Ask Aschoff 11/4
High school seasons all across the country are winding down, which means recruiting will begin to pick up again. Early enrollees will have to start making up their minds and official visits will be heating up. Rivalry games. Early Christmas gifts for teams. This time of year sure does get exciting. On to the questions!
Due to their offensive experience in high school, could Travon Van, Demar Dorsey, Jaylen Watkins, and/or Jordan Haden possibly play WR? On another note, what are … Read More »

Gators got first-hand look at Orson Charles
Oh, what could have been.
As I watched from the Jacksonville Municipal press box Saturday, I couldn’t help but be impressed with one guy in red and black. Most Gator fans have to have been thinking the same thing when they saw Georgia tight end Orson Charles line up opposite the Gators’ defense: Why isn’t this guy wearing different colors? I mean, he did knock over Florida’s 2006 national championship trophy last year. He did say Florida was one of his … Read More »

Ask Aschoff 10/28
Wow, I guess my Wii Tennis skills got more people interested in the mailbag this week! So many questions, so little space. Keep them coming guys. I’d also like to take the time to give props to “Jack,” who got the sarcasm I used in my “Why not recruit the Magnolia State?” blog. But I gotta say, my bragging about my Wii skills isn’t “dorky.” It’s just a fun way to pass the time when you’re dining on lovely cuisine … Read More »

Why not recruit the Magnolia State?
Just call Mississippi “no man’s land” for Florida. The Gators haven’t signed anyone out of the state since the Ron Zook era — and those guys played at community colleges.
What’s so wrong with my home state? Is the talent not there? Well, that can’t be it because a chunk of Mississippi-born folks are playing in the NFL and that’s been the case for a while. Is Florida’s staff concerned about travel expenses? Heck no! These guys fly out to California, … Read More »

Ask Aschoff 10/22
I usually begin each edition of “Ask Aschoff” with a shout out to my readers and the great questions you ask (almost) every week. Things will be different this week.
I figured I’d give myself a pat on the back. You’re only allowed so many in life. If you’ve checked out SI.com’s Stewart Mandel’s mailbag, which is probably the best around, you’ll notice that the killer Wii skills I mention in my bio have become national news. Well, sort of. I … Read More »

The latest recruiting rankings
The new Rivals.com team recruiting rankings came out Monday and yet again Florida fell in the rankings. After having one of the top classes in the country a few months ago, Florida fell to No. 5 and is now sitting behind dreaded TENNESSEE at No. 7. Looks like Lane Kiffin is getting the best of the Gators after all.
According to Rivals, of the 17 Gator commits thus far, one is a five-star (Matt Elam), 11 are four-stars and five are … Read More »

WR commit happy with UF offense
Fans might be stressing over Florida’s conservative offense, but wide receiver commit Solomon Patton said he’s fine with what he’s seen so far. And he’s a receiver for crying out loud.
“I still like the stuff they’re doing now,” Patton said. “They’re still getting the fast people the ball. I know when we get down there and they get some more receivers, they’ll start spreading the ball around like they used to.”
The Mobile, Ala., Murphy receiver said he’s heard what everyone … Read More »

About This Blog »
Edward Aschoff grew up in beautiful Oxford, Miss., but spurned Ole Miss in 2004 to spend his college years at the University of Florida studying journalism. During his 4 1/2 years buried away in Weimer Hall, he wrote for a few publications and Web sites. The Sun gave him a chance in July of 2007 and he’s been pumping out stories mostly about UF sports ever since. You can catch Edward either at some sort of Gator sporting event, in the gym or any court/field involving a ball and competition. He grew up playing and watching soccer, but now prefers college football and challenges anyone to a game of NCAA football on Playstation 3. He was named Media Wii Tennis Champion after dominating everyone — most notably Sports Illustrated’s Stewart Mandel — during his coverage of the 2008 national championship in Miami.
