Former Florida cornerback Joe Haden and former Union County star running back C.J. Spiller are among the latest players to accept an invitation from the NFL to attend the draft next Thursday and Friday in New York. Gator legend Tim Tebow has an invite, but has yet to make a decision.
Rotoworld.com, a site that specializes in fantasy sports news, reported Monday afternoon that Tebow has decided not to be in New York for the draft, but we could not confirm that with Tebow’s agent or anyone in the Tebow family Tuesday afternoon.
Tebow indicated several weeks ago that he might decide to play it low-key for the draft, possibly going fishing with his father like Wisconsin offensive lineman Joe Thomas did a few years ago. But at this point, there is nothing official from the Tebow camp.
Two other prominent quarterbacks still haven’t accepted an invitation from the NFL, either — Texas’ Colt McCoy and Notre Dame’s Jimmy Clausen.
Well, at least he will be fishing. Not me! I will be impatiently waiting to hear what his NFL status will be so I can begin to collect jerseys,caps,etc. from that team in order to support Tebow, again.
I hope they do him right.
GO TEBOW!! GO GATORS!!!
Wake up Jags…He will put rear ends in the seats with any position he plays. Oh, by the way he will play. DRAFT TEBOW!
If TT was a guaranteed 1st rounder, he’d be there…don’t blame him for not going since he’ll probably be drafted in the 4th round.
I wouldn’t be shocked if he did just that – went fishing with his dad or something similar. It would fit the Tebow style we know. With him, I think his time will come in another year or two. The draft is just a formality. He’ll shine in time.
I really hope Tebow goes to Jacksonville, but I’m sure those idiots in the front office won’t get it done and we draft someone else. It’s going to hard to route against Tim.
On 1010xl this morning they said on 13k seats need to be sold to avoid blackout. Put simply TEBOW=NO BLACKOUTS.

I hope two years from now they publish how all these draftees do once they start playing. I predict Tim Tebow’s name will be near the top as far as impact for their respective teams.
Think about this..How many passing touchdowns vs interceptions did Tebow have in three years with SEC competition. Can any of the other QBS match that statistic….oh bye-the-way throw in fifty some rushing touchdowns on top of all the passing records!! Tebow goes in the first round!
I THINK TIM TEBOW IS THE BEST QB THE GATORS HAVE EVER
PRODUCED. IF HE STAYS HEALTHY HE WILL SHINE AS A PRO QB
i think he would do good at jacksonvill he can help them win game
