100 reasons to be excited for Florida Gators football in 2013

Alligator Army — As you may have noticed, we're slowly ramping up Florida football coverage around these parts: Now that the offseason and the summer doldrums are fully upon us, and only a handful of Gators teams remain in season, there's more time to spend on the rigorous analysis we want to do to give you the best possible preview of Florida football in 2013. Today, the Gators taking the field in The Swamp against Toledo on August 31, 2013 is just 100 days away. One thing we're not going to do as a preview is kick off a countdown of 100 posts in 100 days — we've tried two separate takes on the __ in ...

Will Florida baseball make the 2013 NCAA Tournament?

Alligator Army — The bubble is a cruel and unforgiving place when it comes to NCAA Tournaments. Teams that sit on the bubble never quite get comfortable; teams that have theirs pop fall to inglorious doom; teams that make it in off the bubble rarely do much in the NCAA Tournament, with stories like VCU's from 2011 very much rare tales. And so Florida baseball's late-season swoon, which seemingly landed it squarely on the bubble, was a ticket to painful uncertainty. I think #UF is still in.

Florida football recruiting: Ryeshene Bronson decommits from Gators

Alligator Army — Florida's efforts to build its 2014 recruiting class got off to a flying start in 2012 and early 2013. That momentum has taken a hit of late: 247Sports' Luke Stampini reports that wide receiver Ryeshene Bronson has decommitted from Florida, just days after linebacker Christian Miller decommitted from the Gators' class. Stampini doesn't give much of a reason for Bronson's decommitment — which he confirmed through sources at his school, Fort Myers' Dunbar High — but hints that he had heard rumblings of it for a while ($), which provides a few possible explanations for Bronson's decommitm...

Orange crushed again: Florida lacrosse falls to Syracuse in NCAA Tournament for second straight year

Alligator Army — Florida's nascent lacrosse powerhouse came to the Carrier Dome in Syracuse with revenge for last year's NCAA Tournament loss on their minds. After Syracuse's 13-9 win over the Gators, the wonderful women who built this program will leave it this evening without that revenge, and with a bitter taste in their mouths after one of the sweetest possible beginnings for a brand-new program. Florida never had the upper hand in this game, which was played on the road by virtue of NCAA Tournament seeding that gave the Gators the No. 5 national seed despite wins over the No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 s...

Alligator Army — 2014 linebacker Christian Miller, a top-100 recruit according to both 247Sports and Rivals, has decommitted from Florida, 247Sports' J.C. Shurburtt reports.

Shurburtt also has a quote from Miller here, but that's a paywalled thread. As I wrote back in February, Miller's commitment was a strong start in an eff...
