I'm assuming you guys are lightly following this story, this is insane. Florida is now down 10 players for their season opener stemming from a scheme by them to buy computers and other expensive items at the campus bookstore on their student accounts, then flipping them for cash. What was supposed to be a great OOC game to start the season is looking more and more like a cake walk for Michigan, unfortunately.

Reportedly more suspensions are incoming.

Dumb azzes.

This falls into the "How did you think you were not gonna get caught?" category, in addition to the "Cheat'n-azz-mutha-f-ers" category.

The two most recent suspended were ratted out by a teammate. Snitches don't make for very good locker room chemistry. This may be fester the entire season for the Gators.

Good for the teammates!

They did the right thing.

Have full rides to a great university....and still want more. Pathetic and sad.

I share that sentiment. But I guarantee that there are players, coaches, admin & boosters that don't and have a win at all costs mentality. Some of them probably still think that Aaron Hernandez was a good dude.

It opened as UM favored by 3, and on average, set for 5. It's on neutral territory. So I'm assuming these players weren't too far up the food chain?

2 stud receivers and one starting defensive lineman are among the 10. I believe the others are all reserves.

The quarterback situation was going to be a mess regardless.

The guy suspended last night is their starting RB.

I stand corrected. I thought he was another WR.

You are correct that a backup WR was also suspended.
