Steal of the draft, IMO.
During recruiting, when Caleb Brantley was on his visit to FSU, he went to the UF/FSU game in Tallahassee with his Mom in full Gator gear, and cheered on the Gators. That dude is a Gator through and through and he has my support. Go help the Browns young man, they sure need some serious mojo. Make the Gator Nation proud!

Jimbo Fisher has none, but if he had any integrity he'd fire this a$$ hole. I hope Mac comes out and says something but he's to Barney Fife-ish.

So lawing hasn't coached Brantley in 2 years, but doesn't give him any benefit of the doubt? What a POS. He needs to learn how to put his big boy pants on. Until then, brad lawing has no business leading young men and teaching them how to be a mature adult. Grow up, boy!!

Oh, and lay off the sauce!

Do we know it was Lawing? Confirmation or just spin job?

Who cares?! It's easy to blame him!

Seriously, it makes the most sense, though I think it's just speculation at this point. Now stop interrupting - we're organizing the lynch mob and can't be bothered right now.

Absolutely I am all for going after Lawing...if it was him. The quote said coach at school...you'd think it would be FORMER coach. At school implies it was one of our own. It needs to be sorted out because this sort of thing can't happen. I would love to turn it back around on FSUcks. Current or former coaches shouldn't allow that info to get out. If it was Lawing we can use it to recruit against that SOW. If it was one of ours...that needs addressing too.

I hope these charges are BS and Brantley proves all the doubters wrong. He ain't no 6th rounder.

If a coach at UF bashed Brantley that's low. Even Meyer didn't bashed Hernandez...just said keep a close eye on him.

If it was one of our guys (which I don't believe it is) recruiting will get alot worse!
Didn't harbaugh bash Richard Sherman to teams before the draft? That hasn't seemed to hurt him.

Maybe harbaugh gets away with it because he wears the same clothes every day.

Lol. You guys think the scouts would listen to a known drunk who coaches a rival and hasnt coached the kid since he was a true freshman?

Spin away, Hee Hawers. It wasnt me or my staff, even though the leak said coach not former coach.

Lower than average combine scores and being know for taking plays off didn't help.

Brantley played for two different staffs at Florida, but both said the same thing in regard to how he needed improve his game. Gators coach Jim McElwain repeatedly praised Brantley for his talent, but challenged him to show it on a consistent basis and not take plays off.

At Florida’s pro day, Brantley acknowledged that NFL teams have raised the issue with him.

“Everyone thinks I don’t play hard every play, which I agree with,” he said. “I could have definitely improved on that this year, but that’s probably my biggest knock right now.”

If it was Lawing, given what has taken place with Brantley, it looks like Brad was correct. I doubt Brantley sticks with the Browns.

Kind of messed up Lawing telling NFL teams that since he hasn't been around him for 2 years. Brantley lost about 1.7 million in signing bonus and 2.6 million in total contract value if he could have went in the mid 2nd round. These kids probably should go on total lockdown as far as going to any clubs or messing with females etc. once they declare for the draft.
