Posted by Orange and Blue on 1/5/2002, 10:26 pm The Sun reported in Saturday's edition that cornerback Lito Sheppard has decided to try the NFL and told Florida's assistant coaches he was leaving. Offensive tackle Mike Pearson cleaned out his Florida locker on Friday and signed with IMG. Wide receiver Jabar Gaffney said he has decided to leave because of Spurrier's decision and met on Saturday with agent Michael Huyghue in Jacksonville. Huyghue resigned from his position as senior vice president for football operations with the Jacksonville Jaguars earlier this season to join agent David Dunn.
From the Gainesville Sun:What the new coach will inherit is a team that could have been really good. But Spurrier's departure hasn't been the only one from Florida's 2002 football team.
