Posted this on the Rant for their reading pleasure.

From the same site that broke the story of the suspension...

quote:

Insiders tell GN that Florida has had preliminary discussions with the NCAA and that school officials feel relatively good that Will Grier will win his appeal and be eligible at the beginning of the 2016 season.

Monday, UF announced that Grier had been suspended for a year because he tested positive for a performance-enhancing drug. There is basically zero chance he returns this season, but the hope at Florida is that he will be allowed to compete for the entirety of next season. As it is, he would be allowed to return for Game 7 next fall.

Can he partake in practice and spring training? I also wonder if there will be another competition for starter again.

My understanding is Yes, he can practice with the team. Just can't dress out for games or travel...or so I've read.

He can't travel with the team either. Can indeed practice with them.

This would be great news because i don't think that he would recover from missing half of next year and would never play again at UF. this would be a shame as i believe he has the talent to be the next great Florida QB.
