The nations number one party school in all its glory

Fucking Knuckle Draggers

A day after the University of Florida was named the nation's top party school in a national survey, a Boca Raton woman sued two UF fraternity brothers for secretly videotaping a sexual encounter she had with one of them.

Lauren Highley, 20, accuses Ben Farias, 21, of Delray Beach, and Kyle Kraft, 20, of Winter Haven, along with the Gainesville chapter of Delta Tau Delta fraternity, of invasion of privacy, outrage, fraud and negligence.

According to Highley's complaint filed Tuesday, she and Farias went to his room at the fraternity house on Nov. 5, 2006, and engaged in "consensual sexual foreplay and were in a state of complete undress."

Unbeknownst to Highley, Farias' fraternity brother, Kraft, was also in the room, armed with a video camera and hiding beneath a blanket on another bed. Kraft and Farias conspired to videotape the encounter without Highley's consent, according to the suit.

1. Despite January arrest, Wilson returns to Gators practice
<snip>

"Former Pompano Beach Ely standout Ronnie Wilson rejoined the University of Florida football team Monday, more than one year after being kicked out of school for shooting an assault rifle into the air near campus.

Through a public records search, The Miami Herald has learned that Wilson was arrested again on Jan. 6 and charged with misdemeanor possession of marijuana, according to court records. The arrest, which should have been a violation of Wilson's probation terms, went unnoticed by the state attorney's office in Gainesville, according to spokesperson Spencer Mann.

"We deal with thousands of arrests each year," Mann said. "So if one gets by, that's not uncommon."

The marijuana charge was dropped in Alachua County court on April 3. The terms of Wilson's probation end on April 21, 2009.

Florida coach Urban Meyer said Monday that he was aware of Wilson's arrest in January and also said that Wilson wasn't officially back on the team yet.

"He's not back," Meyer said. "I'm still evaluating him. I have a long history of giving guys opportunities. A lot of thought went into it, though."

3. Hiding beneath a blanket on another bed?
I think I might have noticed that.

Also, and this is a bit awkward, but that doesn't sound like a very adventurous collegiate encounter. The gals I tussled with at USC made damn sure we bounced on and off every nearby bed.

5. Gator legend arrested
<snip>

"The Times' Thomas Kaplan is reporting today that John Reaves, a former University of Florida star quarterback who graduated as the all-time passing leader in NCAA history, has been arrested on a cocaine possession charge. Details of his arrest were not immediately available, but jail records show the 58-year-old was taken into custody by the Tampa Police Department on Wednesday night.

Reaves, a former first-round NFL draft pick who went to Robinson High School and was an All-American at UF from 1969 to 1971, has battled drug problems in the past. By the time he was in the NFL, his life, he once recalled to Sports Illustrated, "was literally saturated with drugs and alcohol."

But the former standout would turn his life around, getting treatment and counseling and embracing religion. He found life beyond football, too, building a successful real estate business in Tampa.

Reaves, a former Florida high school player of the year, was a first-round draft pick of the Philadelphia Eagles in 1972. But while he would play professionally for more than a decade, including a three-year stint in the United States Football League with the Tampa Bay Bandits, Reaves would never achieve the stardom he gained in high school and college play.

Reaves coached under Steve Spurrier at UF in the 1990s and also worked at South Carolina and Cornell. His son David is now the quarterbacks coach under Spurrier at South Carolina, and his daughter Layla is the wife of Oakland Raiders coach Lane Kiffin."
