Since Urban Meyer's leave of absence officially began about a week ago, there has been a great deal of speculation about where he is and what he's doing.

Is he on vacation with his family, possibly on a cruise? Is he in a medical clinic dealing with his health issues? Is he resting at his lake house?

Well, he's actually right here in Gainesville.

On Friday, he was at the University of Florida's Mark Bostic Golf Course for his tournament, the Urban Meyer Scramble for Kids. Meyer is in a group, with Sister Hazel's Andrew Copeland, ready to play.

"I feel good, real good," Meyer said. "Being out here for this tournament is real important."

Meyer said he will be ready for the start of spring football practice March 17.

"I'll be there," said Meyer, who praised the work of interim head coach Steve Addazio and his other assistants for the No. 1 ranking of the 2010 recruiting class.

This is the second appearance he's made for the tournament. He attended and spoke at a dinner Wednesday night at the Touchdown Terrace.
