For now three Florida players are battling to see who enters the season as the Gators starting center. However, could a fourth lineman enter the mix for the job when he returns to health?

After considering leaving the program as a freshman last year, running back Adarius Lemons decided to stick it out to perhaps become a wild-card in the Florida Gators backfield.

In order to turn things around offensively, Florida head coach Dan Mullen wants to force feed opponents an up-tempo offense featuring a physical run-game.

They may be teammates, brothers in arms who wear basically the same gear to practice each day other than the fact that one side is in white while the other is in blue, but that doesn't mean that the running backs and linebackers don't go after each other hard each and every day.

Even as bad as the Florida offense was as a unit last season, perhaps no particular position helped to highlight that ineptitude more than the tight ends. With the new coaching staff hoping to utilize them more, the question has to be asked, are they up for the challenge?

The drama playing out in College Park as a result of the tragic death of a Maryland football player earlier this summer has brought player safety to the forefront nation wide. It was already priority No. 1 at Florida.

Dan Mullen wants to name a starting quarterback more than you want to hear who it will be - saying he hopes to know who it is after Monday's scrimmage.

During Wednesday's post-practice media opportunity Florida head coach Dan Mullen said he isn't ready to name a starting quarterback yet, but could do so soon.
