			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.harvinzone.com/images/percy-harvin-1.jpg" alt="Percy Harvin" width="166" height="222" />Total Pro Sports &#8211; The defending National Champions will be without arguably their most talented player on offense, <strong>Percy Harvin</strong> has decided to turn pro. In a season where he did it all for the Florida Gators, Harvin made the decision just hours prior to the Thursday deadline. His presence on the field will be greatly missed, the 5-11, 195 pound speedster out ran defenses his entire career and will now try to do it in the NFL.</p>
<p>The question will be can he stay healthy in the big league? Harvin makes up for his size with his speed, agility, and elusiveness, but he is going to find out that the game is alot faster in the NFL. Harvin has been bothered by nagging injuries throughout his college career, from hamstring troubles to ankle injuries. His dynamic ability, however,  will probably cover up the flaws that he has in his game, teams will be willing to take a shot at a player that can score from anywhere on the field. Harvin lined up at various positions on offense including quarterback, wide receiver and running back, he also has the ability to return kick-offs and punts.</p>
<p><span id="more-2586"></span>The heart of the Gators defense <strong>Brandon Spikes</strong> is heading back to Gainesville, a decision that was prompted by Tim Tebow&#8217;s decision to return for another season. The junior linebacker led the Gators with 93 tackles last season to go along with 8 sacks and 4 interceptions. At 6-3, 245 pounds Spikes is a big specimen and would have been a late 1st round or early second round draft pick.</p>
<p>Brandon Spikes could have welcomed the paychecks he would have received from the NFL as he also has to deal with family issues. The decision for Spikes to return was not an easy one for him and his family but this decision will definitely aid him in the long run.<br />

I&#8217;m coming back.&#8221;</em></p>
<blockquote><p><em>The gathering of Gator fans, which had been chanting &#8220;one more year&#8221; throughout the ceremony, erupted in its biggest cheer of the afternoon and Tebow was met with hugs from happy teammates and coaches.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>It was music to the Gators&#8217; fans ears, they were hoping that their leader and starting quarterback would utter those magic words.  Tim &#8220;Superman&#8221; Tebow will return to the Florida Gators and look to accomplish something no other Florida Gator quarterback has done and that is to lead his team to an undefeated season and a third National Championship.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I just love being here. I love being a Gator. I feel loyal to this place, and I want to stick it out and finish what I started here.</em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;It was (a tough decision). I prayed about it a long time, talked to a lot of coaches and a lot of people involved with the NFL and Coach (Urban) Meyer for a long time. It was a tough decision. But I am having so much fun here and I want to enjoy it one more year.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote>
<p><span id="more-2518"></span>Tim Tebow had a sensational season, statistically it was not his best, however, he accomplished so much more in the grand scheme of things.  He will also be looking to achieve something only one other player in college football history has done and that is to win multiple Heisman trophies.  <strong>Archie Griffen</strong>, the only multiple Heisman trophy winner in the history of the award, dating back to 1935, will be surprised to see his accomplishment reached by another player.  <a title="Sam Bradford To Declare For The NFL Draft" href="http://www.totalprosports.com/blog/index.php/2009/01/sam-bradford-to-enter-nfl-draft/" target="_self">With the likes of </a><strong><a title="Sam Bradford To Declare For The NFL Draft" href="http://www.totalprosports.com/blog/index.php/2009/01/sam-bradford-to-enter-nfl-draft/" target="_self">Sam Bradford</a>, Drew Stafford, Pat White, Chase Daniel, Knowshon Moreno, Shonn White</strong> and many other fantastic athletes declaring for the NFL, there is a strong possibility that <a title="Wearing A Cast Guarantees You The Heisman" href="http://www.totalprosports.com/blog/index.php/2008/12/wearing-a-cast-guarantees-you-the-heisman/" target="_self">Tebow may be a repeat winner of the Heisman Trophy</a>.</p>
<p><a title="Urban Meyer Makes History" href="http://www.totalprosports.com/blog/index.php/2009/01/urban-meyer-makes-history/" target="_self"><strong>Urben Meyer</strong> may be as thrilled</a> as anyone to hear that Tim Tebow  is returning and that this upcoming season will not be a learning year for the Florida Gators.  Florida had only three seniors on the field for the Championship game against the Sooners and this years success should carry over into the upcoming season.</p>
<p>The Gators are still awaiting the decisions of two other talented juniors, Percy Harvin and Brandon Spikes who have not officially disclosed their decisions yet and will have before this Thursday&#8217;s deadline to decide.</p>
<p>3 National Championships and 2 Heisman Trophies, it&#8217;s something athletes only dream of!</p>
