Florida quarterback DJ Lagway's health remains a concern as the Gators' Aug. 30 season opener looms. Lagway's workload will be modified for a while because of a left calf injury as he also continues to progress from an offseason shoulder issue. UF's fortunes likely hinge on the availability of the sophomore, who turned 20 a day after the Gators checked in at No. 15 in the preseason AP Top 25 featuring 10 SEC teams - six of the Florida opponents. During the latest Swamp Things, Edgar and Mark run through the Gators' lengthy injury report, their tenuous quarterback situation and a taxing 2025 schedule.

Florida quarterback DJ Lagway is throwing in front of reporters for the first time since the Gasparilla Bowl, a positive step as he returns from shoulder, core and calf injuries. Lagway's health could be the key to Billy Napier's fourth season, though the embattled coach now has a roster better equipped to handle setbacks and able to support whoever lines up at QB. Napier hopes he doesn't have to put his team's depth to the test against a schedule featuring seven teams ranked in the coaches' poll, five of them ahead of the No. 17 Gators. During the latest Swamp Things, Mark and Edgar have a thorough, at times passionate, discussion about the most promising Florida squad in some time.

Florida opens fall camp Wednesday as Billy Napier begins his fourth season in Gainesville. Napier has put together the Gators best roster in years, but all eyes will be on sophomore quarterback DJ Lagway as he returns from a shoulder injury. While Lagway's health status remains a mystery, coach Todd Golden revealed transfer guard Boogie Fland is recovering from sports hernia surgery as the reigning national champions conclude summer workouts. Golden spoke to reporters at the unveiling of a portrait by UF linebacker James Bates, who has painted one for each of the school's 20 national championship coaches. During the latest Swamp Things, Edgar and Mark put the finishing touches on basketball and offer a quick sketch of Napier's 2025 Gators.

SEC media picked Florida to finish sixth a season after Billy Napier's team was picked to finish 12th in the expanded 16-team conference. 2024 newcomer Texas is expected to win the league, ahead of Georgia. Each is on UF's daunting 2025 schedule, but Napier is confident his team can go toe-to-toe with anyone. A big reason is sophomore QB DJ Lagway, who claimed a clean bill of health at Media Days but was left off the three All-SEC teams. During the latest Swamp Things, Mark and Edgar break it all down heading into the weekend. SEC media poll (0:00) DJ Lagway behind (8:07) Wide range of expectations (13:25) Schedule strength (15:02) Napier more comfort, confident (23:00) Longhorns' Arch Manning (25:40) Playoff argument (30:00) Rating coaches (34:27) Men's basketball (39:15)

All-American guard Walter Clayton Jr. was recognized one final time after he spearheaded the Gators' national title, earning SEC Male Athlete of the Year honors. The Lake Wales native became the record 14th UF athlete to earn the distinction, including three in a row, and first SEC men's basketball player since 2012. Clayton is onto his career's next chapter, playing in the NBA summer league along with former backcourt mates Will Richard and Alijah Martin. Meanwhile, 7-9 19-year-old Olivier Rioux just wrapped up his summer with Canada's U-19 as he aims for even a minor role with the reigning national champs. Football, though, is on everyone's mind, with SEC Media Days set for next week, including a Day 3 appearance by Billy Napier, DJ Lagway and the Gators. During the latest Swamp Things, Edgar and Mark weigh the key storylines at SECMD, discuss Clayton's latest honor and send well wishes to Red Panda.

Florida's national title-winning guards Walter Clayton, Alijah Martin and Will Richard are headed to the NBA after the trio was among 60 players drafted. Selected No. 18, Clayton improved his value as much as just about anyone, while Martin's stock also rose considerably — to pick No. 39 — during his one season with the Gators. Thomas Haugh and Alex Condon now push to become 2026 first-rounders themselves. Each first cashed in before the July 1 arrival of the House v. NCAA settlement aims to bring structure and transparency to student-athlete compensation after a four-year period when NIL legislation quickly became pay-for-play. During the latest Swamp Things, Mark and Edgar squeeze in a final podcast before turning the page on June.
