Another side story: we lost out on signing a great football player in Tucker Fredrickson from Ft Lauderdale in the late 1950s or 1960....he was dead set on becoming a vetinarian and UF didnt have a vet school back in the early 60s...so he went with AU...he was the first overall pick in the draft with the NY Giants and played with Del Schofner, Frank Gifford, YA Tittle (the Bald Eagle from LSU)etc etc.
