Crash that killed UF student a hit-and-run


Fraternity brother 'would just lift everyone'


By KYLIE CRAIG
Alligator Writer
kcraig@alligator.org

The flag outside the Phi Delta
Theta Fraternity house hung at
half-mast Monday following the
death of fraternity brother and
UF sophomore Patrick Brett, 20,
in a hit-and-run car accident
Sunday.
Brett was driving with two UF
students and two University of
Central Florida students south-
bound on Interstate 75 after at-
tending the UF-Louisiana State
University football game.


At about 5:30 p.nr. a van
cut off Brett's 2003 Ford sport-
utility vehicle, according to a
Florida Highway Patrol acci-
dent report.
Brett swerved to avoid hitting
the van but then overcorrected,
causing the vehicle to flip. He
died at the scene. -
His passengers were not seri-
ously injured.
UF sophomore Jennifer
Ostrander, 20, was not wearing
her seatbelt and suffered broken
ribs, FHP spokesman Lt. Mike
Burroughs said. UF student
William "Bud" Hawkins, 21, and


the two UCF students suffered
minor cuts and bruises.
Drew Metzger, 20, and
Matthew LaFleur, 22, were in
good condition as of Monday
night, said Michael Taylor, presi-
dent of their UCF-chapter Sigma
Alpha Epsilon Fraternity.
The passengers told police
they thought it was a silver or
blue Nissan Quest that cut Brett
off, Burroughs said.
They said the Nissan stopped
a quarter of a mile south of the
accident only for a moment be-
fore driving away.
.Burroughs said the first aid


to arrive at the scene were a
high school health teacher, who
perfomed CPR on Brett, and a
vehicle carr ng doctors, who
performed CPR
as well.
Phi Delta
Theta President
Matt Zaltsberg
said Brett's
death has been
Brett tough for all
members of his
fraternity.
"Everyone wanted to be
around him. His laugh and
smile were almost infectious,"
Zaltsberg said. "We're trying to
take it a day at a time."


Brett joined the fraternity in
Fall 2004.
Chris Seber, one of Brett's
pledge brothers, said Brett was
well-liked by everyone.
- "You didn't have to know
him. All you had to do is look at
his smile," Seber said. "There's
so many times where everyone
around you is in a bad mood, and
if Pat was there ... he'd just lift
everyone up."
Florida Highway Patrol is
seeking any information regard-
ing the other vehicle involved in
the accident.
Anyone with information is
asked to call Lt. Burroughs at
386-758-0519.

Low pay drives


UF faculty away


By STEPHEN MAGRUDER
Alligator Writer
smagruder@alligator.org

UF isn't paying its educators enough to keep them from
going elsewhere, according to some faculty members and
graduate assistants.
Despite annual pay raises, some claim that UF's rates
aren't competitive with other universities' or jobs in the
private sector.
"A lot of departments are- under pressure to meet
the market if they're going to attract people," said. Jon
Hamilton, chairman of UF's Department of Economics in
the Warrington College of Business Administration.
Hamilton was referring to the market that includes teach-
ing positions at 6ther universities as well as job openings in
private companies something especially relevant to busi-
ness professors with a keen knowledge of the economy
As a result, business-administration faculty members
tend to earn more rmoney than other educators.
For the 2004-2005 school year, business administra-
tion faculty members earned an average salary of almost
$134,000, beating out faculty in pharmacy, engineering,
medicine and law, who respectively earned average salaries
ranging from $87,000 to $114,000.
The salary average for faculty members was $78,922.03.
UF's most recent raise boosted business faculty's salaries
about 4.6 percent, Hamilton said, but that raise did not solve
the problem.
"It may have kept up with inflation," he said. "What [ad-
ministrators] haven't done is kept up with the professor job
market, and so there's a lot of salary compression at UF."

Park set to improve downtown


* NOT ALL LOCALS ARE
HAPPY WITH THE PROJECT.

By ASHTON GROSZ
Alligator Writer

At the intersection of Depot
Avenue and Main Street, you can
see three 25-foot-high earthen
skyscrapers colored tan, gray and
black.
These stacks of soil signal the
first phase of the long-term East
Gainesville Depot Park Project,
which is intended to restore the
environment and spur economic
growth in the area.
But some doubt whether a park
can facilitate business.
Steve Brotherton has owned
land in East Gainesville since 1978,
and the park's construction now
backs up against his property. He
describes the south strip of Main
Street as "stagnant," where empty
buildings are a common sight.
As president of Continental
Imports of Gainesville, a special-
ized auto service center, Brotherton
said he doesn't think the project
will affect his business very much.
Matt Dub6, the projects coordi-
nator for Gainesville's Community
Redevelopment Agency, said
the project promotes sustainable
economic development by revi-
talizing the area and eliminating
negative influences on community
pride.
The project's key component
is its stormwater basin, an 11-acre


shallow pond where 80 acres of
the downtown area's contaminated
runoff water will drain to improve
the quality of water seeping into
Florida's aquifer.
"It [the storm water basin] just
moves stormwater capacity that
individual businesses would have
to use to the centralized location in
the park," Dub6 said.
Mark Brown, UF environmen-
tal engineering sciences professor,
explained that stormwater basins
Around improve the
Gainesville contents of the
aquifer by trap-
ping nutrients,
such as phosphorus and nitrogen,
attached to fall-out sediment in
still runoff water. The basin will be
lined with wetland vegetation that
feeds on the nutrients.
City Commissioner Craig
Lowe said the Depot Park Project
addresses both ecological and
economic responsibilities by help-
ing downtown businesses reduce
pollution.
"By providing for stormwater,"
he said, "we're allowing for eco-
nomic development by allowing
potential business developments
to utilize the Depot basin instead
of processing their stormwater
on-site."
Another concern Brotherton
voiced about the park project is that
businesses in Gainesville tradition-
ally do not infill, or tear down old
industrial warehouses and rebuild
their own. Rather, business owners


elect to find new land with less risk
of contamination while the ware-
houses fill a series of minor, lesser
uses until they almost fall apart.
In the long term, he said the new
park might increase the value of his
property, which hasn't changed for
almost 20 years, but' he's skeptical
that the area will transform into a
downtown extension.
"You gotta get people to build
on top of old industrial buildings
for that to happen," Brotherton
said. "That doesn't happen in
Gainesville."
According to the city of
Gainesville's official Web site, the
stormwater park will sit on the
former site of a coal gasification
plant. The soil's contaminants must
be extracted before soil remediation
can begin.
Dub6 has not heard of any pre-
vious stormwater basins built on
top of so-called brownfields.
He said Gainesville Regional
Utilities' gas customers would
fund the cleanup as part of their
gas service bills.
Yolanta Jonynas, project licenser
for GRU, said soil remediation
would cost gas-utility customers a
total of $11.2 million over 30 years
as a percentage of their bills.
The park's design summary
includes a skatepark, a* children's
play area, more than one mile
of boardwalks and pathways,
a sculpture garden, pedestrian
lighting and a restored historic
train depot.


jen nUe.ley / M ll Uiur
The City Commission hopes parks will help revitalize East Gainesville.

STUDENT LIFE

Med trips reach out to needy


Two socks a-skating
Skeet Surrency, a UF sophomore, crochets with the Hook and
Needle Gang, a group that meets every Monday from 6:30 to
8:30 p.m. at the Civic Media Center.


By RESHELLE SMITH
Alligator Contributing Writer

While many students sun-
bathe on beaches during-Spring
Break, nearly 100 UF health
science students will travel to
underprivileged areas of Latin
America to provide medical
care.
Students from different
health-related disciplines divide
up into five groups to travel to
the Dominican Republic, the
Haiti-Dominican Republic bor-
der, Mexico and Ecuador. Every
group is accompanied by twoor
three UF faculty doctors.
Each of the five trips costs
about $20,000, and about half
of the funding is dependent on
donations.
Fundraising for the trips has
already begun, but gathering do-
nations has been more difficult
than usual this year.
Donations for Hurricane
Katrina victims have sometimes
taken priority over donations
to help the students fund their
trips, said Jeff Janus, a second-
year medical student and a trip
leader for Project Heal, a medical
mission trip to Ecuador.
"We understand that people
want to take care of their own,
but in some of these countries,
it's like Katrina 24/7," he said.
Each group will spend five
days treating patients, many of


whom would otherwise receive
no healthcare at all.
Kuon Lo, a second-year medi-
cal student, became a trip leader
for Project Haiti after making the
trip last Spring.
He said the lack of infrastruc-
ture in Haiti forces its people
to struggle with afflictions that
would never be allowed to prog-
ress in the United States.
"I can't see my education
being complete without
this."
Kuon Lo
UF medical student

"We see tumors the size of
basketballs; we see fungal and
bacterial infections progressed to
really advanced stages," he said.
"It's really amazing on an intel-
lectual level and. appalling on a
socioeconomic level how some-
thing so simple that would be
taken care of immediately in the
U.S. progresses to such an unbe-
lievable stage in these people."
The sometimes-grotesque ef-
fects of diseases leave an impres-
sion, Lo said.
"I can't see my education be-
ing complete without this," he
said.
Lo added that some Haitians
walked for two hours to reach
the students because they offered
the nearest medical attention.-


In the Mexican state of Yucatan
- where the healthcare system is
much better students faced
the challenge of making diagno-
ses without many of the modem
tests regularly performed in
American hospitals, said Maahir
Haque, a second-year medical
student and leader of Project
Yucatan.
On the Haiti-Dominican
Republic border, the medical
students and physicians would
see 100 to 150 patients each day,
Lo said.
In Ecuador, they would see
200 to 300 people per day, Janus
said.
For some advanced cases that
the students could not treat, they
would give the patients money
and refer them to a hospital, Lo
said.
But offering good primary
care is a great help to those who
would otherwise have virtually
no medical care.
The groups focus on preven-
tative medicine and education
by giving prenatal vitamins to
pregnant women and providing
basic necessities, such as tooth-
brushes and toothpaste.
"It's a little effort for us to
go, but it helps them so much,"
Janus said.
Those who wish to help
or donate can contact Lo at
kuonlo@ufl.edu or Janus at
jjanus@ufl.edu,

Study: UF must raise wages to keep teachers


Student hosts rapper


By BOBBY KEITH
Alligator Contributing Writer
Kanye West wasn't the only
big-name rapper to perform in
Gainesville last week, but this time
it was personal.
Trick Daddy performed a concert
for invite-only fans at a packed club
XS on Saturday night paid for by UF
student Kayte Susse, who rented out
XS for 500 guests to celebrate her
21st birthday.
While Susse wouldn't comment
on the price of her party, she said
booking someone like Trick Daddy
is "not cheap." .
The artist requested Grey Goose
vodka and Hennessey while at the
dub, said event coordinator Olivia
Ormos.
A line stretched in front of XS and


down University Avenue as bounc-
ers ensured the anxious fans were
on the list.
Trick Daddy arrived surrounded
by security guards. at around mid-
night, wearing a
SFlorida Marlins
cap and a gold
e necklace with a
sparkling 305, the
area code of his
native Miami.
Trick Daddy
Trick Daddy sang about six of
his songs, includ-
ing hits "Shut Up," "Sugar" and
"I'm a Thug."
The show lasted 25 minutes,
about what he was contracted to
play, Ormos said.
Susse said she was excited to
share her birthday with the star.
"Trick is my boy," she said.


FACULTY, from page 1
When salaries become compressed, new pro-
fessors start earning nearly as much as returning
professors, which can cause conflict about ad-
equate pay for their skills and experience.
If money isn't available to keep UP salaries in
line with national averages, it may drive faculty
members to take jobs at better-paying private uni-
versities or at companies in their field of expertise.
"It's a problem in any institution that to some
extent has a fairly rigid salary structure," he said.
A 2004 UF-sponsored study on faculty com-
pensation supported the claims of some em-
ployees. It stated that UF must increase its wages
to remain competitive in hiring and retaining
professors.
The study also offered suggestions on develop-.
ing UF into a Top 10 public research institution.
The study showed that ,UF salary aver-
ages trailed behind those of the Association of
American Universities as well as Minnesota and
Ohio State universities, two institutions similar in
size and structure to UF.
Associate Provost Joe Glover could not be
reached for comment.
Better pay at other universities could tempt
more than just UF's top professors.


Todd Reynolds, co-president of UF's Graduate
Assistants United, said the same thing is happen-
ing to members of his organization.
"They're losing graduate students because
we're not competitive," Reynolds said.
Graduate assistants, like faculty members, re-
ceive a yearly raise. Reynolds said they were able
to lobby for a 3.6 percent raise this year.
Salaries for graduate assistants are based
on 9- and 12-month schedules, as well as what
are known as full-time
U F equivalencies, about 40
Administration hours of work per week.
The average gradu-
ate assistant working 20 hours a week for nine
months will make a minimum of $7,665, or about
$393 every two weeks.
Stipends provided -by the university cover
the cost of tuition for graduate assistants, but
Reynolds said they are not enough.
"Our stipends are among the lowest in the
country," he said. "I can't pay my rent with my
tuition waiver."
* Graduate assistants are leaving to the
University of Georgia, which Reynolds said offers
better pay and benefits.
"If you're good at teaching, you'll pick what
place pays you better," he said. "We're not going
to be competitive until we offer better packages."

dangerous precedent
A choice has been made, and students will soon start
to see the money they didn't know they donated in
action.
Since January, we've all been paying an extra quarter-cent
sales tax to fund a new healthcare program called Community
Health Offering Innovative Care and Educational Services.
The Choices program's kickoff was Saturday.
Doesn't ring a bell? That's because you probably didn't
vote for or against the initiative when it appeared in the
August 2004 election.
Students make up almost half of Gainesville, yet we never
go to the polls. And sometimes, the issues considered actually
concern us.
In the case of Choices, we're paying an estimated $15 to $20
extra a year for a service for which most students don't qualify.
The program's mission is to provide limited primary
healthcare to uninsured workers aged 18 to 64. Those
residents must work full-time and have a certain income
level. Those who are covered under Medicare, Medicaid and
Veterans Affairs are not eligible, nor are those whose jobs of-
fer insurance, even if they must pay for that benefit.
Basically, Choices is for the minority that slips through the
cracks of government and private healthcare.
And the government has lots of cracks. The program is an
indicator of the insufficiency of government healthcare.
But it also marks a dangerous precedent'of local govern-
ments taking up the slack.
Students are the consumer majority in Gainesville and
are a large force in Alachua County. Many don't have
healthcare. Many work, but can't work full time because
of classes. Many forego the option of university healthcare
because the price is above their budgets, and the plan is
mostly useless.
Choices does not help them.
So if students put in the bulk of money for an Alachua
County minority, then Gainesville residents can throw in a
few cents to pay for students' missing healthcare.
We'll admit there are many privileged students of
Gainesville. Their parents pay for their tuition, their cars,
their shopping and their nice.apartments.
But remember that this is a public university, and there are
plenty of students in need and with families.
Why aren't residents helping them with a tax?
If every community were to try to fill the holes of state and
federal government with individual initiatives like Choices,
there would be no motivation to fix the system.
And the system must be fixed. If people are living in pov-
erty and are not covered by an existing healthcare program,
that's a serious problem. We can't just whisk it away by
implementing a seven-year program based on taking money
from the poor and giving it to the poor.
Once again, local government is using students for the
benefit of a resident minority. But at the same time they
help the community, students must also deal with different
levels of prejudices that show up from property leases to
bar laws.
Choices, which was passed by a small majority last year,
is just one example how students can be exploited because of
their neglect of local affairs.
Students have become the food that Gainesville feasts on,
they must vote or give up their rights as equal citizens.

Column

Miers' pastreveals lack of experience


t's been two weeks since President Bush nominated
Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court, and despite ef-
forts by various news organizations to unearth some
semblance of a legal record, her paper trail is about as
long as a stray piece of toilet paper on the bottom of
someone's shoe.
I've-tried to withhold judgment until the confirma-
tion hearings, but a look into Miers' past makes waiting
unnecessary.
It would be incredibly surprising if Miers exhibited
even a fraction of the constitutional knowledge that
newly appointed Chief Justice John Roberts possesses
in the tip of his pinky finger.
President Bush contends that Miers has "real-world
experience.'" So does every other Joe Schmo.
Whereas Chief Justice Roberts argued 39 cases before
the Supreme Court, Miers has argued none.
The problem isn't so much that she's never been a
judge neither were many justices before her but
that she has no experience in constitutional law.
Miers was never a law professor like William
Douglas.
She never legislated in Congress like 27 other justices
without judicial experience had.
And she was never a leading appellate lawyer like
John Roberts.
The consistency of her constitutional knowledge is
about as thick as a piece of one-ply.
As usual, President Bush has been blinded by loyalty.
Miers has served him as his personal attorney in Texas,
head of the Texas Lottery Commission, White House
staff secretary and White House counsel.
As conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer


put it, "If Harriet Miers were not
a crony of the president of the
United States, her nomination
to the Supreme Court would be
a joke, as it would have occurred
to no one else to nominate her."
Aaron Blye Something along the way
Blye's Eyes might prove all the naysayers
letters@alligator.org wrong.
Bur it's highly unlikely, as in-
dicated by the records released Oct. 10 of Miers' term as
chairwoman of the Texas Lottery Commission.
"You are the best governor ever deserving of great
respect!" Miers gushed in a belated birthday card to
George W. Bush in 1997. On the front of the card was a
cute little puppy.
Later that year, Miers wrote Bush a note saying she
hoped his twin daughters, Jenna and Barbara, recognize
that they have "cool" parents.
Honestly, I don't think I could make this up even if
I tried.
Conservatives are eating Miers alive, and liberals
are following the wise words of Napoleon Bonaparte
- "Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a
mistake."
But I have come up with a solution that serves ev-
eryone.
Miers seems to have such superb card-writing skills;
instead of making her a lifetime appointee to the high-
est court in the land, why not appoint her lifetime CEO
of Hallmark instead?

UF reactor


is secure
Must write a response to some
of the most irresponsible jour-
nalism I have seen in a' long
time. ABC's "investigation" into
"gaping security lapses" at uni-
versity nuclear research reactors is
nothing short of a hatchet job that
shamelessly alarms the public.
These Carnegie Fellows who
did the "investigation" may be
distinguished journalism stu-
dents, but that does not mean
their findings are credible or well-
researched.
They say they were allowed to
drive a truck within 50 feet of a
campus reactor building. They do
not, however, bother-to find out
if the reactor is vulnerable to an
explosive attack from an outside
vehicle.
Christian Acosta ABC even
Speaking Out writes in
its own
article that the MIT reactor has
been studied and shown to with-
stand a large truck bomb.
The UF reactor, for example,
is underneath 50 tons of concrete
and sits inside a multi-story build-
ing.
. If anyone decided to explode a
truck bomb on campus, the least
dangerous place for it to explode
would be outside the reactor
building.
ABC's "expert," Graham T.
Allison, is a political scientist who
has written nothing but negative
articles on nuclear power. Just
looking at his history of publica-
tions, I would venture to say he
is not an unbiased source of in-
formation.
His statement, "highly en-
riched uranium that's vulnerable
is an unacceptable threat to me,"
may be a responsible position, but
it is irresponsibly applied in this-
report.
He never explains how the
nuclear material is vulnerable
when it is inside the reactor fuel
bundles, placed inside a pit, cov-
ered by 50 tons of concrete and
inside a large building. He said,
"explosive material plus radioac--
tive material equals dirty bomb."
I say that explosive rhetoric
plus ignorance equals shameless-
ly lying to the American public.
I am deeply saddened that ABC
would release such a poor piece of
reporting. The truth is that where
there exists an economic agenda,
there also exists a bias. -
I am not saying we should
disregard reactor safety, nor am I
saying that constant oversight is
a bad thing. What I am saying is
that the type of journalism ABC
seems to support is self-motivat-
ed, poorly researched and does
nothing but alarm people without
just cause.
Christian Acosta is a nuclear engi-
neering graduate student.

Some players have yet to buy into Meyer's system


FOOTBALL, from page 15

the game, but one of his players had
another explanation as to why the
Gators are making mental mistakes
and playing losing football.
"We're trying to build a team right
now and we have a couple of people
on the boat but not everybody," junior
defensive tackle Marcus Thomas.
"Once we've got everybody it's going
to be something special."
It's more than halfway into the


season, and the Gators are still hav-
ing the same problems they had
a year ago when it comes to team
leadership.
Thomas blamed himself and other
leaders on the team for not forcing
some of the less vocal players to get it
together mentally.
"It's frustrating because it's partly
me to blame. I should be in their
ears," Thomas said. "I've got people
back in there trying to be too cool and
everything [to yell at other players].
But you're going to see a different
team come [our next game against]


Georgia."
What makes it so tough to swal-
low for many players on the team
is that despite an extremely poor
outing by Leak and the receivers,
the Gators had not one, but two
chances late in the game to score
a single touchdown and come out
victorious.
"We've just got to be disciplined
and make sure we ... believe and
don't get false starts and not jump
offsides," Leak said.
"It's just something we -have to
improve on."


Forward shows improvement in practice, work ethic


RICHARD, from page 15

has been frustrated the past two seasons.
Tendonitis slowed him down his freshman year,
and when the plan to rest him for 10 weeks at the
end of the season didn't help, Richard had to undergo
surgery.
Richard rushed his rehab to try and make it back for
his sophomore season, but he had limited leg strength and
wasn't in optimal shape.
This year, however, it's a different story. For the first


time in his career, Richard was able to participate in sum-
mer workouts.
"Chris has seen himself improve and get better,"
Donovan said. "And I think that is a tribute to him really
making some great strides as a person in terms of his work
ethic, in terms of competing, in terms of understanding
what we want as coaches."
And because Richard has now been able to get the work
in, he has the opportunity to step up, contribute and com-
pete for the starting job.
"He's healthy now. He's going into his junior year,"
Donovan said. "He needs to play and perform and con-
tribute to our team now [that he is an] upperclassman."

Gators continue to be haunted by mental breakdowns


* LATE GAME PENALTIES AGAINST
LSU COST UF A CHANCE AT VICTORY.

By ANDREW ABRAMSON
Alligator Staff Writer
aabramson@alligator.org

BATON ROUGE, La. With just more
than four minutes remaining and staring at a
21-17 deficit, the Gators have possession. It's
first-and-10 from their own 16-yard line.
. Holding on Randy Hand 5-yard penalty,
repeat first down.
After an incomplete pass and a 7-yard run


by Leak it's tliird-and-13 from UF's own 13--
yard line.
Offensive pass interference, Dallas Baker 7-
yard penalty, back to the 6-yard line.
The next play?
Incomplete pass. Punt. Misery.
Add another penalty on the Gators' final
drive that didn't make it past UF's own 30-
yard line and it was a slew of late-game men-
tal breakdowns on Saturday that ultimately
doomed the Gators to a possibly catastrophic
defeat.
How does that feel?
"It's heartbreaking," junior tailback
DeShawn Wynn said. "That [really] slowed


down the drive and the momentum."
Weren't mental mistakes supposed to be
a trademark of that other
Gators team from a year
ago, the one that suppos-
edly didn't think before act-
ing and didn't truly work
together as a team?
Yet as Coach Urban
Meyer facing failure
w nn and humiliation for the
Wynn first time in a previously
flawless career searches for answers, he
should look no further than this telling statis-
tic: heading into Saturday's game, UF ranked


second-to-last in the Southeastern Conference
in penalties.
It just got worse.
Nobody saw this coming, because at
Bowling Green and at Utah, Meyer won
games by coaching teams that played efficient,
smart football.
Meyer spent the entire off-season preach-
ing this very point, and the players seemed
to have bought into the system. Careless mis-
takes simply wouldn't be tolerated.
* "It's unacceptable and we have to get better
at it," is all a visibly shaken Meyer said after

Richard looks to live up to promise


By DAN TREAT
Alligator Writer

As the third Mr. Florida Basketball
to play for Billy Donovan, Chris
Richard has been expected to star
for the Gators since he arrived in


Gainesville two years ago.
Two years later, much of those ex-
pectations have been left unmet.
While the 6-foot-9, 255-pound ju-
nior showed signs of improvement late
last year, including a six-point, six-re-
bound performance against Kentucky


Tim Casey/ Alligator Staff
After two years of mediocrity, forward Chris Richard has an opportunity
to become a key contributor for the Gators.


in the Southeastern Conference title
game and a career-high four blocks
in the first -round of the NCAA
Tournament, his development has still
lagged behind the curb.
This year is make-or-break for
Richard; as he has the opportunity to
grab the starting power forward po-
sition vacated by a graduated David
Lee.
"I think I have the drive to do it,"
Richard said. "I think I'm capable of
doing it."
No one really knows what to expect
from him this season, but much of his
underachieving past can be traced
back to lingering knee injuries that
have hampered him throughout his
first two seasons.
"I don't know if I've babied him or
not," Donovan said. "But it probably
wasn't fair to evaluate him because he
really was injured his first two years."
With the injuries mountingand his
performance not where he wanted it
to be, Richard couldn't remember the
lowest point of his career but admits
that the situation was difficult.
"It got kind of frustrating," Richard
said. "But I came through it, and tried
to fight through it everyday, talking to
my family and praying a lot, so I got
through it."
Richard came to Gainesville after
starring at Lakeland Kathleen High
alongside Rashad Anderson, who
went on to play at Connecticut.
Richard averaged 17.3 points and
14 rebounds his senior year, but once
he arrived in Gainesville, Donovan
had trouble coaching the high school
stud.
"Chris, really, to be honest with you,
was a very, very difficult guy to coach
in his first two years here," Donovan
said. "And he has really grown."
Donovan pointed to Richard's injUi-
ries as part of the reason that Richard

Tears show how


much Gators care
he scene inside the UF locker room after the
Gators' loss must have been crazy. Players
left and-right were crying. Chris Leak and the
whole defensive line were reportedly among them.
"We were all sitting there together, the whole
[defensive] line was crying," said Joe Cohen after
the game.
These are men who are almost 300 pounds, with
biceps bigger than my legs and legs bigger than,
well, me. (Not that that's saying much.)
It's dear through the tears that something is dif-
ferent this year. These are not
wusss" tears. These are caring
tears. The team is almost actually
a team.
Last year, I remember players
smiling and laughing after they
lar Fisher lost game after game. It was as if
Extra lannings they didn't understand that they
ifisher@alligator.org were supposed to want to win.
Maybe that was the case,
as defensive tackle Marcus
Thomas said the team expected to lose last year.
This year, they did not.
But this year, they are showing the right emo-
tions after a loss. The look on Thomas' face after the
game was that of absolute disgust. (With the way the
offense played, can you blame him?) He looked so
upset that it wouldn't have surprised me at all if he
cried like Cohen said.
Todd McCullough was the last player off the field.
He was so disappointed that it looked like someone
ripped his heart out. He was in such bad shape that
someone on UF's staff had to yell at him to get off the
. field after the game.
All this crying reminds me of Matt Walsh break-
ing down on national TV last year after the UF men's
basketball lost in the first round yet again.

While the free safety position continued its
freefall into disarray Saturday, with Tony Joiner
starting instead of Kyle Jackson, it is Herring
who added more stars to his midseason report
card. The senior scooped a Joseph Addai
fumble, returning it for nine yards to LSU's 32-
yard line. Herring would later intercept an errant
JaMarcus Russell pass. "A stud," Coach Urban
Meyer said. "A great football player."

Why did he cry? Because he cared. The game meant
so much to him that it brought him to tears. The same
thing happened Saturday.
So any frat boy challenging these players' masculinity
should put your collar down, change your pink shirt and
realize that these players are crying because they wanted
to win for their team and for your school.
Why is crying over something one cares so much
.about wrong?
Even Urban Meyer cried after the game, and once
again, all that says tO me is he hates losing and that see-
ing his players hurting affected him too.
After he was asked about Leak, the first question of
the press conference, Meyer paused and tried to gather
himself. It was 23 seconds of pure awkwardness.
But it was 23 seconds that showed me how much he
cares about winning.
The players' crying means the Gators are becoming a
team, win or lose. They cry because they don't want to let
each other down; they cry because they don't want to let
their coach down.

VOLUME 99 ISSUE 39 TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2005 Crash that killed UF student a hit-and-run Fraternity brother 'would just lift everyone' By KYLIE CRAIG Alligator Writer kcraig@alligator.org The flag outside the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity house hung at half-mast Monday following the death of fraternity brother and UF sophomore Patrick Brett, 20, in a hit-and-run car accident Sunday. Brett was driving with two UF students and two University of Central Florida students southbound on Interstate 75 after attending the UF-Louisiana State University football game. At about 5:30 p.ni. a van cut off Brett's 2003 Ford sportutility vehicle, according to a Florida Highway Patrol accident report. Brett swerved to avoid hitting the van but then overcorrected, causing the vehicle to flip. He died at the scene. His passengers were not seriously injured. UF sophomore Jennifer Ostrander, 20, was not wearing her seatbelt and suffered broken ribs, FHP spokesman Lt. Mike Burroughs said. UF student William "Bud" Hawkins, 21, and the two UCF students suffered minor cuts and bruises. Drew Metzger, 20, and Matthew LaFleur, 22, were in good condition as of Monday night, said Michael Taylor, president of their UCF-chapter Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity. The passengers told police they thought it was a silver or blue Nissan Quest that cut Brett off, Burroughs said. They said the Nissan stopped a quarter of a mile south of the accident only for a moment before driving away. .Burroughs said the first aid to arrive at the scene were a high school health teacher, who performed CPR on Brett, and a vehicle carrying doctors, who performed CPR as well. Phi Delta Theta President Matt Zaltsberg said Brett's death has been tough for all members of his fraternity. "Everyone wanted to be around him. His laugh and smile were almost infectious," Zaltsberg said. "We're trying to take it a day at a time." Brett joined the fraternity in Fall 2004. Chris Seber, one of Brett's pledge brothers, said Brett was well-liked by everyone. "You didn't have to know him. All you had to do is look at his smile," Seber said. "There's so many times where everyone around you is in a bad mood, and if Pat was there .he'd just lift everyone up." Florida Highway Patrol is seeking any information regarding the other vehicle involved in the accident. Anyone with information is asked to call Lt. Burroughs at 386-758-0519.

Low pay drives UF faculty *--ay By STEPHEN MAGRUDER Alligator Writer smagruder@alIigator.org UF isn't paying its educators enough to keep them from going elsewhere, according to some faculty members and graduate assistants. Despite annual pay raises, some claim that UF's rates aren't competitive with other universities' or jobs in the private sector. "A lot of departments areunder pressure to meet the market if they're going to attract people," said Jon Hamilton, chairman of UF's Department of Economics in the Warrington College of Business Administration. Hamilton was referring to the market that includes teaching positions at 6ther universities as well as job openings in private companies -something especially relevant to business professors with a keen knowledge of the economy. As a result, business-administration faculty members tend to earn more money than other educators. For the 2004-2005 school year, business administration faculty members earned an average salary of almost $134,000, beating out faculty in pharmacy, engineering, medicine and law, who respectively earned average salaries ranging from $87,000 to $114,000. The salary average for faculty members was $78,922.03. UF's most recent raise boosted business faculty's salaries about 4.6 percent, Hamilton said, but that raise did not solve the problem. "It may have kept up with inflation," he said. "What [administrators] haven't done is kept up with the professor job market, and so there's a lot of salary compression at UF."

Park set to Improve downtown TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2005 1 ALLIGATOR, 3 -W uzm11ik NOT ALL LOCALS ARE HAPPY WITH THE PROJECT. By ASHTON GROSZ Alligator Writer At the intersection of Depot Avenue and Main Street, you can see three 25-foot-high earthen skyscrapers colored tan, gray and black. These stacks of soil signal the first phase of the long-term East Gainesville Depot Park Project, which is intended to restore the environment and spur economic growth in the area. But some doubt whether a park can facilitate business. Steve Brotherton has owned land in East Gainesville since 1978, and the park's construction now backs up against his property. He describes the south strip of Main Street as "stagnant," where empty buildings are a common sight. As president of Continental Imports of Gainesville, a specialized auto service center, Brotherton said he doesn't think the project will affect his business very much. Matt Dube, the projects coordinator for Gainesville's Commurity Redevelopment Agency, said the project promotes sustainable economic development by revitalizing the area and eliminating negative influences on community pride. The project's key component is its stormwater basin, an 11-acre shallow pond where 80 acres of the downtown area's contaminated nmoff water will drain to improve the quality of water seeping into Florida's aquifer. "It [the storm water basin] just moves stormwater capacity that individual businesses would have to use to the centralized location in the park," Dub6 said. Mark Brown, UF environmental engineering sciences professor, explained that stormwater basins Around improve the aindsv e contents of the Gainesville aquifer by trapping nutrients, such as phosphorus and nitrogen, attached to fall-out sediment in still runoff water. The basin will be lined with wetland vegetation that feeds on the nutrients. City Commissioner Craig Lowe said the Depot Park Project addresses both ecological and economic responsibilities by helping downtown businesses reduce pollution. "By providing for stormwater," he said, "we're allowing for economic development by allowing potential business developments to utilize the Depot basin instead of processing their stormwater on-site." Another concem Brotherton voiced about the park project is that businesses in Gainesville traditionally do not infill, or tear down old industrial warehouses and rebuild their own. Rather, business owners elect to find new land with less risk of contamination while the warehouses fill a series of minor, lesser uses until they almost fall apart. In the long term, he said the new park might increase the value of his property, which hasn't changed for almost 20 years, but'he's skeptical that the area will transform into a downtown extension. "You gotta get people to build on top of old industrial buildings for that to happen," Brotherton said. "That doesn't happen in Gainesville." According to the city of Gainesville's official Web site, the stormwater park will sit on the former site of a coal gasification plant. The soil's contaminants must be extracted before soil remediation can begin. Dub6 has not heard of any previous stormwater basins built on top of so-called brownfields. He said Gainesville Regional Utilities' gas customers would fund the cleanup as part of their gas service bills. Yolanta Jonynas, project licenser for GRU, said soil remediation would cost gas-utillty customers a total of $11.2 million over 30 years as a percentage of their bills. The park's design summary includes a skatepark, a children's play area, more than one mile of boardwalks and pathways, a sculpture garden, pedestrian lighting and a restored historic train depot. Jeh aFmye lrThe City Commission hopes parks will help revitalize East Gainesville.

4, ALLIGATOR U TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2005 STUDENT LIFE Med trips reach out to needy By RESHELLE SMITH Alligator Contributing Writer While many students sunbathe on beaches during Spring Break, nearly 100 UF health science students will travel to underprivileged areas of Latin America to provide medical care. Students from different health-related disciplines divide up into five groups to travel to the Dominican Republic, the Haiti-Dominican Republic border, Mexico and Ecuador. Every group is accompanied by two.or three UF faculty doctors. Each of the five trips costs about $20,000, and about half of the funding is dependent on donations. Fundraising for the trips has already begun, but gathering donations has been more difficult than usual this year. Donations for Hurricane Katrina victims have sometimes taken priority over donations to help the students fund their trips, said Jeff Janus, a secondyear medical student and a trip leader for Project Heal, a medical mission trip to Ecuador. "We understand that people want to take care of their own, but in some of these countries, it's like Katrina 24/7," he said. Each group will spend five days treating patients, many of whom would otherwise receive no healthcare at all. Kuon Lo, a second-year medical student, became a trip leader for Project Haiti after making the trip last Spring. He said the lack of infrastructure in Haiti forces its people to struggle with afflictions that would never be allowed to progress in the United States. "I can't see my education being complete without this." Kuon Lo UF medical student "We see tumors the size of basketballs; we see fungal and bacterial infections progressed to really advanced stages," he said. "It's really amazing on an intellectual level and appalling on a socioeconomic level how something so simple that would be taken care of immediately in the U.S. progresses to such an unbelievable stage in these people." The sometimes-grotesque effects of diseases leave an impression, Lo said. "I can't see my education being complete without this," he said. Lo added that some Haitians walked for two hours to reach the students because they offered the nearest medical attention.In the Mexican state of Yucatan -where the healthcare system is much better -students faced the challenge of making diagnoses without many of the modern tests regularly performed in American hospitals, said Maahir Haque, a second-year medical student and leader of Project Yucatan. On the Haiti-Dominican Republic border, the medical students and physicians would see 100 to 150 patients each day, Lo said. In Ecuador, they would see 200 to 300 people per day, Janus said. For some advanced cases that the students could not treat, they would give the patients money and refer them to a hospital, Lo said. But offering good primary care is a great help to those who would otherwise have virtually no medical care. The groups focus on preventative medicine and education by giving prenatal vitamins to pregnant women and providing basic necessities, such as toothbrushes and toothpaste. "It's a little effort for us to go, but it helps them so much," Janus said. Those who wish to help or donate can contact Lo at kuonlo@ufl.edu or Janus at jjanus@ufl.edu, "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" Islam on Campus says (PET HUNGRy r"UR CH ANGE.1.1.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2005 E ALLIGATOR,5 9 .0 0 "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" By BOBBY KEITH Alligator Contributing Writer Kanye West wasn't the only big-name rapper to perform in Gainesville last week, but this time it was personal. Trick Daddy performed a concert for invite-only fans at a packed club XS on Saturday night paid for by UF student Kayte Susse, who rented out XS for 500 guests to celebrate her 21st birthday. While Susse wouldn't comment on the price of her party, she said booking someone like Trick Daddy is "not cheap." The artist requested Grey Goose vodka and Hennessey while at the club, said event coordinator Olivia Ormos. Aline stretched in front of XS and down University Avenue as bouncers ensured the anxious fans were on the list. Trick Daddy arrived surrounded by security guards at around midTrick Daddy night, wearing a Florida Marlins cap and a gold necklace with a sparkling 305, the area code of his native Miar-. Trick Daddy sang about six of his songs, includ*ing hits "Shut Up," "Sugar" and "I'm a Thug." The show lasted 25 minutes, about what he was contracted to play, Ormos said. Susse said she was excited to share her birthday with the star. "Trick is my boy," she said. Study: UF must raise wages to keep teachers FACULTY, from page 1 When salaries become compressed, new professors start earning nearly as much as returning professors, which can cause conflict about adequate pay for their skills and experience. If money isn't available to keep UF salaries in line with national averages, it may drive faculty members to take jobs at better-paying private universities or at companies in their field of expertise. "It's a problem in any institution that to some extent has a fairly rigid salary structure," he said. A 2004 UF-sponsored study on faculty compensation supported the claims of some employees. It stated that UT must increase its wages to remain competitive in hiring and retaining professors. The study also offered suggestions on developing UF into a Top 10 public research institution. The study showed that ,UF salary averages trailed behind those of the Association of American Universities as well as Minnesota and Ohio State universities, two institutions similar in size and structure to UT. Associate Provost Joe Glover could not be reached for comment. Better pay at other universities could tempt more than just UF's top professors. Todd Reynolds, co-president of UF's Graduate Assistants United, said the same thing is happening to members of his organization. "They're losing graduate students because we're not competitive," Reynolds said. Graduate assistants, like faculty members, receive a yearly raise. Reynolds said they were able to lobby for a 3.6 percent raise this year. Salaries for graduate assistants are based on 9and 12-month schedules, as well as what are known as full-time U F equivalencies, about 40 $A 1inifti lio hours of work per week. The average graduate assistant working 20 hours a week for nine months will make a minimum of $7,665, or about $393 every two weeks. Stipends provided by the university cover the cost of tuition for graduate -assistants, but Reynolds said they are not enough. "Our stipends are among the lowest in the country," he said. "I can't pay my rent with my tuition waiver." -Graduate assistants are leaving to the University of Georgia, which Reynolds said offers better pay and benefits. "If you're good at teaching, you'll pick what place pays you better," he said. "We're not going to be competitive until we offer better packages." '&' --5 j 0-2 gomng on?

6, ALLIGATOR U TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2005 Editorial No choice Healthcare program sets dangerous precedent A choice has been made, and students will soon start to see the money they didn't know they donated in action. Since January, we've all been paying an extra quarter-cent sales tax to fund a new healthcare program called Community Health Offering Innovative Care and Educational Services. The Choices program's kickoff was Saturday. Doesn't ring a bell? That's because you probably didn't vote for or against the initiative when it appeared in the August 2004 election. Students make up almost half of Gainesville, yet we never go to the polls. And sometimes, the issues considered actually concern us. In the case of Choices, we're paying an estimated $15 to $20 extra a year for a service for which most students don't qualify. The program's mission is to provide limited primary healthcare to uninsured workers aged 18 to 64. Those residents must work full-time and have a certain income level. Those who are covered under Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans Affairs are not eligible, nor are those whose jobs offer insurance, even if they must pay for that benefit. Basically, Choices is for the minority that slips through the cracks of government and private healthcare. And the government has lots of cracks. The program is an indicator of the insufficiency of government healthcare. But it also marks a dangerous precedent'of local governments taking up the slack. Students are the consumer majority in Gainesville and are a large force in Alachua County. Many don't have healthcare. Many work, but can't work full time because of classes. Many forego the option of university healthcare because the price is above their budgets, and the plan is mostly useless. Choices does not help them. So if students put in the bulk of money for an Alachua CouTty minority, then Gainesville residents can throw in a few cents to pay for students' missing healthcare. We'll admit there are many privileged students of Gainesville. Their parents pay for their tuition, their cars, their shopping and their niceapartments. But remember that this is a public university, and there are plenty of students in need and with families. Why aren't residents helping them with a tax? If every community were to try to fill the holes of state and federal government with individual initiatives like Choices, there would be no motivation to fix the system. And the system must be fixed. If people are living in poverty and are not covered by an existing healthcare program, that's a serious problem. We can't just whisk it away by implementing a seven-year program based on taking money from the poor and giving it to the poor. Once again, local government is using students for the benefit of a resident minority. But at the same time they help the community, students must also deal with different levels of prejudices that show up from property leases to bar laws. Choices, which was passed by a small majority last year, is just one example how students can be exploited because of their neglect of local affairs. Students have become the food that Gainesville feasts on; they must vote or give up their rights as equal citizens. *4 A t o r Mike Gimignani EDITOR Eva Kis MANAGING EDITOR Emily Yehle OPINIONS EDITOR Tom Durrenberger, Scott Gilton, Andrew Meyer EDITORIAL BOARD The Alligator encourages comments from readers.

IN 11 Opinions ( 44 AN& Milers' past reveals lack of experience t's been two weeks since President Bush nominated Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court, and despite efforts by various news organizations to unearth some semblance of a legal record, her paper trail is about as long as a stray piece of toilet paper on the bottom of someone's shoe. I've tried to withhold judgment until the confirmation hearings, but a look into Miers' past makes waiting unnecessary. It would be incredibly surprising if Miers exhibited even a fraction of the constitutional knowledge that newly appointed Chief Justice John Roberts possesses in the tip of his pinky finger. President Bush contends that Miers has "real-world experience." So does every other Joe Schmo. Whereas Chief Justice Roberts argued 39 cases before the Supreme Court, Miers has argued none. The problem isn't so much that she's never been a judge -neither were many justices before her -but that she has no experience in constitutional law. Miers was never a law professor like William Douglas. .She never legislated in Congress like 27 other justices without judicial experience had. And she was never a leading appellate lawyer like John Roberts. The consistency of her constitutional knowledge is about as thick as a piece of one-ply. As usual, President Bush has been blinded by loyalty. Miers has served him as his personal attorney in Texas, head of the Texas Lottery Commission, White House staff secretary and White House counsel. As conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer put it, "If Harriet Miers were not a crony of the president of the United States, her nomination to the Supreme Court would be a joke, as it would have occurred to no one else to nominate her." Aaron BlyeSomething along -the way Blye's Eyes might prove all the naysayers ietters@aligator.org wrong. Bur it's highly unlikely, as indicated by the records released Oct. 10 of Miers' term as chairwoman of the Texas Lottery Commission. "You are the best governor ever -deserving of great respect!" Miers gushed-in a belated birthday card to George W. Bush in 1997. On the front of the card was a cute little puppy. Later that year, Miers wrote Bush a note saying she hoped his twin daughters, Jerma and Barbara, recognize that they have "cool" parents. Honestly, I don't think I could make this up even if I tried. Conservatives are eating Miers alive, and liberals are following the wise words of Napoleon Bonaparte -"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." But I have come up with a solution that serves everyone. Miers seems to have such superb card-writing skills; instead of making her a lifetime appointee to the highest court in the land, why not appoint her lifetime CEO of Hallmark instead?

FORTUNE' 100 BEST COMPANIES(= TO WORK FORa Quality In Everything We Do Guest column UF reactor is secure Must write a response to some of the most irresponsible journalism I have seen in along time. ABC's "investigation" into "gaping security lapses" at university nuclear research reactors is nothing short of a hatchet job that shamelessly alarms the public. These Carnegie Fellows who did the "investigation" may be distinguished journalism students, but that does not mean their findings are credible or wellresearched. They say they were allowed to drive a truck within 50 feet of a campus reactor building. They do not, however, bother to find out if the reactor is vulnerable to an explosive attack from an outside Christian Acosta ABceen Speaking Out wBC even its own article that the MIT reactor has been studied and shown to withstand a large truck bomb. The UF reactor, for example, is underneath 50 tons of concrete and sits inside a multi-story building. .If anyone decided to explode a truck bomb on campus, the least dangerous place for it to explode would be outside the reactor building. ABC's "expert," Graham T. Allison, is a political scientist who has written nothing but negative articles on nuclear power. Just looking at his history of publications, I would venture to say he is not an unbiased source of information. His statement, "highly enriched uranium that's vulnerable is an unacceptable threat to me," may be a responsible position, but it is irresponsibly applied in this report. He never explains how the nuclear material is vulnerable when it is inside the reactor fuel bundles, placed inside a pit, covered .by 50 tons of concrete and inside a large building. He said, "explosive material plus radioac-tive material equals dirty bomb." I say that explosive rhetoric plus ignorance equals shamelessly lying to the American public. I am deeply saddened that ABC would release such a poor piece of reporting. The truth is that where there exists an economic agenda, there also exists a bias. I am not saying we should disregard reactor safety, nor am I saying that constant oversight is a bad thing. What I am saying is that the type of journalism ABC seems to support is self-motivated, poorly researched and does nothing but alarm people without just cause. Christian Acosta is a nuclear engineering graduate student.

14, ALLIGATOR N TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2005 ANOTHER SHOT: Although Urban Meyer and 0 Chris Leak both said his shoulder was fine for the game against LSU, it was revealed on Monday by offensive coordinator Dan Mullen that Leak received another cortisone shot before the game. "I think he took a shot on Saturday before the game, but he didn't need to, and I kind of told him, 'I don't think you have to, why even bother?"' Mullen said. "He said, 'Well, why not? Just to have it done."' Mullen said the trainers said Leak was 100 percent going into the game, but it was done for precautionary measures. Leak's problems were mostly due to poor mechanics, Mullen said. "The ones that he threw, if you go watch the tape, you can tell when he planted his feet and threw the ball and you can tell when hn kind of didn't plant his feet and was trying to aim it," Mullen said. EASY MONDAY: Some Gators were rewarded for their hard work in Saturday's game. For the second week in a row, UF's first team got a light workout on Monday. Coach Urban Meyer even left practice early, but for an out-of-town speaking engagement, according to UF Sports Information. "These guys that were out here today didn't do a damn thing on Saturday, so these guys -it's their game today," offensive line coach John Hevesy said. ETC: CBS has picked up the Gators' Oct. 29 game against Georgia. The game will be broadcast nationally at 3:30pm. Michelle Stewart, Ian Fisher/ Alligator Staff Some players have yet to buy into Meyer's system FOOTBALL, from page 15 the game, but one of his players had another explanation as to why the Gators are making mental takes and playing losing football. "We're trying to build a team right now and we have a couple of people on the boat but not everybody," junior defensive tackle Marcus Thomas. "Once we've got everybody it's gomg to be something special." It's more than halfway into the season, and the Gators are still having the same problems they had a year ago when it comes to team leadership. Thomas blamed himself and other leaders on the team for not forcing some of the less vocal players to get it together mentally. "It's frustrating because it's partly me to blame. I should be in their ears," Thomas said. "I've got people back in there trying to be too cool and everything [to yell at other players]. But you're going to see a different team come [our next game against] Georgia." What makes it so tough to swallow for many players on the team is that despite an extremely poor outing by Leak and the receivers, the Gators had not one, but two chances late in the game to score a single touchdown and come out victorious. "We've just got to be disciplined and make sure we .believe and don't get false starts and not jump offsides," Leak said. "It's just something we -have to improve on." Forward shows improvement in practice, work ethic RICHARD, from page 15 has been frustrated the past two seasons. Tendonitis slowed him down his freshman year, and when the plan to rest him for 10 weeks at the end of the season didn't help, Richard had to undergo surgery. Richard rushed his rehab to try and make it back for his sophomore season, but he had limited leg strength and wasn't in optimal shape. This year, however, it's a different story. For the first time in his career, Richard was able to participate in summer workouts. "Chris has seen himself improve and get better," Donovan said. "And I think that is a tribute to him really making some great strides as a person in terms of his work ethic, in terms of competing, in terms of understanding what we want as coaches." And because Richard has now been able to get the work in, he has the opportunity to step up, contribute and compete for the starting job. "He's healthy now. He's going into his junior year," Donovan said. "He needs to play and perform and contribute to our team now [that he is an] upperclassman."

Sports TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2005 ALLIGATOR www.alligatorSports.org atorsD %ntinue to be haunted by mental breakdown's E LATE GAME PENALTIES AGAINST LSU COST UF A CHANCE AT VICTORY. By ANDREW ABRAMSON Alligator Staff Writer aabramson@alligator.org BATON ROUGE, La. -With just more than four minutes remaining and staring at a 21-17 deficit, the Gators have possession. It's first-and-10 from their own 16-yard line. Holding on Randy Hand -5-yard penalty, repeatfirst down. After an incomplete pass and a 7-yard run by Leak it's tiird-and-13 from UF's own 13yard line. Offensive pass interference, Dallas Baker -7yard penalty, back to the 6-yard line. The next play? Incomplete pass. Punt. Misery. Add another penalty on the Gators' final drive that didn't make it past UF's own 30yard line and it was a slew of late-game mental breakdowns on Saturday that ultimately doomed the Gators to a possibly catastrophic defeat. How does that feel? "It's heartbreaking," junior tailback DeShawn Wynn said. "That [really] slowed down the drive and the momentum." Weren't mental mistakes supposed to be a trademark of that other Gators team from a year ago, the one that supposedly didn't think before acting and didn't truly work together as a team? Yet as Coach Urban Meyer -facing failure and humiliation for the .first time in a previously flawless career -searches for answers, he should look no further than this telling statistic: heading into Saturday's game, UF ranked second-to-last in the Southeastern Conference in penalties. It just got worse. Nobody saw this coming, because at Bowling Green and at Utah, Meyer -won games by coaching teams that played efficient, smart football. Meyer spent the entire off-season preaching this very point, and the players seemed to have bought into the system. Careless mistakes simply wouldn't be tolerated. -"It's unacceptable and we have to get better at it," is all a visibly shaken Meyer said after SEE FOOTBALL, PAGE 14 RIhrd ooks t live up t prom ise By DAN TREAT Alligator Writer As the third Mr. Florida Basketball to play for Billy Donovan, Chris Richard has been expected to star for the Gators since he arrived in Gainesville two years ago. Two years later, much of those expectations have been left unmet. While the 6-foot-9, 255-pound junior showed signs of improvement late last year, including a six-point, six-rebound performance against Kentucky Tim Casey/ Alligator Staff After two years of mediocrity, forward Chris Richard has an opportunity to become a key contributor for the Gators. in the Southeastern Conference title game and a career-high four blocks in the first -round of the NCAA Tournament, his development has still lagged behind the curb. This year is make-or-break for Richard; as he has the opportunity to grab the starting power forward position vacated by a graduated David Lee. "I think I have the drive to do it," Richard said. "I think I'm capable of doing it." No one really knows what to expect from him this season, but much of his underachieving past can be traced back to lingering knee injuries that have hampered him throughout his first two seasons. "I don't know if I've babied him or not," Donovan said. "But it probably wasn't fair to evaluate him because he really was injured his first two years." With the injuries mounting and his performance not where he wanted it to be, Richard couldn't remember the lowest point of his career but admits that the situation was difficult. "It got kind of frustrating," Richard said. "But I came through it, and tried to fight through it everyday, talking to my family and praying a lot, so I got through it." Richard came to Gainesville after starring at Lakeland Kathleen High alongside Rashad Anderson, who went on to play at Connecticut. Richard averaged 17.3 points and 14 rebounds his senior year, but once he arrived in Gainesville, Donovan had trouble coaching the high school stud. "Chris, really, to be honest with you, was a very, very difficult guy to coach in his first two years here," Donovan said. "And he has really grown." Donovan pointed to Richard's injiries as part of the reason that Richard SEE RICHARD, PAGE 14 1. Southern California.992 2. Texas .959 3. Virginia Tech .907 4. Georgia .893 5. Alabama .822 20.

EINHL: Panthers vs. Devils FSN, 7:30 p.m. EClassic Boxing : Ali vs Patterson I (1965) ESPN Classic, 8 p.m. Tears show how much Gators care he scene inside the UF locker room after the Gators' loss must have been crazy. Players left and-right were crying. Chris Leak and the whole defensive line were reportedly among them. "We were all sitting there together, the whole [defensive] line was crying," said Joe Cohen after the game. These are men who are almost 300 pounds, with biceps bigger than my legs and legs bigger than, well, me. (Not that that's saying much.) Its clear through the tears that something is different this year. These are not wuss" tears. These are caring tears. The team is almost actually a team. Last year, I remember players smiling and laughing after they Ian Fisher lost game after game. It was as if Extra lannings they didn't understand that theFy ifisher@alligator.org were supposed to want to win. Maybe that was the case, as defensive tackle Marcus Thomas said the team expected to lose last year. This year, they did not. But this year, they are showing the right emotions after a loss. The look on Thomas' face after the game was that of absolute disgust. (With the way the offense played, can you blame him?) He looked so upset that it wouldn't have surprised me at all if he cried like Cohen said. Todd McCullough was the last player off the field. He was so disappointed that it looked like someone ripped his heart out. He was in such bad shape that someone on UF's staff had to yell at him to get off the field after the game. All this crying reminds me of Matt Walsh breaking down on national TV last year after the UF men's basketball lost in the first round yet again.

16, ALLIGATOR 0 TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2005 While the free safety position continued its freefall into disarray Saturday, with Tony Joiner starting instead of Kyle Jackson, it is Herring who added more stars to his midseason report card. The senior scooped a Joseph Addai fumble, returning it for nine yards to LSU's 32yard line. Herring would later intercept an errant JaMarcus Russell pass. "A stud," Coach Urban Meyer said. "A great football player." Jarvis Herring, FS, Sr. It was one thing for Moss to get some playing time again. But against LSU he did the unthinkable. He was a playmaker who harassed Runnail all-game lung, resulting ir, three tucks and a fumble. Mus shon n ill-effects tram the staph infection the training staff treated this summer and is on his way to being a stud for many more games. Jarvis Moss, DE, So. The only thing more surprisingthan DeShawn Wynn's performance was hearing his voice for the first time in over a year after the game. The now outspoken back was the only pulse on offense, breaking tackles and showing a burst of speed we had forgotten about. It looks like the days of UF's four-headed running back are over.

Why did he cry? Because he cared. The game meant so much to him that it brought him to tears. The same thing happened Saturday. So any frat boy challenging these players' masculinity should put your collar down, change your pink shirt and realize that these players are crying because they wanted to win for their team and for your school. Why is crying over something one cares so much about wrong? Even Urban Meyer cried after the game, and once again, all that says td me is he hates losing and that seeing his players hurting affected him too. After he was asked about Leak, the first question of the press conference, Meyer paused and tried to gather himself. It was 23 seconds of pure awkwardness. But it was 23 seconds that showed me how much he cares about winning. The players' crying means the Gators are becoming a team, win or lose. They cry because they don't want to let each other down; they cry because they don't want to let their coach down. Anyone got a tissue? M I
