NEWS FLASH ANOTHER GATOR IN TROUBLE WITH THE LAW:

From ESPN.com:

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida freshman defensive back Deiondre Porter has been suspended indefinitely following his arrest on four felony charges.

Porter, one of the team's top special teams players, was arrested Wednesday on aggravated assault charges.

The Gators announced his suspension on Twitter, and coach Jim McElwain addressed it on the Southeastern Conference coaches call.

"He's no longer with the football team," McElwain said. "He's suspended indefinitely for obviously a choice. It's his choice not to be with us. I'm sure you'll read about it soon enough. It's one of those things that we don't obviously condone. Like I said, it was his choice."

Alachua County court records list one charge of aggravated battery (second-degree felony), one charge of firing a weapon into a vehicle or building (third-degree felony) and two charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill (third-degree felony).

Police report is pretty bad. He accused his pregnant GF of cheating on him with a teammate, held a gun to her head and then shot a wall near her.

Wow. Seems like the Gators and Seminoles are trying to out-Florida each other.

"The Gators announced the suspension on Twtter."

What a class act.

Wow. Seems like the Gators and Seminoles are trying to out-Florida each other.

+1.  When Miami isn't filling the headlines, somebody has to step in and fill the bad press void.

4-8. 4-8. 4-8. You should worry about this season, buddy.

I am zeroed in on this season, it's the mustard-and-ketchup crowd looking backward -- and given that fact, I'll only add this: Larry Jones, FSU chicken wire, 0-11. All Noles might want to shut the hell up. Rest assured, we'll be waiting on you and your boyz in Gainesville. The natural order is being restored. You won't have long to talk much more yang.

I was actually referring to Music Man's post. I'm a Gator

Oops !!! My bad.

You know what's funny to me. This whole argument of "my program is cleaner than yours!" Listen, go down the line and almost EVERY major D-1 football program have their bad seeds. The one's that don't? Probably aren't competing at a high level. That simple.

UF handled this situation well and this kid will never see the football field again.

[tufsu1]

well clearly you didn't help us last year...or in 2013 for that matter

The real issue is why do you need us to help your strength of schedule?  We have certainly never needed you.  If FSU played some real teams other than UF (and Miami in the 80's & late 90's ), you'd be better for it.

get back to me when UF actually plays an out of conference game outside the state of Florida....its been more than 35 years!

[thelakelander]

LOL, at this thread. There's nothing better than seeing Miami's two little sisters go back and forth.

Oh, and if UF does add an out of conference game, make sure it's against UM. Tell the AD that Sapp, Irvin, Blades, Lewis, and the boys have graduated, so it's ok to play us again. Canes will be more than happy to flood out the swamp.

That won't help them out with the whole 'playing a non-SEC game outside the state of Florida' thing.  But kudos to UF for finally scheduling one....they will be playing Michigan at Cowboys Stadium in 2017.  Of course, that's a neutral site game vs. a true road game, but its a start.

Graduated??

They booked that game with Michigan before Harbaugh became coach. It will be a whole different experience than what they were expecting.

yep...maybe they will try to back out of it

[MusicMan]

To be fair, the Gators did not have Coach Mac when they booked it. This will be a fun, groundbreaking game.
