Florida Being Stuck Waiting on NCAA for 2 Signees' Paperwork is Legitimately Absurd
By Brendan Azoff
At this point in time, college football programs are gearing up for the regular season, with coaches looking at their depth charts and putting together combinations they think will be most effective.
For the Florida Gators and head coach Dan Mullen, that job is not as simple as what others are facing due to the NCAA's inability to finalize two of their recruits' paperwork.

Recruits Dionte Marks and Arjei Henderson should be ready to go at this point for Florida, but an administrative dilemma is holding them up. Coach Mullen said that the two recruits qualify academically and have no problems that would force them to be ineligible, but yet somehow the NCAA has made a mess of the situation.

The Gators have already lost four players, two who transferred and two of which were ineligible recruits, making this recruiting period one they would like to forget. Yet of course, they won't be able to move on from their problems this offseason until the NCAA gets its act together.
