A little detail bugged me in Mondays Grad Tab 2008 article. It says …the Gators football team, led by quarterback Tim Tebow, snagged a championship of its own on Jan. 8, 2007. Im not trying to take anything away from Tim Tebow he is a tremendous athlete, a great person and he was a major contributor to our championship. He is now our leader and I look forward to the 2008 season.
However, that championship team was truly led by Chris Leak, the Gators all-time passing leader and the MVP of the national championship game. And it also featured the best defense in the country. Just ask Troy Smith.
