    Urban Meyer is hardly sinking Florida's program.

    Well, obviously he is certainly winning, but I was talking about recruiting the type of players that become cancers on a team. If he keeps recruiting players who get arrested at the rate quoted above, he may sink the program in other ways. Calipari wins, too, then leaves a program in time for it to get sanctioned.

    That is one the areas I am most impressed with CLM. He seems to have a knack for attracting high caliber players, but is fairly selective in offers to players who also have high character. I know there have been some off the field incidents, but I believe most of those involved players recruited prior to his arrival, and he has certainly purged problem players irrespective of their talent level (i.e. RP).

    About Les Miles...I couldn't agree more. We'll still have our normal share of problems...But he'll deal with it like a parent would...with compassion.

    so, there have been only 3 arrests involving players over the last 3 recruiting classes. most of the 24 arrests were players leftover from the Zook era and CUMs first class (how about that coaches abbreviation - CUM:) sounds like they have improved the quality of character of their players if you use # of arrests as a gauge:)
