Looks like he and his team are now under investigation for taking money and accepting gifts. I saw them play last year and they are amazing. Most of the kids are UF verbals as well. Got this from ESPN.

Rainey, Lakeland under investigation
The Miami Herald reports Rainey received a bag full of jerseys and a wad of cash on two separate occasions, a violation that has prompted a full-scale investigation by the Florida High School Athletic Association.
"I didn't even count it," Rainey told the Herald. "When I walk around, people are buying me food, giving me money. I'm like, 'damn, I'm glad I'm Chris Rainey.' It's real nice to be me."
If the investigation proves Rainey's comments true, Lakeland High School would face sanctions, including forfeitures of games and restrictions placed on their program.

If the quotes are true, this is the dumbest kid on earth.

Maybe Urban's emphasis on academics will teach these kids to be a little brighter. :rolleyes:

I mean they do have to take a repeatable for credit football course, which is an extended practice, every semester. The academic climate in Gainesville must be unbearable.

I don't know where I heard this but I heard that Rex Grossman took a Stress Class at UF where he took a pillow to class and got to sleep.

I think Grossman himself said that in an interview somewhere but I am not sure. How would you grade a nap? "Your hand to head placement while you sleep is beautiful."

That would be the easiest class ever, to fail you would have to have a sleeping disorder lol

I saw there's an investigation going on at his high school, but nothing will happen to him or Florida.

As a Bears fan, I'm surprised he didn't turn his pillow over to another student.

Certainly nothing happens to Florida unless he did take something and it can be tied to a Fl booster. Hell Smith took envelopes of money from a boster and will win the Heisman soon, what would the toothless NCAA do here over some clothes? They are too busy in court fighting North Dakota over injin names and images.
