Miami game has big recruiting implications

When the Gators and Hurricanes meet in The Swamp Saturday, more than just a game will be on the line.
It looks like UF will have its full complement of players for Saturday's matchup against Miami.
Four months ago, Matt Patchan didn't know if he would ever play football again.
Nothing is 100 percent certain yet, but it's looking more and more like UF wide receiver Percy Harvin will play against Miami on Saturday.
The last time the Gators took the field without Urban Meyer roaming the sidelines was the 2004 Chick-Fil-A Bowl.
UF's secondary went into the season opener against Hawaii hoping to prove it was better than the unit that finished No. 98 in the nation in pass defense last year. It's still too early to tell how good the group is, but outscoring the Warriors and quarterback Tim Tebow isn't a bad start.
It looked like a punt that wouldn't be returned, bouncing twice on the grass.
The Gators played a nearly flawless game on Saturday, but if there was one flaw to be found, it was in those tiny, yellow flags that flew all around the stadium.
The idea that UF would put up eight touchdowns against Hawaii wasn't all that far-fetched, but doing so while quarterback Tim Tebow scored just once didn't seem quite right.
Urban Meyer wasn't kidding when he said opponents can't afford making a mistake against his running backs.

It appears that QB Tim Tebow is going to need a few less ice packs this season.
With two days until their first game against Hawaii, the Gators solidified their kicker position and narrowed down the starting defensive tackle candidates.
