Much to the dismay of many, Tebow decides to stay put

The Florida quarterback told a crowd celebrating the school's latest national title Sunday he wants to lead the Gators to another championship.

Tebow thrilled the 40,000 fans by saying: "Oh, by the way, let's do it again. I'm coming back."

Smart decision by him.

That will nip a lot of message board pre-draft arguments in the bud

I'm sure Gator fans are thanking Jesus almost as much as Tim does everyday!

if you are a 3rd round pick why would you leave?

I heard this somewhere else, and agree with it strongly.  Tebow should approach Meyer and tell Meyer to help him develop into a NFL ready QB.  In other words, Tebow will stay another year if Meyer will incorporate some NFL into the Gator offense.  Obvious Meyer won't change his entire offense but I'm sure he could go along way in gettin' Tebow more ready for the NFL, and thus give him a better chance at being an NFL QB.

He will do better in the draft with another year at UF.

And he'll go down as one of the all time college greats if he can get to another NCG or Heisman

Bad news for the SEC and the rest of all the BCS wanna be's.  Florida will now easily be a pre season top 5 ranked team.  Go Gators!!!

Didn't realize there was already a thread on this topic, my bad

I agree and Meyer should help him.

With the 1st selection in this years draft (2010), Tampa Bay selects Tim Tebow, QB, Florida...

Exactly! No reason to go be a little fish in a big pond when you can be the Great White Shark for another year. That guy can be king of the world at Florida for another year and enjoy everything -- and everyone -- that goes along with it. He's probably like a rock star every place he goes in Gainesville.

be jesus in Gainesville or be a 3rd string b-ch in the NFL... decision is easy

FWIW the Gators hired former Michigan quarterbacks coach Scott Loeffler as their new quarterbacks coach.
