military in my mind. Gaia Veenis is a columniistfor the Daily Aztec of San Diego State University. Guest column Supreme Court has already set standard of life in abortion A although the position occupied by John Kerry and other pro-choice politicians (opposed to abortion personally but believing it should not be subject to stringent government regulation) sounds measured and balanced, their position nonetheless leads to some gruesome scenarios. For example, I cite the "selective reduction" described in a July 12 New York Times Magazine article, "When One is Enough," where a woman expecting triplets decided to abort two of the three fetuses because it would compel her financially to abandon her Manhattan lifestyle, move to the suburbs, and go "shopping only at Costco and buy big jars of mayonnaise.". No kidding. David Brooks, 'the kind-of conservative columnist for the New York Times (imagine the print version of John McCain), recently examined the fountain from which such passion spouts. In his April 20 column, he ascribes the "cycle of viciousness and counter-viciousness" of the abortion debate, particularly in regard to judicial nominations, to Supreme Court Robert Schneider U-Wire Justice Harry Black mun and' his fellow justices, who in '1973 essentially invented a right to abortion in the Constitution. Brooks correctly notes that such a decision, which effectively stripped the discussion from legislative bodies and moved the abortion battleground to the courts, has "suppressed that democratic abortion debate the nation needs to have." The 1973 Supreme Court determined that in the first trimester of pregnancy, there was an absolute right to abortion; the state could regulate it in the second trimester but only to safeguard the woman's health; and in the third trimester, the state can ban or regulate abortion, as long as exceptions are made for the woman's health. So what happens if the viability of the fetus could'be obtained somewhere down the road, in the first trimester, where abortion is guaranteed? Sacha Zimmerman, writing in the The New Republic, makes the case that advances in medicine (such as ectogenesis, which is the "process by which a fetus gestates in an environment external to its mother") could eventually lead to a fetus being viable from conception. Zimmerman notes that "if and when that happens, the legal and philosophical premises underpinning Roe could be completely dismantled." It is evident that Blackmun, ostensibly acting with the best interests of the nation at heart, rendered one of the most confusing decisions in American history. He should have let the citizenry settle the debate itself. Robert Schneider is a columnist for the Daily Iowan.

8, ALLIGATOR TUESDAY, MAY 10, 2005 .09g 0 r0 *1S (I ~ ~ %% "Copyrighted Materia 1 1 ''' I Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" Despite continued airing, Lex and Terry future uncertain By DAVID COHEN Alligator Writer dcohen@aligator.org The saga between Cox Radio and WRUF is still resonating as UF's radio station continues to air the "Lex and Terry Morning Show" without the controversial "Drunk Bitch Friday" segment that recently came under fire from UF President Bernie Machen and the Federal Communications Commission for indecency. And with cancellation of the show still a possibility, about 60 WRUF student employees' salaries may dwindle, a station administrator said. About a month ago, all charges were dropped by the FCC, but Machen's stance on binge and underage drinking prohibited the airing of "Drunk Bitch Friday." Then, Peter Welpton, the director of syndication for the Lex and Terry Morning Radio Network, told the Alligator that the entire Lex and Terry show soon would leave WRUF. "At some point, we are going to be forced to hold the station in breach of contract and be forced to remove the show from the radio station," Welpton said. "We're talking about a matter of days. Not just Friday's segment; we are removing the show." That was on April 19; but now, nearly a month later, Lex and Terry still can be heard on WRUF weekday mornings. "The landscape has changed," said Larry Dankner, general manager for WRUF. Cox Radio allowed the college station to continue to run the show Monday through Friday with a "best of" on Friday, Dankner said. He added that this has been agreed upon for an indefinite period of time and that cancellation of the show could still happen. W e I p t o n could not be reached for further comment. However, despite the change, Dankner said the relationship Lex 'between the station and its syndicate is still intact. Lex and Terry's show is one of the top morning radio programs in the country, which helps "generate good ad revenue," Dankner said. But he added that if the show left, his station would survive. Dankner estimated about 60 students work for WRUF, and the time they spend experiencing practical application of their education would not change if the cash flow was reduced. "I would be looking at ways to reduce my expenses before I would reduce personnel," he said. WRUF has 14 full-time employees whose salaries are generated by the station, but Thomas Krynski, news director for WRUF, said he is not too worried. "I don't think full-time employees feel threatened by it," he said. However, he did not dismiss that students could be affected. "It's possible that if you can't pay students, you have to see if .they would be interested in volunteering," he said. But he added that WRUF is rare in this case. "If you look around at the country, most students are not getting paid to work at their college radio station." Dankner said that the university will not subsidize the radio station because it is an auxiliary arm of UF. W e r e expected to generate our jerry own revenue to keep the operations going," he said. "With the revenue we are generating, we are supporting the educational mission of the telecommunication students." Professors in the college would not be affected by any financial losses, Dankner said. ( Is I, '5 / Take a moment of peace for yourself, everyday.

Firm seeks diverse pool of finalists PROVOST, from page I through the system," Barrett said. "The goal, from Bernie's perspective, is to have no more than four total [final recommendations] -meaning he would prefer three, plus Pramod." "It's very easy in this search to make a pool of white male scientists." Jan Greenwood Greenwood & Associates consultant Khargonekar served as associate chair of the University of Michigan's Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from 1995 to 1997, at the same time Machen served as provost there. Several of the semifinalists have ties to UF, but only Khargonekar currently works at the university. Among the candidates under the committee's scope is one provost -Raymond Alden III of the University of Nevada at Las Vegas -one associate provost and eight deans. For the second probe, Machen reportedly outlined to search firm Greenwood & Associates that he did not want a medical doctor, and that diversity had to be a focus. "It's very easy in this search to make a pool of white male scientists," Jan Greenwood, a consultant for Greenwood & Associates said, adding that creating a diverse population requires her firm to think "broader and more creatively." Greenwood said 372 individuals contacted Or were contacted by the searchers as possible candidates. But even the current list of candidates could whittle down in the coming weeks. At least two of the 12 have received or will receive job offers from other external searches, Greenwood said. Interim Provost Joe Glover, who has served since December when former Provost David Colburn stepped down, has agreed to stay on until a replacement is found. UF officials have said the process needs to be completed as close to June 1 as possible. The chosen finalist will take the position on August 1. The committee will meet to decide the finalists at 8:30 a.m. in the Century A Room of the Hilton UF Conference Center.

18, ALLIGATOR H TUESDAY, MAY 10, 2005 BASEBALL Gators face South Florida after falling in rankings By TIM CASEY Alligator Writer tcasey@alligator.org After pre-season polls were released, the tenth-ranked UF baseball team was picked to finish in third place. More accurately, the Gators were predicted to end up as the third-best team in the Eastern Division of the Southeastern Conference. At the time, coach Pat McMahon and his players said they relished the underdog role and boldly said they would surprise their critics throughout the season. The Gators lived up to their word, reaching a No. 3-ranking on April 24. However, things have taken a decidedly different turn since then, with the team faltering in three consecutive series, including two key SEC weekends. UF returned home from Arkansas with an 11-10 victory on Sunday after dropping the first two games of the series. "They're battling their hearts out," McMahon said of the series. "We may not always win, but we'll give it our best." The Gators (32-15) fell to second place in the SEC with the two losses to No. 19 Arkansas. Despite the losses, the Gators won't have any time to lick their wounds. The team will play five games in the next six days. "They're battling their hearts out. We may not always win, but we'll give it our best." Pat McMahon UF baseball coach "Fatigue is a factor," McMahon said. "It's not so much physical though. Mental fatigue is sometimes more difficult." The Gators will host South Florida (27-25) tonight at McKethan Stadium and will then travel to Tampa on Wednesday for a rematch with the Bulls. Freshman lefty Stephen Locke (5-1, 3.00 ERA) will make his eighth career start for -the Gators, a decision McMahon made because of the importance of the late-season game. "These games all go towards posiseason play," McMahon said. "This game was scheduled three weeks ago to make up for games lost to rainouts." .Adam Davis (.320, 47 RBI) continues to swing a hot bat for the Gators. He led the team with a .500 (7-for-14) performance at Arkansas and is currently fifth in SEC games with a .390 average. Over his last 10 games, the second baseman leads the Gators in batting average (.415), hits (17), RBI (14), runs (12) and stolen bases (two). Wornen's golf finishes 7th, still hope for championship By NICK ZACCARDI Alligator Writer If there is something in the water at the University Golf Course, the UF women's golf team still hasn't found it. Maybe the Gators should ask Ohio State. No. 11 UF finished seventh as host of the NCAA East Regional at 886 (+46), 30 shots behind the tournament-winning Buckeyes. The -Gators' first-round effort of 7-over-par all but assured UF of a top-eight finish needed to advance to the NCAA Championships in Bend, Ore., on May 17-20. "Although this wasn't the finish we wanted, I'll take fiis finish," Coach Jill Briles-Hinton said. "I equate Regionals to QSchool [Qualifying School for LPGA]. You've got to get through it to play. Now they can just relax and go play golf [at the NCAA Championships]." While UF has placed outside of the top five in both tournaments at the University Golf Course in 2005, Ohio State adds the victory to its fourth place finish at the Gator Invitational in March. "This is a hard golf course," Briles-Hinton said. "It's a gem right here in the middle of Florida." After second and third rounds of 301 (+21) and Briles-Hinton 298 (+17), UF fell from second to seventh, though the Gators still advanced by 17 shots. Ohio State went wire-to-wire for the team win, while Anna Grzebien of Duke claimed the individual title by a single shot at 1-under. Sandra Gal led a freshmanladen UF contingent, earning a tie for tenth at 217 (+7). Gal played solid' golf during Saturday's final round, recording just two bogeys en -route to a 2over-par 72. "[The final round] was very steady. I hit a lot of greens, made some good up and downs," Gal said. "Unfortunately I missed a couple birdie putts. I didn't have one birdie. It was a little unlucky, but I feel good about my round." The German native fired rounds of 71 and 74 on Friday to match the best finish of her freshman campaign. "We've really been splitting it up on who has been the top gun," Briles-Hinton said. "Whitney was last [at the Southeastern Conference Championships], Sandra was this week, Tiffany's been there in the past and Andrea has led us all year long. "Hopefully in Nationals we can put it all together." 3 books for the price of 2* 2f Convenient Location UF Smathers Library (East) 1st floor Hours: Mon-Thurs 10am-3pm Fri 1 Oam-2pmr *exce Discover the libraries' best-kept little secret!

TUESDAY, MAY 10, 2005 E ALLIGATOR, 19 SOFTBALL un. 2 30 ; 3 orsw show 'asno mercy STAFF REPORT The UF softball team finished its regular season on a high note. Just a week after suffering through a seven-game losing streak, the Gators rebounded this weekend, completing a three-game sweep of Kentucky and taking their fifth consecutive victory. The No. 23 Gators (41-19, 18-12 Southeastern Conference) dominated the Wildcats (20-41, 4-25 SEC), lighting up the scoreboard for 32 runs on the weekend and allowing just four. The Gators struck early in game one of Saturday's doubleheader. First baseman Melissa Zick and designated player Mandy Schuerman began the first inning by drawing consecutive walks, and Kristen Butler drove them in with a three-nm homer. The Gators added to their lead in the top of the second as Lauren Roussell, Lacy Howard and Stacie Pestrack loaded the bases for Lindsey Cameron. Cameron, batting just one for eight since returning from her wrist injury, put the Gators up 7-1 with her second career grand slam. The Gators scored another run in the fifth and put the game away by the eight-run mercy rule in the sixth. UF pitcher Stacey Stevens struck out eight and improved to 23-11 in the 13-1 Gators victory. The Gators continued their offensive fireworks in game two of the doubleheader and reached the 40-win mark for the sixth time in their nine-year history. The Wildcats kept it close in game two until the fifth. Heading into the top of the inning tied 3-3, the Gators exploded for eight runs. Kentucky struggled defensively in the inning, committing consecutive errors, changing pitchers and going through the entire UF lineup before earning their first out. Once again, pitcher Stacey Stevens put the game away in the bottom of the sixth to give the Gators another mercy-rule win. The Gators completed the series on Sunday with an 8-0 shutout of the Wildcats. The Gators struck early with an RBI by designated player Mandy Schuerman. The game was concluded after a six-run fourth inning capped off with the winning run in the fifth. OVER THE BREAK: The Kentucky series was just one of the Gators' five since the official end of classes at UF. The weekend's wins were crucial as the Gators had dropped their last seven matches to SEC opponents and had been swept in their last two conference series. The Gators did enjoy success against in-state rival FSU over the break, defeating the i im uasey / migaTor smar The UF softball team, with SEC player of the week Mandy Schuerman, ended the season on a 5-game win streak.

UF loses pair of assistant coaches STAFF REPORT Gymnastics assistant coach Louis Robinson and women's track assistant coach Larry Judge have both resigned in the last couple of weeks. Robinson informed his team of his decision after the Gators finished seventh in the NCAA Championships on April 21. According to UF Sports Information, he is looking to remain in the college ranks. Judge, UF's former throws coach, resigned Friday, April 22. UF released a statement from Judge. "I certainly enjoyed my time here at the University of Florida," the statement reads. "There are a lot of fond memories. I think the championships, record setting meets and relationships I have established with those at the University of Florida are among them. More than anything I will miss coaching and teaching the student athletes." SOFTBALL: UF senior designated player and pitcher Mandy Schuerman was named the Southeastern Conference Player of the Week for her performance against Kentucky and Florida State. This is Schuerman's first Player of the Week honor of her career. Schuerman put in a complete performance for the Gators both from the plate and in the pitching circle. She is currently on a season-long five-game hit streak. Schuerman finished the week with a .615 batting average, a 1.000 slugging percentage and a .688 on-base percentage. She went 8for-13 with six RBI, three runs scored, two doubles and ahome run. Schuerman scored the game-winning run in the second game of the Florida State doubleheader and the first game of the Kentucky series. She also had game-winning hits in the second game of the Florida State series and the finale of the Kentucky series. Schuerman also earned two wins from the pitching circle this week, a 2-0 win over Florida State and an 11-3 win over Kentucky. BASEBALL: USA Baseball announced on Tuesday that UF sophomore catcher Brian Jeroloman was among the 13 collegiate players that have accepted invitations to participate in the 2005 USA Baseball National Team Trials, to be held June 27-30 in Robinson Raleigh, N.C. The USA Baseball National Team will be selected from a pool of 36 players, of which an additional 23 have yet to be determined. The official 20-man team roster will be announced on July 1. Jeroloman has started all 43 games for the fourth-ranked Gators (31-12) and is hitting .277 with 22 runs batted in, eight doubles and four homers. More impressively, he has thrown out 26 of the 52 runners attempting to steal against him to lead the Southeastern Conference. As a rookie in 2004, Jeroloman was named to the All-SEC Freshman Team and was also chosen to the league's All-Freshman list released by sebaseball.com when he batted .318 overall and established a Florida rookie record with 10 sacrifice bunts. MEN'S TENNIS: UF men's tennis coach Andy Jackson as well as senior Hamid Mirzadeh and freshman Greg Ouellette were honored by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association as the three were named Southeast regional award winners Monday. Jackson, was selected as a co-winner of the region's Wilson/ITA Coach of the Year along with Mississippi State's Sylvain Guichard. Mirzadeh was chosen as the region's ITA/Arthur Ashe Award for Leadership and Sportsmanship, while Ouellette was tabbed the S'utheast region's ITA Rookie of the Year. National winners will be announced the evening of May 25 in College Station, Texas. GYMNASTICS: UF's quest for a second consecutive berth in the NCAA Super Six team final was not reached April 21. in the NCAA Championships' second session of the team qualifying round. UF turned in a tL9l of 196.225 to take fourth in the session and out of the top three positions that advance to Friday's NCAA Super Six. After combining. the day's two sessions, UF finished seventh overall. Georgia was the top qualifying team in Session II with a total of 197.35. Two-time defending NCAA champion UCLA was second at 197.025 while Alabama took tlwinal qualifying spot at 197.00. Other team results from Session II include Iowa State (195.975) and Brigham Young (194.625). Snead hopes to be part of new system GATORS, from page 20 "With the system that they're going to run, it's paramount that they get a guy that fits that system," said Scout.com recruiting analyst Jamie Newberg. "I think Snead is a good fit based on what I know so far -very smart, can run, canthrow, No. 2 rated quarterback in Texas." Snead is excited about what he will be able to accomplish in the UF system, one that he is familiar with from his experiences in high school. "We got a lot of our stuff in our offense from Coach Meyer at Utah," Snead said. "Knowing how to run the things that Florida will be running is a real plus. I like the offense and I'm comfortable in it. I think it's a great offense." The Gators will likely look to sign two quarterbacks for the 2006 class and are receiving interest from some of the nation's top talent. Tim Tebow, a 6-foot-3, 225pound prospect from Nease High School in St. Augustine, Mitch Mustain, a 6-foot-3, 200-pound prospect out of Springdale, Ark., and Jarred Fayson, a 6-foot-2, 200' pound prospect from Hillsborough High in Tampa highlight the group of potential UP signers. IANNINGS, from page 20 Things are different at Baylor. Here, you can almost count the attendance of most women's basketball games on one hand. Over there in Waco, that's not the case. After the mess that was the men's basketball team, which included a murder and a coach trying to cover other things up, the nation was pretty down on Baylor basketball. But then came the women's team, saving Baylor's name. Sweet, sweet redemption. After Vanessa Hayden left the Gators, Mosby became a big fish in a small pond. Now, she will be a small fish in the big pond that is Baylor women's basketball. If she gets along with her new team better, it'll be great for her. And the Gators, although losing a lot of talent, won't have an attitude problem next year. Losing the best player? It might actually work out in this case.

TUESDAY, MAY 10, 2005 Mosby heads to champion Baylor 0 THE JUNIOR WAS KICKED OFF THE GATORS AFTER THE SEASON ENDED. STAFF REPORT The UF women's basketball team's eniotional baggage from last season will be leaving town. Junior forward Bernice Mosby, who was suspended from the team's last four games of the season, will be transferring to Baylor University. Mosby reportedly fought a teammate in the days leading to UF's matchup with Georgia on Feb. 24, and sat out the first half of that game. She then walked out on the team at halftime, and UF lost that and its next three games, finishing the season 14-15. The Gators' leader with 15.5 points and 8.6 rebounds last season, Mosby joins a Baylor squad that finished 33-3 and won the National Championship. Baylor was in the basement of the Big 12 Conference only five years ago, but its program offered more than Mosby's other choices, South Florida or Virginia Tech. "It's not a knock on fhe other programs," Mosby told the St. Petersburg Times. "USF has a great program and Coach [Jose] Fernandez has always stuck by me. But at this point, I just felt it was the best opportunity, after meeting with the coaches and players this week. And I love all the fan support they have. They treat the girls there like queens." Mosby also said she will look for more play as small forward at Baylor after sitting outa season due to her transfer. On March 23, Coach Carolyn Peck officially removed Mosby from the team, saying it was in the best interest of the Gators and "the hardest decision" she had to make as a coach. Some UF players had expressed a concern Matt Marriott/AlligatorStaff with Mosby being allowed back on the team After a suspension prematurely ended Bernice Mosby's season, the following the incidents, but it is not known if junior women's basketball forward said she will transfer to Baylor. that had an influence on Peck's decision. ALLIGATOR www.alligatorSports.org Gators, troubled former player both gain from suspension, transfer hen Bernice Mosby was first suspended, thought it was a bad idea. Who suspends the best player on the team? But the details came out and now it looks like Carolyn Peck knew what she was doing. She said it was the hardest decision she's had to make. As hard as it was for her,-she madt-he right decision. Mosby was becoming a cancer NBA Playoffs Indiana 81 Detrpft 96 MLB Houston 2 Florida 1 on the Gators. It was reported that she fought with a teammate. She then reportedly walked out on the team during halftime. Now that's what I call a team player. Not. In hindsight, maybe this decision shouldn't have been so tough for Peck. Although the Gators lost their best player, they'll be more of a team without her. They can move on together as a team after a poor season in which they lost in the first round of the Ian Fisher Women's Extra landings NIT. ifisher@asigator.org Not only will the Gators be better off without M.osby, but Mosby will be better off without her "teammates" and with her new team. Baylor is the reigning women's basketball national champion. Let me repeat. National Champions. If that's not an upgrade, I don't know what is. The Gators finished with a losing record of 14-15. Baylor won it all. "It's a great opportunity for me," Mosby told the St. Petersburg Times. "The program has everything I want to accomU5-13-66: UF pitcher Kelly Prior's school record of 30 consecutive scoreless innings by a pitcher comes to an end. Prior is also tied for the UF record of strikeouts in a nineinning game with 17. plish in my last year in college basketball." Ya think? Mosby will have to sit out next season, something that may be good for her at Baylor. She'll get a year to learn Baylor's system under Coach Kim MulkeyRobertson. After that, she'll have a nice senior year on a very successful team.

When Leak graduates, however, there should be an intense competition to find the team's next signal caller. A new name was added to the mix on Friday. .Jevan Snead, a 6-foot-3, 205-pound quarterback out of Stephenville, Texas, publicly committed to the Gators but cannot sign until February. "I think it's a good place for me to be. I like everything about the University of Florida," Snead told Scout.com. 'I really like Coach Meyer. He's a great guy. I've been following Coach Meyer since he was at Utah. Ever since last season I have kept track of him and how he's doing. He's got a great record and he and Coach Mullen have a great record for developing quarterbacks." Snead will graduate from high school in December and looks to join an already talented and deep group of passers including juniors Leak and Gavin Dickey, redshirt freshman Cornelius Ingram and true freshman Josh Portis. As a junior, Snead completed 184 passes for 3,025 yards, 28 touchdowns and nine interceptions. Critical to Meyer's spread-option offense, Snead also exhibited his ability to run the ball, gaining 525 yards and 14 touchdowns on 108 carries.
