I forget the kid's name, but there was a bog article in the Palm Beach Post yesterday about it. In fact, it seemed to me that the entire sports section was dedicated to bashing Meyer.

Also, "bog" should be "big," above. Stupid tiny keyboard.

name is Matt Elam - big time recruit who has been wavering for a while and a big time prima donna in needing his hand held. However, it may not be over for him yet...we'll see.

What Jimmy said. Dudes been wavering for a while now and it probably isn't over. But I'm kind of over the kid.

Thanks guys - it does sound like Elam is having a temper tantrum. I hope he enjoys mediocrity as halF asS U. Our team doesn't need these types of prima donnas, just ask University of Tennessee star player Nu'Kessee Richardson (sp?).

Yeah, I saw this on the ESPN ticker on NYE and then I saw in HB's screening that he was still waivering. Have fun losing at FSU dood.

Not sure I want this kind of attention whore at my school.

USUALLY kids like this do not end up at UF and that's a GOOD thing! Meh, the only thing I like from that article is that Meyer told him something that made him change his mind which was probably that he (Meyer) would be back.

Wow, the comments were pretty wild. Sounds like a kid that is too full of himself.

He wants to be a difference maker? He ought to go play division III.
