UF hires public-relations firm


* FLETCHER MARTIN WILL
MAKE TWO TV COMMERCIALS
FOR UF's FOOTBALL GAMES.

By CASSIDY MILLS
Alligator Contributing Writer

UF has named Atlanta-based
Fletcher Martin as its marketing, com-
munications and public relations firm
this week.
The firm, led by UF alumnus Andy
Fletcher, was chosen from 17 firms that
were reviewed closely.
"Everyone in the agency business
has a dream client, and the University
of Florida has been mine," Fletcher
said in a press release.
Joe Hice, UF's associate vice
president of Public Relations and
Marketing, said the company's re-
gional success factored into its being
chosen.


"Fletcher Martin has a reputation
for being one of the most creative
shops in the Southeast and is strong in
strategic plannirnc "he ;aid. --
Fletcher's '..,tenmie t a-bouLLF and
the chemistry his team has with the
university also helped in making the
decision, Hice
UF said.
Administration The goal of
UF is to move
into the fop ranks of national public
research institutions, and Fletcher
Martin will help partly by improving
the university's presence in the nation-
al media, according to a press release.
One of the initial projects the firm
will undertake in the next six weeks in-
volves the creation of two TV commer-
cials for UF fo be aired during Florida's
NCAA football games, Hice said.
The commercials will appear on
ESPN, CBS, ABC, NBC and Sun Sports
Network.


Fletcher Martin also will create a
new print ad to be published in foot-
ball programs this season.
These- immediate projects are
part of a three-phase program set to
take place over the next three to five
y.eari. ati $500,000 for the first year.
The funding for the agency does not
come from students' tuition and in
no way takes away from academics,
Hice said.
"We really believe that UF is a
leader in our nation, and by telling
our story, we attract great students,
faculty and donations," Hice said.
Supported by UF President Bernie
Machen and the university's Board
of Trustees, the integrated market-
ing communications campaign is a
necessary element of the university's
institutional strategy, Hice said.
"We view the University of
Florida as an amazing asset to the
state, nation and world," Hice said.

She said her right-wing man
wanted to hold the joystick. He
said he just wanted to keep the
plane level.
Christopher Chase resigned
from his post as the Chief of Staff
for Student Body Vice President
Joyce Medina earlier this week.
Medina said it was difficult to
ask her old shopping buddy for
his resignation after numerous
disputes that occurred during
his Summer A tenure.
"We were friends," she said.
"That relationship was difficult
to carry over. I knew that the re-
lationship wasn't working out."
Chase said that after Medina
had called for his resignation she
set up a meeting with Student
Body President Joe Goldberg
to formulate a story about his
departure.
"We discussed his resigna-
tion," Medina said. "There was
no fabrication. We didn't have to
make a big deal about this."
Chase did not attend the
meeting because he found the
situation disrespectful.
Chase said Medina did not
want to look bad in his resigna-
tion letter.
"She was reading over the let--
ter and said 'I don't accept this,'
he said. "At the end of the meet-
ing, she said she would have to
fire me. I was appalled by that."
Goldberg said Medina told
him to rewrite it for good rea-
son.
"The things he wrote in that
resignation letter were not accu-
rate," Goldberg said.
Chase said he was just doing
his job.
"I was doing my best to make
sure the cabinet was efficient and
organized," he said. "I wasn't in
SG to make friends. Ijustwanted
to make a difference."
Chase said cabinet members
told him that it looked like he
was trying to shoo Medina out of


her spotlight as vice president.
"At the first cabinet meeting,
I did a lot of the talking," he said.
"[Medina]'s never been a mem-
ber of cabinet before. That's why
she brought me in."
Medina said one of her cabi-
net members wanted to resign
because of the stress Chase
placed on the member.
"They kind of felt over-
whelmed by him," she said.
Cabinet Chairperson Suzy
Lieberman, who worked closely
with Chase last year when she
was public relations cabinet di-
rector, echoed Medina.
"It was too. structured," she
said of Chase's managing style.
"It came on
really strong
to a lot of the
other cabinet
members. It
has been an
issue from
the start."
Chase However,
she said de-
spite Chase's "power trip" and
"very stressed" nature, she be-
lieves he had good intentions.
Chase said cabinet members
did not regularly show up to
meetings in years past.
"I told Joyce [that] we need
to be stricter this year and make
sure everyone is held account-
able for their work," he said.
"People from last year didn't like
these new stricter policies.".
Chase added that he did
most of Medina's legwork with
the cabinet.
"I did everything" he said. "I
would stay late nights working
with her. She wanted it to look like
she was doing work as well."
Chase said that because
he was working so hard he
asked for his own office just
like Student Body President Joe
Goldberg's Chief of Staff.
"I didn't take this job for
people to like me," he said. "I
took this job to get things done.

Reitz leader hired


By KIMBERLY GOUZ
Alligator Contributing Writer

The Reitz Union has a new
leading man after an extensive
national search concluded -
Tuesday.
Eddie Daniels Jr., who has
served as student union direc-
tor for nearly 20 years at various
institutions, was chosen from 48
applicants to serve as the Reitz's
new director.
"I feel like I'm coming into a
great team," Daniels said. "I'm
very excited about this opportu-
nity, and I'm anxious to get there,
to meet people and -to get things
started."
Although Daniels is enthusi-
astic about his position at UF, he
said it is still a little "premature"
to talk about any future plans for
the Reitz.
"I really look forward to
coming in and just learning
during my first few months at
the university," he said. "I don't
plan to make any decisions com-
ing in the door; decisions will be
made after a lot of information
gathering."
Daniels, who has held leader-
ship positions. in the Association
of Personnel Leaders, said a "key
to effective leadership is effective
communication," and that he
plans to get input from all the
stakeholders be it students,
faculty or staff.
Associate Vice President
for Student Affairs Mike Rollo
was present at one of Daniels'
interviews and was part of the
search committee that aided in


his hire.
"It was very clear to me that
he knows how to manage a
complex and comprehensive or-
ganization like the Reitz Union,"
he said. "I think that he will fit
in very well here and will be
an asset to the students at the
University of Florida."
The position of Reitz Union
director requires a master's de-
gree and at least seven years of
experience at a comparably sized
student union.
Daniels holds a master's de-
gree in
UF public
Administration affairs
with
a concentration in personal
management from Indiana
University-Perdue University,
and a bachelor's degree in zool-
ogy from Indiana University at
Bloomington.
He' served as union direc-
tor at the University of South
Carolina and the University of
Virginia, and is currently the di-
rector of campus activities at the
University of Connecticut.
Daniels, who will start in the
position Aug. 31, said although
he is still at his old institution
and can't say it too loudly, he is
"absolutely a Gator fan."
Fellow applicant Michael
Mironack was promoted instead
to director of operations for
the Reitz Union. Mironack has
served as associate director of
the Reitz Union since 2002 and
as the union's interim director
since February.


Students explore SG open house


By ALEJANDRA CANCINO
Alligator Contributing Writer

"Hell yeah, I want to be the
next SG president!"
That was one student's senti-
ment out of approximately 100
who traded through Student
Government offices Wednesday
afternoon to learn how to make
their mark in the student-run gov-
erning body.
From noon until 4 p.m., sena-
tors and officers of organizations
such as Accent, UF's speakers
bureau, were on hand to talk to


students looking to get involved
in school activities.
Student Body Vice President
Joyce Medina,
who orga-
nized the open
house, said the
main focus was
to welcome
freshmen and
Goldberg get students in-
volved in SG.
Medina said she got turned
down many times when she start-
ed her career in SG but kept trying
to get involved, rising through


. different positions and eventu-
ally obtaining the organization's
second-highest office.
Student Body President Joe
Goldberg, who started in SG dur-
ing his freshman year as a student
senator, said the open house was
an important event that let stu-
dents know there was a place for
them in SG.
"Look for something that inter-
ests you," Goldberg said. "If there
is nothing that interests you, you
can make your own."
The next open house is sched-
uled for Aug. 31.

Shands at UF will be designated Florida's seventh
Level I trauma center officially Friday, no longer ne-
cessitating the transport of certain patients to hospi-
tals as far as two hours away.
The designation means critically injured patients
can be treated in Gainesville instead of other Florida
hospitals, reducing the time between injury and
treatment for trauma victims in the local area and
improving their chances of survival.
"We have set ourselves at a higher standard of
care for the critically injured person," trauma pro-
gram manager Michele Ziglar said. "We're always
here for our patients."
Shands at UF began applying for Level I distinc-
tion in September 2003, when the hospital came
together with the UF College of Medicine and sent
a Letter of Commitment and Intent to the Florida
Department of Health, Ziglar said.
After Shands finished the initial application pro-
cess last year, the hospital began operating as a provi-
sional Level I trauma center in October.
"We were functioning just like other trauma cen-
ters, but we had to be monitored for six months,"
Ziglar said.
In early May, officials from the Department of


Health conducted a survey to find whether Shands
met the 19 standards required for designation as a
Level I center, Ziglar said.
The officials' criteria covered such areas as trauma
administration, staffing, equipment and quality im-
provement.
"All the resources for an effective center were
already here, which made it really nice, and we had
people like neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons
on our staff," Ziglar said.
Craig Davies, nurse manager of the Emergency
Department and ShandsCair, the hospital's in-flight
care unit, said his staff has undergone intensive train-
ing to earn the Level I distinction.
"You can see everything up here motor-vehicle
accidents, shootings, stabbings," Davies said. "We've
really expanded our capacity to do trauma."
With DOH's approval, Ziglar expects the hospital
to treat at least 1,400 "trauma-alert," -or severely in-
jured, patients within the next year.
"Before we started operating as Level I last
October, we were seeing probably 60 patients a
month, but after that it nearly doubled," she said.
Ziglar added that she is proud of her team's abil-
ity to treat patients needing the kind of care Shands
can now provide.
"If you run your system right, it has a ripple ef-
fect on your other services," she said. "If you can do
trauma well, you do everything else well too."

STUDENT GOVERNMENT

Applications for SG organizations now available


By DIANA MAZZELLA
Alligator Contributing Writer

Those aspiring to a career in
the music industry, movies or
public relations can look to Student
Government to get their start.
Applications for several SG or-
ganizations are now available for
unpaid positions ranging from ad-
ministrative assistant to vice chair.
SG Productions Chairman Joey
Van de Bogart said his organiza-
tion, which brings entertainment to
UF, is looking for applications for
directors, vice chairs and a comp-
troller. The comptroller is similar to
a treasurer but has more authority
over finances.


The directors will assist the vice
chairs, who will in turn arrange
co-sponsorships, promotions and
production of SGP events, Van de
Bogart said, adding that he expects
to get about 30 percent of his staff
from this Summer B recruitment.
"It's endless experience that
a person could get working with
SGP," he said.
He said members of the agency
could learn about artists, contracts,
ticketing; everything that goes into
making a show happen.
Applicants for vice chair should
have experience in SGP, but direc-
tors only need to want to work hard
and learn, he said.
Staff members are required to go


to biweekly meetings, which may
become weekly, he said. The time,
required for a director position is
about two to three hours a week.
"It's endless experience
that a person could get
working with SGP."
Joey Van de Bogart
SGP chairman

SGP applications are due to the
SG office on the third floor of the
Reitz Union by July 6 at 5 p.m.
I Accent, SG's speakers bureau, has
openings for treasurer, assistant trea-
surer, three directors, programming
coordinator, promotional coordina-


tor and an administrative assistant,
Chairman Evan Tyroler said.
His organization has brought
speakers such as Janet Reno and
Michael Moore to UF, he said.
Students would be selected only
for the Summer B session, though
they may apply again for the Fall
and Spring semesters, he said. He
estimated the amount of time re-
quired for the positions as between
five and 10 hours per week, depend-
ing on the position.
Tyroler also said experience is
not necessary to apply, just the will-
ingness to work.
Image, the agency that films
Student Senate meetings and other
SG events, is looking for crew to film.


on location and an events coordina-
tor, Director Nate Kramer said.
Applications are due. July 12 by
5p.m.
Two other organizations, Students
Taking Action Against Racism
and Acting Against Rape: Every
Student's Taskforce, are also accept-
ing applicants, but the agencies could
not be reached for comment.
STAAR is looking for nine direc-
tors and a treasurer, its application
stated. They are due Sept. 2.
ARREST promotes sexual-as-
sault awareness and campus safety.
According to an ARREST flier, appli-
cations will be accepted in the Fall.

third-floor Reitz Union offices.


UF student goes to compete in World Series of Poker


* COREY CHERESNICK QUALIFIED IN
A $25 ONLINE TOURNAMENT.

By LAURA RUDDY
Alligator Contributing Writer

Chris Moneymaker did it. UF student
Corey Cheresnick is going to try to do it, too.
Moneymaker took $40 in an online tourna-
ment and parlayed that into $2.5 million when
he won the World Series of Poker in 2003.
In order to qualify for the World Series of
Poker this year, Cheresnick said he first com-
peted in a World Poker Tour event called the
Bay 101 Shooting Stars of Poker.
Like Moneymaker, Cheresnick qualified by
winning an online tournament that-cost $25 to
participate in.


The Bay 101 is held annually in San Jose,
Calif. at the Bay 101 Casino. Despite having
only been around for .three years, the tourna-
ment's prize pool has almost tripled.
The Bay 101 began the week -of March
7 with 438 players competing. The tourna-
ment was broken down so that half of the
participants played Monday and the other
half played Tuesday. The winners went on
to play Wednesday. The final 36 competed
on Thursday, and the final six played on
Friday.
Cheresnick said that each day consisted of
approximately nine hours of poker.
"Ihad a bunch of family fly out to California
to see me play, as well as a few of my friends,"
Cheresnick said. "Their advice was to play my
best and not care what happens because I have
already done better than anyone expected."


Chereshick won fifth place in the Bay 101,
with earnings totaling $240,000.
Cheresnick, who is in his final year of a five-
year master's program in accounting, said he
only started playing poker in April 2004.
"Towards the end of the sum-
Student mer, I started to get real serious
Lfe and play pretty high stakes."
Cheresnick said. "The tourna-
ment I played in to win the seat
was just another tournament for me to play
in."
To compensate for his lack of experience,
Cheresnick said he will play online poker six
hours a day. He is currently ranked as the
47th best player in the world, according to
www.pocketfives.com.
"Playing with the big-time players was
great," Cheresnick said. "I am not conceited,


but I think I can hang with most of them. Of
course there were a few that were way better
than the rest."
Two of Cheresnick's opponents in the Bay
101 were Phil Ivey and Gus Hansen. Ivey won
the 2002 World Series of Poker Championship
and placed 10th in the 2003 World Series.
Hansen, on the other hand, has won $1.8 mil-
lion in tournaments and was inducted into the
Poker Walk of Fame in 2004.
"Gus Hansen and Phil Ivey were the
toughest players," Cheresnick said. "Phil, I
have played with a few times, and I can never
seem to get the best of him. Gus is very unpre-
dictable. I could not ever guess what his cards
were."
Cheresnick will be playing in the World
Series of Poker Main Event, which begins July
7. The tournament will air on ESPN.

To save what they felt was a "los-
ing battle" from being dismissed
altogether, Student Government
officials requested Monday that the
Gainesville City Commission put the
proposal for a 3 a.m. bar closing time
on hold.
SG Lobby Coordinator Thomas
Philpot said the commissioners
wanted to see changes in downtown
culture and services before they
would support a later closing time.
Extended Later Gator bus hours,
responsible-consumption marketing
in bars and a tow-and-go system
were among the commission's pre-
requisites.
Tow-and-go is an. arrangement
with local towing companies to offer
reduced fees to drunk bar patrons
who need their vehicles towed home.
Philpot said fees could be less than
$25, and several companies have em-'
braced the idea already.
Student Body President Joe
Goldberg stressed the priority of an
aggressive marketing campaign. He
suggested prints on bar napkins and
coasters that tell how many drinks it
takes for one to be legally intoxicated.


At Monday's meeting, SG offi-
cials asked the closing-time proposal
be tabled until Aug. 22 enough
time to implement the desired pro-
grams but early enough so that Fall
students wouldn't have to adjust to a
new downtown schedule.
The commission
denied the Aug. 22
date and put off
discussion of the
proposal indefi-
nitely.
Goldberg ex-
Philpot P pressed concern
that the com-
mission had difficulty separating
excessive and underage drinking
from the 3 a.m. bar closing time, the
purpose of which is to provide an
hour after last call for bar patrons
to sober up.
"There are commissioners on the
city commission that definitely do
not understand that this is a sepa-
rate issue," Goldberg said. "It's a
safety issue."
The closing time for area bars
and clubs is currently 2 a.m., which
was established by an .anti-rave
ordinance the City Commission
passed in 1999 to address late-night
partying and drug abuse.


VP claims lack of communication led to resignation of chief of staff


RESIGNATION from page 1

I don't think I've ever seen a cabinet run as ef-
ficiently as when I was there."
Medina did not make his request a reality.
"He felt that he wasn't getting the recogni-
tion," she said. "It was always an argument.
He was seeking more than people were will-
ing to give him."


Chase said he was distraught when Medina
asked for the password to his e-mail account.
"If you can't trust me, then what is the
point of'this?" he said he told Medina. "She
wanted to know everything I sent out. Why
am I even in this position if I can't even do my
job? I thought that trust was there, but appar-
ently it wasn't."
Medina said she asked for the information
because he was not communicating enough.
"It wasn't the point of trust," she said.


"He's not in charge of the cabinet. I am. It
wasn't working out."
Medina said her actions were legal.
But Chase said he thinks he could be a
more capable vice president than Medina.
"I think I was better at doing her job," he
said. "It sounds to me like she's very insecure
with the work she is doing."
Medina said she still is missing some of
Chase's files.


Chase said Medina yelled at him on speak-
erphone, and other SG officers heard the war-
ring words.
"I was constantly ridiculed by her," he said.
"You don't make people want to. help you if
you are yelling at them."
Medina-disagrees: "I absolutely did not yell
at him a lot."
But Medina said she has learned a lesson.
"Just like you don't lend your friends mon-
ey, you don't hire them to work under you."

Court ruling shouldn't

affect filesharing
T he Supreme Court made a very fair decision when it lim-
ited the scope of American filesharing, but don't think the
ruling will make much of a difference.
It's like bracing an umbrella against Niagara Falls.
The ruling says filesharing entities like Grokster may be li-
able for their users' actions, because they "actively encourage"
copyright infringement.
And they're right ever since the days of yore, when
Napster went unregulated and millions of songs could be
downloaded consequence-free, the purpose of these programs
has been blatant.
Piracy costs real money nearly $1 billion for the music
industry alone. We have no reason to doubt all the claims of loss.
by Big Media.
But who's going to stop now?
First, the Internet is too volatile a place to support regulation
with any teeth. The disjointed nature of many filesharing pro-
grams makes it hard to discourage users from jacking in once
in a while.
In fact, more than five million people used filesharing pro-
grams the day after the Court's ruling, which is just as many as
before the ruling, according to estimates from media-watchdog
groups.
.- Technology is at least as daunting. Microsoft releases service
packs to improve security on computers that run Windows.
Most of those updates are chopped up and circumvented well
before they are released.
Innovation should continue in the filesharing world no
matter how illegal the practice. Video files, for instance, have
become smaller, crisper and more secure than ever, especially
since studios started cracking down.
And remember that the Supreme Court only has authority
over organizations in the United States, while the Internet obvi-
ously is a worldwide phenomenon. The ruling does nothing for
content housed outside the country.
CD sales haven't fallen. Many sales records have been set
in the years since swapping files became common practice.
Losses, while tangible, may be overestimated, because they are
only estimates.
What we like the least, though, is the massive advertising cam-
paign run by Big Media to "persuade'" us to see them as the vic-
tims, in a move eerily similar to old tactics used by tobacco firms.
Just like cigarette makers telling us there's no proof smok-
ing kills hell, some ads said smoking was beneficial to health
the deluge of anti-sharing ads will make a few people angry,
and most apathetic, to the cause.
We've actually received a pre-written "guest column" from
an anti-sharing lobby group called Define the Line, asking us
to publicize the adventures of "Hackrat" and the thousands of
pirated CDs and movies in his possession. Guess this editorial
wasn't what they had in mind.
Big Media's perception of the average pirate teenage,
introverted and either oblivious or a willing party to a vast
underground conspiracy is a disgusting reminder of how far
influential industries can carry stereotypes.
There are 95-year-old great-grandparents who snag Ella
Fitzgerald bootlegs while their descendants pilfer hacked cop-
ies of Doom III. The temptation of free stuff draws individuals
of all sizes, shapes and colors, which should discourage groups
like Define the Line from typecasting its targets.
Which itself lends further credence to our theory that as long
as the Internet exists, filesharing will continue to grow.
We're not advocating the sharing of copyrighted materials.
But we don't think it's time yet to start the funeral procession.
Expect sharing to become easier, not harder, as the future
becomes reality.

Overhyped celebrity gossip distorts what really is important


COLLEGE STATION, Texas
When Andy Warhol made his fa-
mous 1968 quote, "In the future,
everyone will be world famous
for 15 minutes," he couldn't have imagined
how true his words would be.
Nowadays, it seems like everyone wants
to be the next big thing and have the whole
world know it.
Celebrity dish used to be fun. Now, it's just
annoying.
Today you can't turn on the TV without
hearing about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's
are-they or aren't-they relationship status or
Tom Cruise's recent engagement ad nauseam.
Entertainment specials, magazines and
channels all center on the larger-than-life
personas of -only a handful of the world's
population. Yet, the world just can't seem to,
get enough of it.
While some degree of celebrity fascination
seems normal for the American culture of to-
day, it must remember tabloids do not reflect
reality. Americans must be able to draw the line
between real-life fact and Hollywood fiction.
It's a curious cycle. What started as in-
nocent public curiosity became the demand


for celebrity gossip, which the entertainment
industry readily satisfied. Then, the cycle
started all over again, only stronger. Once the
tabloid snowball started rolling, there was no
stopping it.
So why do we care so much? For some,
keeping up on the news including famous.
faces is just a part of being an informed
citizen.
More than that, it's fun. Most people have
the common sense to know they will never
have the life of a celebrity, and that's fine. Just
observing the lives of the rich and famous is a
break from the daily grind.
It's vicarious, living the "What would it be
like?" fantasy that everyone's wondered about
at some point.
There has been- some interesting analysis
into why today's culture is so celebrity-ob-
sessed. As Carlin Flora of "Psychology Today"
writes, "Stars summon our most human yearn-
ings: to love, admire, copy and of course to
gossip and to jeer. It's only natural that we get
pulled into their gravitational field." It seems
logical that celebrity fascination is a reflection
of desires we sometimes can't express.
The desire for wealth or popularity strikes


Nicole Hoegg even the most "normal"
U-Wire of people. If we can't
personally experience
fame and fortune, then
those who really do should live it correctly for
us. When they don't, the public reacts with
either criticism or derision.
For instance, Tom Cruise jumped on
Oprah's couches to prove his love for new
fiancee, Katie Holmes. According to a recent
People online poll, though, 43 percent of re-
spondents said they were now less likely to
see his upcoming film, "War of the Worlds,"
because of his'behavior in recent weeks.
While this may seem unfair to some, Tom's
case has proven that today's moviegoer as-
similates both the onscreen and off-screen im-
age. According to New York Times columnist
Caryn James, we now have a new attitude
toward film actors: A movie can't just be. en-
tertainment anymore. The public now uses it
as evidence to prove something about these
people's personal lives, .and that assumption
may be entirely unfounded.
But such are the pitfalls of celebrity status.
The lifestyle of the instantly famous comes as a
package deal getting all the attention means


also being at the mercy of a prying press.
It's this double-edged sword of stardom
that can irritate the public or garner sympathy
for people whose lives really are dissected and
printed on-next week's US Weekly.
Today's technological environment further
exaggerates the celebrity-overdosed culture.
With the advent of the Internet, there's noth-
ing celebrities can hide that won't eventually
get around. Just ask Paris Hilton.
Even worse, photographs, interviews and
sound bites seem to be safely archived and
ready for use whenever they're needed. One
false step or careless quote could come back
to haunt celebs, and it's always difficult to live
down those moments.
So, for those who will probably never see
a real red carpet or interview with David
Letterman, we just have to keep this intrigu-
ing, fantasy world in perspective. Sure, getting
the latest scoop is light fun. But knowing when
Julia Roberts goes grocery shopping really
isn't necessary.
And hopefully, there will come a day when
we won't have to read all about it.

Divin g with the Devil
Rv RRFTE M


FCC student Joe Farmer came up gasping for air.
His arcing plunge from a wooden platform nailed
to the branch of an oak had taken his breath away. The
chilly spring water hadn't helped.
As he climbed a homemade ladder out of the wa-
ter, ripples from his splash still echoed off the slanted
stonefaced walls. Farmer heard the cheers of his on-
looking friends that verified he had indeed survived
and gleaned warming satisfaction from his 42-foot
dive.
It is a jump not everyone at the Devil's Hole is will-
ing to dare.
It is a jump some people shirk on a regular basis.
Because one has to be a little daring to even find this
picturesque sinkhole.
While normally the drive out to nowhere, the
trek through the forest and the 80-foot descent down.
woody, clay cliffs keep the crowds at Devil's Hole low,
sweltering summer heat and a building reputation re-
cently have packed this gully's collection of homemade
jumps, slides and swings to full capacity.
It turns out Devil's Hole is a lot less of a secret than
people thought.
James Masters, who
remembers ,: I;ng
Farmer's dive back in
1974, now owns the clos-
est home to Devil's Hole.
He says the sinkhole is
occupied 24 hours a day.
The sinkhole will be
even more packed dur-
ing the upcoming July 4

And while the sinkhole may be on private prop-
erty, according to Captain Steve Rose, assistant chief
of patrol in Putnam County, sinkhole owner Norman
Knight, who could not be reached for comment, ceased
any trespassing prevention when he purchased Devil's
Hole four years ago.
"In times past we'd done a pretty good job of keep-
ing people out," Rose says. "But since then it's become
very popular in the summer months."
The sinkhole is so public it is registered online at


several scuba diving sites as Devil's Sink but no one
who has ever been there calls it that. Besides, Masters
says Devil's Hole is a death trap for scuba divers. All
the good action happens in the first 15 feet.
Or maybe 20 feet, if you jump from really, really
high.
And people do.
With one jump's height comparable to an Olympic
diving platform, another towering above it and two

Black-Eyed Peas release only sounds like a sellout


T he Black Eyed Peas' newest al-
bum, "Monkey Business," has
the potential to be the party
album of the summer.
Although critical listeners might
say the group is the quintessence of
"selling out" to boost album sales,
perhaps those people are missing
the point.
The key word for this album is
fun, and whether or not they've
sold out, the group takes a logical
step from their last album the
mainstream hit "Elephunk" and
provide everything you would ex-
pect from an upbeat hip hop-pop act


on this release.
Every track has the potential to
become popular, but each also runs
the risk of getting excessive airplay
and driving you crazy.
As many hip-hop acts do, Black
Eyed Peas use cheeky "we're bet-
ter than you, and there's nothing
you can do about it" lyrics in songs
such as "Pump It" and "Like That,"
which tend to be overused and
mundane. And "My Humps" is the
second coming of Sir Mix-A-Lot's
ode to big butts, "Baby Got Back."
But the group gets away with
their less-than-stellar lyrics through


undeniably catchy beats, and a
reminder of how the "hook" got its
name.
A notable as-
pect of this album
is the caliber of
the featured art- .
ists, like Justin
Timberlake,
Talib Kweli, Jack
Johnson, James
Brown and Sting.
They contribute their di tino ti'.
sounds to the album in a way that
is unobtrusive to Black E\cd Peas'
sound.


"They Don't Want the Music"
with James Brown joins old school
with new school, and in "Union,"
Sting is featured,
his former hit
June "Englishman in
Capiello New York" un-
Playlist mistakable on the
theavenue@alligator.org track.
But "My
Style," featuring
Timberlake is a far cry from "Where
is the Love?" and is possibly the
least significant track on the album.
SE'. er, ore knows that sequels often
flop.


On the other hand, "Gone
Going" is a successful fusion of
* different genres, incorporating
Johnson's laid-back acousticguitar
that sends a strong message of being
weary of materialism.
Those who take,,this album too
seriously and criticize its musical
merit should listen to it the same
way the group handles the issue of
love in the already popular "Don't
Phunk With My Heart" lightly
And if you don't like to dance or
you're looking for an album that'll
change your life, don't monkey
around with "Monkey Business."

Since the summer heat began, Johnson

"That's why they call it Devil's Hole. It

AROUND GAINESVILLE

Survivor fights cancer with smoke-free jazz lounge


By MELISSA GARCIA
Alligator Contributing Writer

The smooth sounds of jazz
flowed through the low roar of the
crowd. Men and women clustered
together, chatting, laughing and
savoring an atmosphere unlike any
other in Gainesville.
TC's Smoke-free Jazz and Funk
Dance Lounge opened June 10 at
Steve's Cafe Americain at 12 W
University Ave., featuring live jazz
music, a funk band and dancing
without the usual haze of cigarette
smoke.
Terry Chester, president of Adbiz,
his own international advertising
company based in Gainesville, said
he decided to open the dub as the
only local entertainment option for
people who hate the smell and dan-
gers of cigarette smoke but are still
looking for a chance to "boogie."
As a cancer survivor, Chester, 54,
chose to collect a $15 cover charge
of which $5 benefited the Climb for
Cancer Foundation, a local nonprof-
it organization that raises money for


cancer research and programs for
cancer patients.
The night began with food,
drinks and socializing to the lively
jazz tunes of Chester's 25-year-old
son, Zac, on piano.
Zac's piano melodies were
later accompanied by the vocals of
Natalie Rella, a local jazz singer.
Approaching the microphone,
Rella welcomed the crowd and
said, "Raise your hands if you love
a smoke-free environment!"
The room filled with the raised
hands of Chester's friends and sup-
porters of the cancer foundation.
In addition to a night of fun fund-
raising, the event also celebrated the
return of Ron Farb, co-founder of the
Climb for Cancer Foundation, from
Mount Everest.
Farb, 59, said he plans to climb
the tallest mountain on every con-
tinent and has already completed
four of the seven. He has reached
the summits of Mount Kilimanjaro
in Tanzania, Mount McKinley
in Alaska, Mount Aconcagua in
Argentina and Mount Elbrus in
Russia..


With his wife Dianne, Farb used
his expeditions to create the founda-
tion to collect donations for cancer
research, he said.
"If I am going to go, then why
don't I do that to fight my enemy,
which is cancer," he said.
Farb said that over the past
year the foundation has "Th

Farb left for Mount Terry
Everest in March and ,


spent about 70 days trek-
king up and down the south
side of the mountain, he said. He
reached Camp Three at 24,000 feet
but said he was unable to reach the
summit due to inclement weather.
Farb returned home the weekend
before the lounge's opening, just in
time for the celebration.
He does not plan to return to
Everest, he said.
"Once is enough for me," Farb
said. "I'm proud of what I've ac-
complished."

Farb arrived at the lounge tired
and 22 pounds lighter but was very
happy to see so inany people come
to the event, he said.
When asked to- say a few words,
he thanked his supporters for their
donations and coming together for

hester band Beam.
resident The band kicked
off the dancing with
classic 'groove music such
as Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It

Gainesville ballroom dance
instructors Susan LeBron and Bill
DeFeo were first on the dance floor
and entertained the crowd with the
Hustle.
LeBron said she heard about the
lounge opening from a friend and
decided to come for the music, envi-
ronment and to support the cause.
"I would love to have this regu-


larly," she said.
Although most of the guests
were either friends of Chester or
supporters of the foundation, at
least 130 people attended and made
the night a success, Chester said.
Katy Kavanagh and her sister
Susan Adams, both Gainesville resi-
dents and friends of the Farbs, said
they try to contribute as much as
possible to the cancer foundation's
local charity base.
"I don't want to climb a moun-
tain, but I'll go to all the events,"
Kavanagh said.
Along with dancing and donat-
ing, the smoke-free environment
was emphasized throughout the
night.
Due to the surprising turn
out and positive guest feedback,
Chester said he definitely wants to
have another smoke-free jazz night
in the future. He presented a check
for $820 to the cancer foundation the
following day, he said.
"The first purpose of this is to
get the $5 for Climb for Cancer," he
said. "The second purpose is to have
a blast."


Compromise in relationships could mean settling for less than best


Last night a friend, who fittingly likes
Bonnie Tyler's song "Holding Out for
a Hero," challenged me with an idea I
found all too disturbing. He believed when
choosing a partner, eventually everyone settles
for less than what they really want.
While I am not some grand romantic, I do
believe in soulmates. I believe everyone can
find someone who not only makes him happy,
but also brings out his best.
Anyway, I began to challenge my friend's
statement asserting that even though no one
can be perfect, accepting someone's shortcom-
ings does not qualify as settling.
He agreed.
His belief dealt with the attitude of cou-


pling. Essentially, the pragmatic beats the
idealist as everyone develops a take-what-
you-can-get attitude.
At this point, I realize
I should have asked him, /
"Where have all the good
men gone?"
But he already went .
to bed..
Instead of trying to
think up more '80s power-ballad references, I
started thinking more about settling. The con-
cept, I realized, was pretty common, though
typically in disguise.
I first thought about the many teen roman-
tic comedies where the girl rejects the geeky


guy in hopes of having the football star. The
geek's persistence and good nature always
wins her over in the end though.
We always see these
movies as a great victory for
Mr.. Lube our big-hearted hero, but
Risqu6 Business perhaps the girl is just set-
theavenue@alligator.org ting. Now typically in the
movie, the football player
acts like a jerk, so the girl's
choice seems more sincere. But maybe that's
just a device so we don't pity our geek.
Then, I decided to stop drawing conclu-
sions about life from '80s teen dramas and
instead look to real people around me.
I thought the examples in which my friends


and I all agreed where a friend could do better
than his or her partner. In all the examples that
came to mind, the person demanded the im-
mediate relationship rather than waiting and
being, alone in the meantime. Of course, we all
call this desperation.
Finally, I asked my roommate, who has
been in a relationship with her boyfriend
for more than a year now. She did say that
"Holding Out for a Hero" was far too ideal-
istic a philosophy. However, she asserted all
relationships are fundamentally about com-
promise.
So perhaps we're not settling, but instead
the first compromise of any relationship is the
tacit compromise to be in the relationship.

Orchids grace butterfly exhibit


By RYAN WIERENGA
Alligator Contributing Writer

Exotic fluttering friends can now enjoy equally stun-
ning flowers.
The McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and
Biodiversity introduced 27-new orchid species into its
Butterfly Rainforest exhibit at the Florida Museum of
Natural History to create a more diverse environment
and encourage past visitors to return.
Alan Chin Lee, the vivarium manager, said the or-
chids were brought in to create feature areas throughout
the Butterfly Rainforest.
The featured areas are pockets of exotic plants that
create living displays to showcase the rainforest's di-
versity.
Lee said many people become desensitized to how
amazing the rainforest is about halfway through the
tour because they only concentrate on the butterflies.
The new orchids provide another stimulus that visitors
can focus on.
"We also want to offer something new for our return-
ing visitors," Lee said. "The orchids create a reason for
people to come back."
Jeff Hansen, a butterfly-rainforest horticulturalist,
said the new orchids offer a new attraction to the pub-
lic.
"Our visitors are usually butterfly enthusiasts or
plant enthusiasts," Hansen said. "Now we have some-
thing a little more exotic for all of them."
While the new orchids were more expensive than
other plants, the visitors they have attracted have al-
ready covered their cost, he said.
"Orchids are a type of flower that people really get
excited about," Hansen said. "There are orchid fanatics
out there."
These orchid enthusiasts are given a chance to see
flowers that aren't local, he said.
The 41 new orchids planted in June are made up of 27
different species ranging from familiar orchids that can-
be purchased at a local garden center to exotic species
from other continents.
Most of the orchids that were planted flower every
year for several weeks at a time. A few exceptions have a
two-year flowering cycle, Hansen said.
The orchids were placed on trees that were already
living in the'rainforest. The roots of the orchids even-


tually attach themselves directly to the host tree and
continue to grow.
The new orchids will not harm any of the existing
plants or butterflies currently in the rainforest. The flow-
ers chosen are ideal for Florida's climate and can easily
coexist with the rest of the miniature ecosystem, Hansen
said.
Lee said that future plans for the rainforest include
introducing butterfly species from Africa. Since the cen-
ter opened in August, it has not housed butterflies from
that continent.
The museum is open Monday through Saturday
from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Student tickets are $6.50.

Comic book flicks flake from too much


Some trends sweeping through
Hollywood, like adultery,
have always been around.
At the same time, some trends
are less well-known and down-
right annoying. One of the most
annoying trends in Hollywood
these days, and namely the past
two summers, is movies based on
comic books.
While I enjoy a good action
movie, I'm starting to get sick
of seeing semi-mutated super-
heroes jumping, flying, flip-
ping and twirling all over the
movie screen. From the Hulk to
Spiderman, characters from com-
ic-book pages are relentlessly be-
ing blasted onto the movie screen
summer after summer.


And, lucky for us, when all
the superheroes ever created
are used up, there are about 174
million other sequel possibilities
and spinoffs for movie studios to
recycle through and they don't
seem to be getting over it.
Starting with 1989's "Batman,"
the comic book-movie craze
snowballed to the catastrophic
fate we moviegoers currently
face. It seems season after season
and year after year, the American
public is plagued with one hero
after another. From 2000 to 2005
alone I counted 15 different mov-
ies based on comic books. I sadly
included 2004's "Catwoman,"
which was one of the worst mov-
ie of 2004, and "Garfield," easily


the runner-up in that category.
Bottom line is that for the past
five years, at least three mov-
ies based on comic books were
released per
year. Based on
sheer volume
alone, the only
thing this genre
doesn't beat is
the 11 movies
with Ben Stiller from 2000 to
2005. Who knows what kinds of
sheer chaos would have ensued
if we only had a movie based
on a comic book that starred Ben
Stiller? Not counting -his por-
trayal of Mr. Furious in "Mystery
Men," I haven't heard of Stiller
starring as any superhero. But I


am sure it's been talked about in
some major movie boardroom.
I wouldn't be opposed to
this type of movie if they were
as good as the
Melissa comic books.
Filipkowski Now, it is ex-
The PeI Lift- tremely un-cool
ir, ; ., ,, ,,, l,..r ,, for me to admit I
have read comic
books before
and actually enjoyed them, but
it's true.
The main flaw with most of
these movies is that they focus
too much on action and gore and
not enough on characters and
plot.
However, last year's
"Spiderman 2" shifted the trend


fighting
just slightly enough to show
the inner conflict between Peter
Parker and his alter-persona
Spiderman.
While movie actually stuck to
the comic book and was given
great reviews by critics and the
public alike. This year's "Batman
Begins," in theaters now, also fo-
cuses more on the character than
eny of the superhero movies,
including the original "Batman,"
and is receiving rave reviews
from critics across the country. If
Batman can come full circle and
get it right in 16 years, maybe by
the time I am 40, all of the' other
movies based on comic books can
get it right too.
We all can only hope.


Fourth of July options to please partiers, families alike


By HEATHER BERGER
Avenue Writer

Break out the red, white and blue
- Fourth of July could be the 'best excuse
to party this summer. While some choose
to declare independence by executing
personal fireworks displays, the risk of-
accidents could leave many seeing stars
and stripes.
But don't throw in your patriotism just
yet Gainesville will offer safe and enter-
taining options sure to please partiers and


families alike. Here is the best of Fourth of
July around town:

*' "Fanfares and Fireworks 2005"
Sponsored by UF, the City of Gainesville,
WUFT-TV/DT and WUFT/WJUF-FM,
will be a great opportunity for families
and individuals to picnic in the grass with
the entire community. Music spanning the
genres and decades will tickle your ears
- if the fireworks aren't too loud. The ac-
tivities will take place at UF's Flavet Field
on Sunday at 6 p.m.


Common Grounds barbeque
Common Grounds will host a Fourth
of July barbeque, but it won't be food that
attracts the regulars. The Draft, Death by
Stereo and The Beat Buttons will all play on
the eve of the actual holiday. Tickets, for the
night are $10.
Live 8 on MTV, VH1
If a night on the grass isn't your cup
of tea, stay home and watch Live 8, the
entertainment industry's plea to end
world poverty. The series of 10 concerts
span the globe, featuring artists like Bruce


Springstein, Dave. Matthews Band and
Will Smith. The United States installment
will be held in Philadelphia on July 2 from
12-8 p.m. The concert-will air on MTV and
VH1..
Apartment complex, parties
Check your local apartment complexes
for holiday pool parties and barbeques. To
avoid a surge of people at one complex,
you can search -for the festivities yourself.
Even if your complex isn't hosting one,
gather up some friends and let your free-
dom ring.

Novel asks question of faith


Philip Caputo's "Acts of Faith" is a novel you ap-
proach cautiously.
At almost 700 pages, his novel starts with a
crawl, poses more questions about morality than an
ethics professor and depicts a dark view of humani-
ty's inner nature.
If the above conditions don't scare you, grab this
book, go to your favorite reading spot and immerse
yourself into the lives of the aid workers, missionar-
ies, journalists, pilots and soldiers inr the war-torn
landscape of southern Sudan.
The story is told from the point of .
view of a multitude of characters. -.
They include a washed-up Kenyan
soccer star turned aid worker seeking ,. .
a more fulfilling life, an "ugly as sin"
Texan pilot who trades his cynicism
for love, an Arab warlord obsessed with cattle and
his runaway wife, a devout Christian woman from
Iowa blinded by her moral convictions, and an entre-
preneur who turns humanitarian aid into a profitable
business.
This book begins with the point that in Africa,
there is no difference between God and the devil.
Caputo shows that it is impossible to do good
without causing some harm.
Nothing in the novel is easy.
In order to save many lives, a few lives are sacri-


ficed. In order to get guns to an army, medical sup-
plies are short-changed.
War, and to some extent life, resembles a physics
lesson.
For every positive action, there is a negative, tragic
reaction.
Even the b._t-bLrterntioned characters. are forced
to compromise their bli fs. to do-' '. hat they think is
right. The author dcnmonstrat.es hol-. easy it is to jus-
tify actions driven by greed and jealousy under the
guise of humanitarian aid.
Jayme But mostly, "Acts of Faith"
Gough warns readers to recognize that
Off the Press everyone has the capacity to be
theavenue@alligator.org. both good and evil.
This book has everything.
There is romance, adventure,
well-developed characters and a powerful, under-
stated climax.
With the terse and journalistic style (Caputo won
the Pulitzer Prize for his reporting at The Chicago
Tribune) and the themes of hypocrisy and futility, the
novel reminds me of an Ernest Hemingway or Joseph
Conrad novel.
In Africa, there is no difference between God and
the devil.
But "Acts of Faith" makes us wonder if there is a
difference between God and the devil anywhere.


Photos capture the heat


SW EAT, from page 8

He says many of his
photos make fun of some-
thing because it's a part of
Nicaraguan culture.
"It's our thing, making
fun of people," he says. "
The pig-nosed photo
was included because he
was called pig, though he
says the connotation is
different in Spanish, since
his pre-kindergarten years
at home.
Baez hopes this exhibi-
tion will be an accurate,
chronological portrayal of
his development as a pho-
tographer.
"I want people to know
there's a photographer be-
hind the camera," he says.


Baez wants to do any-
thing as long as it combines
music and photography.
He says he looks for-
ward to being done with
these photos so he can start
on new ones.
Specifically, he wants to
take more pictures of bands
on the set and in action. But
he says he doesn't want to
do entirely candids.
What makes photog-
raphy unique from other
arts, Baez says, is that it is
not creating something, it's
actually deconstructing.
"With music, you start
with nothing," he says.

Kerron Clement earned a pair of
awards follow-
ing his winning
performance
at the 2005
USA Outdoor
Track and Field
S. Championships
,, -as. he was
Clement named the
USA Today.com
Olympic Sports Athlete of the
Week and USA Track & Field's
Athlete of the Week.
Clement ran a scorching time
of 47.24 seconds to win the 400
meter hurdles at the USA meet.
His time is the fastest in the
world in the last seven years,
the 11th fastest in the history of
the event and it makes him the
sixth-fastest 400m hurdler ever.
He earned the Visa Champion
award for posting the top male
performance of the meet and
will compete for the USA at the


2005 World Championships in
Helsinki, Finland, Aug. 6-14.
The honors add to the grow-
ing list for Clement as he swept
the U.S. Track & Field and Cross
Country Association's Athlete of
the Year awards for the indoor
and outdoor seasons.
He won his second straight
NCAA 400m hurdle title in 2005
in becoming the first athlete in
nearly 20 years to accomplish the
feat and just the sixth in NCAA
history.
His time of 47.56 was an in-
season collegiate record and
then the world's fastest time in
2005. He picked up three outdoor
All-America honors in 2005 after
also running on the second-place
4xl00m relay (38.54) and the
fourth-place 4x400m relay.
He capped his career with
10 All-America honors and is
ranked 13 times on UF's all-time
top 10 in five different outdoor
events.

SOFTBALL: UF softball coach Tim
Walton has named Jennifer Jaime
and Sondra Hall as his assistants.
Both Jaime and Hall served as as-
sistants under Walton at Wichita


State.
"We have a great opportunity.
to have our staff together this
quickly and to have all of us be
familiar with each other," Walton
said.
"That will make the transition
that much smoother for the staff
and the players
as well. I think
having a staff
that each one
of us. has been
to the College.
World Series
should give us
Walton some compo-
sure to know
what we are trying to accomplish
as a program."
Jaime, who coached with
Walton for all three seasons he
was at Wichita State, will work
with UF's pitchers.
Under Jaime, the Shockers
pitching staff set several school
records and has posted an earned
run average of under 2.00 the
past two seasons.
Their 1.46 ERA in 2004 was
the lowest in program history.
The pitching staff has struck out
more than 400 batters each of the


last two seasons, with one pitcher
recording over 200. In 20.05, the
Shockers top pitchers recorded
records of 20-8 and 22-8 and each
had a 1.52 record in 202.1 and
180.0 innings pitched.
Hall is no stranger to the
Southeastern Conference as she
played at South Carolina. She
played third base for the 1997
Gamecocks team that went to the
College World Series.
Prior to her year at Wichita
State, Hall. served as assistant
softball coach at Crescenta Valley
High School in California.
While at CVHS, Hall had
responsibilities as a hitting and
catching coach, duties in home-
game management and served as
director of camps and clinics.
Hall was also extensively in-
volved with fund raising projects
and community service programs
during her tenure at CVHS.
"Sondra is one of the hardest
working young coaches I have
seen," Walton said. "Not only does
she have the ability to teach, she
has the ability to learn. She is go-
ing to help everybody and be able
to learn and get better at the same
time."

'Golden Boy' Spurrier wins Heisman Award


By DICK DENNIS
November 23, 1966

"Every young boy dreams of
winning the Heisman trophy,"
Steve Spurrier said yesterday at a
mid-afternoon press conference in
the Athletic Department's lounge.
But. Spurrier, growing up in
Johnson City, Tenn., was not just
any young boy. Just one hour
earlier, Spurrier was called to the
office of UF President J. Wayne
Reitz.


"The telephone call sort of
gave it away," Spurrier dead-
panned. "Dr. Reitz received a
call from Richard Digan at 1 p.m.
I told, Dignan, the President of
the Heisman Trophy Committee
that I considered the honor the
highest any amateur athlete could
receive.
Spurrier pointed out that the
award also speaks well for his
teammates, the university, the
state, and Southern football as a
whole.


Photos courtesy of IUF Sports Information


The blond senior is 'only the
third gridder at a Southern school
to win the award in its 32-year
history.
"My first reaction was one of
joy," Spurrier commented. "From
reading the newspapers I knew
I had a slim lead, and this took
some of the shock out of the formal
announcement. I knew all along I
had a pretty good chance."
The All-American 'added that
he was surprised at the margin
of victory. Spurrier was named
the winner on 433 of 1,160 ballots,
picked up 150 second place votes
and 80 for third.
. Spurrier compiled a total of
1,679 points, to more than double
his nearest rival, Bob Griese of
Purdue. Griese totaled 816 votes.
Poise, coolness and improvisa-
tion, Spurrier's grid trademarks,
sparkled at the press conference,
and overshadowed his inherent
shyness.
The brightness of NBC cam-
era. lights glared directly into
Spurrier's eyes. Cameramen and
reporters edged close around
him. At first Spurrier seemed ill at
ease, a feeling something akin to
the butterflies football players get
before a game.
But then, Spurrier began to
relax, his. eyes smiled and he,
engaged in repartee with the
cameramen who insisted on time
consuming retakes. His dark
blue UF Blazer and orange knit
pleased the cameramen shooting
in color.
Spurrier revealed at the start of
the conference that.his voice was
already hoarse from talking to the
New York Sportswriters.
"Not because I had to talk
loud," Spurrier cautioned. "But it
was a matter of talking distinctly.
The New Yorkers couldn't under-
stand my southern drawl.
"My wife, (the former Jern
Starr from Ft. Lauderdale), is not
the type that gets overly upset or


excited.
"The atmosphere in our house
the last few days has not been
nervous or strained, and I went
to classes as usual this morning.
But I talked to Jerri a few minutes
ago, and I can tell you she is just
as happy about this as I am."
With just one regular season
game remaining, Spurrier ob-
served this award would not do
much to scare off Miami.
"You can't let up against a team
like Miami," Spurrier maintained.
"I'm going to have to play my
best, and won't have time to think
about the award. No, the award
won't upset me; I'll be ready for
Miami."
The Orange Bowl game, against
Georgia Tech, will be, according to
Spurrier, "a great opportunity for
the team to prove ourselves before
the. eyes of the country."
Spurrier's quick wit sparkled
when someone mentioned the
possibility the "Golden Orr"
might be drafted by the New York
Giants of the National Football
League.
"When I have a chance, I watch
the pros on Sunday afternoon,"
Spurrier began. "From what I've
seen, the Giants need more than a
quarterback."
Spurrier asserted he cannot be
approached by the pros until after
the Orange Bowl game, whether
officially or unofficially.
"I've already signed to play
in the Hula Bowl," Spurrier
said. "Jeri and I will fly out of
Miami right after the game for
Honolulu."


bEIL


Coach Ray Graves stated
Spurrier would fly to New York
to receive the Heisman trophy
on Dec. 1 from the downtown
Athletic Club. Graves, Reitz and
Gov. Haydon Burns were. also
invited for the occasion.
Holding up a copy of a local
paper showing Spurrier on the
first page, Graves said with awe,
"This is certainly a front page
story, and since the votes from
all over the country, Steve must
certainly be qualified in order to
win this high honor. It's not often
a sports story gets on the front
page." .
No, and it's not often an athlete
of Spurrier's caliber plays college
football, let alone for Ray Graves
and the Gators.


Editor's note: After leading the UF football team to unprecedent-
ed success in the 1990s, it's difficult to think of Steve Spurrier
as anything but the ol' ball coach. But for fans that witnessed
Gators football in the 1960s. Spurrier was a dominant quarter-
back that would win at any cost. So what better way to kick off

Receivers prepare for heavy burden in September


Editor's note: This is the first

While UF's passing game may
not have been Steve Spurrier-
esque in recent seasons, expect
Wide Receiver U to begin a full
slate of classes this fall.
The Gators receiving corps is
arguably the most talented and
deepest position at UF, and the
receivers hope to vastly improve
last year's numbers that still led
the Southeastern Conference in
yardage.
During spring practice, the
receivers played so well that
there were whispers of this group
being the best in the nation. First

year wide receivers coach Billy
Gonzales was quick to refute that
claim.
"My biggest concern is just
the need to develop toughness
and an understanding that in
this offense you better be tough
and you better be willing to lay it
on the line every time you don't
touch the ball," Gonzales said.
Junior Chad Jackson emerged
as a force on the field for the
Gators after showing glimpses
of big play ability last year. At
6-1, 204 pounds, Jackson is the
leading candidate for the coveted
H-Back role in Urban Meyer's
new offense.
"It feels great, everybody
looking at you and you got to
live up to your name," Jackson
said. "I just go out there and play
my game without getting a big
head."
In Utah's offense last year,
H-Back Paris Warren had 1,076
yards receiving and 157 yards
rushing for 14 total touchdowns

top in 2005.

Gators without a true veteran

senior Dallas Baker to step into
that role. For Baker, a big target

Lee drafted by Knicks in first round

By BRYAN APP
Alligator Staff Writer : 1'm ,,r,
bapp@alligator.org *B ff'-^WU ^'^^jHB


An assortment of boos rained down from the peanut
gallery at Madison Square Garden as the hometown
New York Knicks wrapped up the first round of the
NBA Draft Tuesday night.
SBut at Joe Buck's restaurant in St. Louis, the insults
fell upon deaf ears.
After learning of his No. 30 overall selection by the
Knicks, former UF forward David Lee was too preoc-
cupied with cheers to acknowledge the jeers.
"I couldn't hear," Lee said. "We were screaming so
much."
"I was able to accomplish my goal. And
I'm going into a situation that I think is
going to be tremendous."
David Lee
former UF forward

The 6-foot-9 big man, who watched the draft sur-
rounded by about 30 friends and family members in his
hometown, brushed aside the shocking fan response
and even a grimace from devout Knicks fan Spike Lee.
"I think, for whatever reason, they'll figure out what
kind of player I am," Lee said. "And I'm just really ex-
cited about that."
He had no room for disappointment or animosity.
As the last player selected in the first round, Lee se-
cured the final guaranteed three-year contract, putting
the brakes on a self-described "roller coaster ride" of a
night.
"I came into this draft tonight knowing that I had a
good chance of going somewhere between 20 and 30,"
Lee said. "But that was my goal, to go in the first round,
and they made me wait until the very last pick to get it.
So I was sweating by the end there.
"I was able to accomplish my goal. And I'm going
into a situation that I think is going to be tremendous."

UF freshmen arrive in Gainesville


By BLAKE BONSACK
Alligator Writer

Although two-a-day practices don't be-
gin for more than a month, the majority of
the new freshman football players began
classes Monday, signifying the start of a
hew football season.
However, not every player will be
making a classroom or on-the-field debut
anytime soon.
Brian Ellis, a three-star recruit from
Daytona Beach's Mainland High, did. not
meet university academic requirements
for enrollment and will instead have to at-
tend junior college. If Ellis can qualify after
two years, he will be allowed to enroll.
As a junior, Ellis helped lead Mainland


to a state championship before recording
27 catches for 350 yards and six touch-
downs as well as 10 tackles and four sacks
as a senior.
But defensive back Reggie Nelson, who
didn't qualify two years ago, is ready to
make his UF debut. Nelson, who originally
signed with the Gators in 2003, has spent
the past two years at Coffeyville Junior
College trying to qualify academically.
The former Palm Bay High School
teammate of UF players, Joe Cohen and
Mike Degory, Nelson, a five-star recruit
out of high school, made the JUCO All-
American team.
Offensive linemen Ronnie Wilson and
Eddie Haupt as well as quarterback Josh
Portis have been on campus since January
for early enrollment so that they could par-


ticipate in spring practices.

THREE PLAYERS COMMIT: As the fresh-.
man class of 2005 arrives in Gainesville,
Urban Meyer is al-
ready nabbing 2006
recruits.
Corey Hobbs, a
6-foot-5, 310-pound
defensive-line prospect
out of Oviedo, publicly
announced his commit-
Meyer ment. Hobbs had made
a decision three weeks
ago but kept it secret so that he could sur-
prise his dad on Father's Day.

Walsh, Peep


bust in draft
t could be the worst case of intelligence
gathering since a squinty-eyed Texas
governor took the White House.
Who had the ears of UF's former top-
scoring tandem of Matt Walsh and Anthony
Roberson leading up to Tuesday night's
NBA Draft?
Chris Grier, Roberson's former AAU
coach-turned SFX representative (interest-
ingly enough, the same sports agency that
represents the point guard)?
Jason Levien, Walsh's agent? By the way,
this is one name he may not want to include .
on his resume'.
Perhaps they were duped by corrupt
NBA scouts, who presented doctored re-
*ports in hopes of
persuading the duo
to participate in this
year underclassmenn
invasion, only to find
Weapons of Mass
Bryan App Disappointment.
App-etite Maybe the scouts
A e spoke Arabic (Peep
for Receptions and Walsh might
bapp@alligator.org want to brush up on
that, they could be
calling Istanbul home this time next year).
Or could it be that God just played a
cruel joke on the Southeastern Conference
(See: Kentucky freshman. center Randolph
Morris and junior guard Kelenna Azubuike, V
Arkansas sophomore guard Olu Famutimi
and Alabama junior forward Kennedy
Winston all undrafted).
Whatever the cause, Walsh and Roberson
must have realized they pissed away a
golden opportunity by the time the Boston
Celtics selected Louisiana-Lafayette point
guard Orien Greene, who transferred from
UF as a sophomore, with the 53rd overall
pick, or when Toronto chose the Slovenian
Sensation Uros Slokar like the bazillionth
Euro player of the second round with the
third to last pick.
Whatever the cause, the former Gators
greats were left at the Draft altar sneakers
laced with nowhere to go.
Now it's hard to imagine they couldn't
want to Lcome running back to the O'Dome.
But forget the opportunities the aban-
doned twosome could've had with a prom-
ising returning UF roster.
Sure, they'd miss David Lee's double-
double average. But Corey Brewer, Al
Horford and the rest of the Gators' stable
of freshmen would have-returned as sopho-

junior year, closed his collegiate
career with five double-doubles in
the Gators' final seven conference
games, earned All-SEC Tournament
honors as UF secured its first confer-
ence basketball title and provided a
lone bright spot with 20 points and
10 rebounds in the Gators' second-
rou;id NCAA Tournament loss to


Villanova..
But Lee also acknowledged that
his MVP-winning performance
at this month's pre-draft camp in
Chicago greatly influenced but
didn't guarantee his opening-
round selection.
"It definitely helped me, but
there were so many good players
in this draft that anything was pos-
sible," Lee said. "So I was just trying
to keep positive, but I was losing a


little bit of hope there toward the
end of the first
round."
Not joining
Lee, however, are
former UF team-
mates Matt Walsh
and Anthony
Roberson.
Lee After each of
UF's top scorers
hired agents last week, officially


ending their collegiate career, nei-
ther Walsh nor Roberson were se-
lected in the draft.
Adding insult to injury, the Los
Angeles Lakers selected former
Florida State shooting guard Von
Wafer with the ninth pick of the
second round (39th overall) and
the Boston -Celtics drafted former
Louisiana-Lafayette point guard
Orien Greene, who transferred
from UF as a sophomore, with the


23rd pick of the second round (53rd
overall).
Initially, Walsh said he would
only forgo his senior season if he
were a guaranteed first-round pick.
ESPN analyst Jay Bilas offered
his on-air opinion of Walsh's deci-
sion.
"I don't know who told Matt
Walsh he was going to be a first-
round pick," Bilas said. "But who-
ever told him that was an idiot."


Two more recruits commit for '06


ELIGIBILITY, from page 27

Markihe Anderson, a 5-foot-10, 175-
pound defensive-back prospect from
Fort Myers, also verbally committed.
Though relatively obscure to
most national and regional attention,
Anderson earned a scholarship of-
fer after impressing the UF coaching
staff with his performance at summer
camps earlier this month. Anderson
mostly played wide receiver through
the first two years of high school and
only recently converted to his new


position.
A Gators fan since childhood,
Anderson said he was thankful for the
opportunity to play for UF and commit-
ted immediately.
Hobbs and Anderson join four other
prospects who have already verbally
committed, including Fort Myers run-
ning back Chevon Walker, quarterback
Jevan Snead, offensive lineman Carl
Johnson and Jasper linebacker Dustin
Doe.
Players cannot officially sign until
Feb. 1 and are free to nullify oral com-
mitments until then.

again, on a depleted UK program.
Forget the experience of actually see-
ing the second weekend of an NCAA
Tourney.
And definitely forget the chance to im-
prove your 2006 NBA Draft stock.
Who needs to put up with that when
the NBDL is calling?
But really, no one can blame these guys
for their decision.
Who, besides about one-third of CLAS


students, wouldn't drop out if he or she
were guaranteed a pro hoops player's
three-year salary?
Don't blame them.
But where was Billy Donovan?.
Not to call him out specifically, but
Donovan has reiterated the importance
he places in providing reliable scouting
information to his potential prospects.
In his defense, perhaps he did.
Maybe the hype was just too exiting,
the salary too sexy and the intelligence
too stupid.
