The Gators are doing well in baseball and women's gymnastics, but that's about all.

Actually going to Oshkosh, by automobile, as part of a long roadtrip. I'll be there on Monday and Tuesday.

Florida seems to be trying to establish an Alabama in the East by hiring all the old Alabama assistant coaches they can find.
