Undoubtedly, one of the most exciting, dynamic players in college football last season was Percy Harvin, the quarkback from Florida who helped push his team to a national title (they also had some “Tebow” guy). But after declaring early, Harvin dropped all the way to the 22nd pick and the Minnesota Vikings. Among the factors in the drop, as you might recall, was the second-most ominous/vague term in football: “character issues”*.
(”Character issues” are never anything good, like “is awesome at football”)
Those rumors didn’t exactly disappear over the offseason, either; whether it was Harvin’s rumored pot use or hs hospitalization for dehydration or whatever immediately after landing on a flight, whispers were rampant. So on an invitation from coaches, he went to a Florida function with some recruits to sell the whole Florida experience to them, and we’re sure he was instructed to just say good things about everyone for five minutes and leave.
But this is Percy Harvin, you see, and s–t’s about to go crazy.
As SPARTY AND FRIENDS reports, it may be time to add “verbal diarrhea” to the list of character issues:
What we’re hearing:
- Harvin discussed his continuous pot use, and how he was able to smoke it for the majority of his time at UF.
- Harvin also confirmed the long time rumor that he made a mistake and choked his wide receivers coach, and how the school gave him a second chance by covering it up so the media didn’t report it.
- He also talked about the benefits that being a Gator brought to the party scene in Gainesville.
Immediately, head coach Urban Meyer regretted not bringing a gun to the meeting.
But honestly - we’re not strict moral relativists here or anything, but if a guy can do this:
…don’t you really feel like looking the other way a little bit when it comes to burning some hippie lettuce every now and then?
The Sprewell act thing, of course, is a little more serious. Tsk tsk and tut tut, and go sit in a cor–HOLY CRAP DID YOU JUST SEE HIM BUST A COUNTER TREY FOR 70 YARDS HOLY JESUS NO MORE PUNISHMENT JUST DO THAT OVER AND OVER PERCY WE LOVE YOU YOU MAY SPEND THE NIGHT WITH TEBOW’S GIRLFRIEND** YOU ARE AMAZING.
*Number one, of course, is “violation of team rules,” enforcement of which doesn’t seem to exist at Florida.
**Reminder: Lucy Pinder is not Tebow’s girlfriend.

Things are going to be much different when going up against NFL D’s than those Arkansas Razorbacks.
I smell bust!!! Like Reggie Bush!!

Typical hyoocrite Gator trash. Urban and Jesus (Tim Tebow) get all the pub for being hollier than everyone when the majority of the team is made up of these circa ’90s Miami Hurricane thugs. They lead the nation in arrests in Meyer’s tenure ,but they keep ringin up those wins. Somebody has to expose this programs dirty little secret…
1:32 am on August 4th, 2009
I see the haters are already out in full effect. Pathetic.
Oh and D-Cheeseburger, how about ‘bust” as in darren McFaggden?

@ECF: You’re a queer.

ECF, it looks like you wouldn’t know a dirty little secret if it was sitting on your head. Florida doesn’t even lead their division in the SEC in arrests over the last few years. But you’re right though, keep ringing in those wins Gators and keep watching these haters turn green with envy.

McFadden won’t be a bust.. Guaranteed.
10:31 am on August 4th, 2009
Looks like Grandin and the bridgetender are two more GAYturd homers. Its expected for stuck up little mammas boy GAYtor fans to blindly follow their butt buddy Tebow anywhere Urban the fraud leads him. Its OK Harvin will be a bust like every other reject from Cowtown, FL and more than likely end up as Plaxs’ cell mate.

Percy also took Tebow virginity, another Gator cover up*
10:14 pm on August 4th, 2009
Holy crap! Where do these morons come from? If you’re anything like this ECF turd in real life I pity the fool who calls you friend!

“Everyone” Loves the Gators!
Some things never change. When we had Spurrier, we had one of the cleanest programs in the Country. We won title after title and singlehandedly forced the SEC to graduate to the 21st century a bit early.
Then we had Zook and lost 5 games a year, while putting together tremendous recruiting classes, including a number of kids with “issues” or skeletons in the closet, so to speak.
Then Meyer inherited many of those same kids, and turned us around immediately, culminating with SEC and National titles in year #2. Yeah, but he wasn’t really running his spread offense, and was doing all of this with “Zook’s players.”
Then 2 years later, we again hoist the crystal trophy and are the odds on favorite to do so again this season.
What will the complaints and comments be in January this time, when we win our 3rd title in 4 years?
Let me guess: “yeah, but it’s over now. Tebow is gone and Florida will revert back to form.
yada yada yada
We are the Gators and we are YOUR Champions!

I have substantial evidence that ‘Urban’ “Vince Mcmahon”Meyer will be a golden domer up on the Touchdown Jesus in 2 years. Write it down right now here on this shiny stone right here right this moment.
There he will replace the false wannabe prophet/fake rarely bestowed ‘big nosed’ /buzzcut and steroid induced kid with the real creator. Mark the nbc written contracted and rudy chanted words.

I don’t know if I believe this either. Hey and easy on on the use of gay and queer. I’m not gay but my boyfreind is!

Sparty and Friends. I didn’t know Sparty had friends. And they report this as “what we are hearing”. What dribble. Haters want to hate what they can’t have…like a BCS Championship trophy or two.
