Looks like Muschamp announced at the Jax Gator Club that he is bringing another former Gator and NFL veteran, Mike Peterson, aboard.

I really like this approach; the players and prospects will love it.

@ESPNFlorida: #Gators coach Will Muschamp said at Jax Gator Club speaking stop that former UF LB Mike Peterson will be working with team in fall.

Former Florida quarterback Chris Leak has reconnected with the Gators.


Leak, who helped lead UF to the national championship in his senior season in 2006, has joined Will Muschamp's staff as a quality control coach, with the plan to launch a career in coaching.

As a quality control coach, Leak will not be assisting on the practice field. He will have duties in the coaches' office, including breaking down film.

Leak took over as the Gators' starting quarterback during his true freshman season in 2003. In UF's victory over Ohio State in the BCS Championship game his senior season, Leak was named the game's most valuable offensive player.

Leak is not the only new face around the football complex.

Two members of the 2013 recruiting class — offensive tackle Trenton Brown and safety Marcell Harris — are enrolled in classes for the Summer A semester, which began Monday.
Brown, a junior college transfer, and Harris, a top-rated safety prospect, are expected to compete for possible early playing time when camp opens in August.

Gator Softball Wins SEC Regular-Season Title, is No. 1 Seed for 2013 SEC Softball Tournament

Gainesville, Fla.

The No. 2/3 Florida softball squad clinched the regular-season Southeastern Conference Title Sunday, the fourth SEC Championship in Gator softball history, and solidified the No. 1 seed in the upcoming SEC Softball Tournament May 8-11 in Lexington, Ky. Florida will play the winner of Alabama/Texas A&M to open SEC Tournament play May 9.

The Gators (18-6, .750) edged out the Tennessee Lady Vols (16-6, .727) for their fourth league title in school history (1998, 2008, 2009, 2013), the third under Florida head coach Tim Walton, while also claiming the SEC Eastern Division for the sixth time (1998, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013).

Softball’s regular-season title Sunday marked the eighth SEC title for the Florida athletics program this year, tying a school and league record for most in a season as Florida previously accomplished the feat twice, along with Georgia once.

The Orange and Blue wrapped up regular-season play this weekend with a series win at South Carolina, finishing the 2013 conference slate as the only team in the league to win all eight conference sets, including sweeps over both Arkansas and Ole Miss. UF is 49-7 overall on the campaign as it heads to the postseason next week in Lexington, just one win shy of the fifth 50-win season in Florida history.

Sadly, David Lee will miss the remainder of the playoffs with Golden State after finishing second on the Warriors in scoring (18.5 points per game), leading them in rebounding (11.2 per game), and earning a spot on the All-Star team in 2013. Lee had 10 points and 14 rebounds when he tore his right hip flexor in the Warriors first game against Denver. Damn shame for a guy who averaged a double-double on the season.

Corey Brewer, SF, Denver Nuggets - 29 points, 2 rebounds, and 3 assists in 2 games.

Chandler Parsons, SF, Houston Rockets - 26 points and 10 rebounds in 2 games.

Matt Bonner, PF, San Antonio Spurs - 20 points, 10 rebounds, 3 steals, 1 assist, and 1 block in 2 games.
