About Jillian »

Well hello fellow sports fans!! I'm glad you dropped by! Just a little about me, I'm a 28yr old University of Florida graduate. (GO GATORS!) I live and breathe orange and blue. I currently work for in sports advertising and am a contract writer for Sunsports.com. Don't underestimate my gender as a weakness, I have been a football girl for as long as I can walk. I'm a Florida fan first, an SEC fan second, and I have a great appreciation for college sports in it's entirety. I' m always open to constructive criticism and new ideas. Please feel free to add me.

P.S. Any Florida/Alabama fans going to the big game in December feel free to get at me, there will be tons of us showing love down there would love to meet some fellow writers and drink some brew!

Not to add any fuel to the fire, Jillian.... Meyer DID say he wasn't going anywhere (Utah), then he just up and split..... As long as Tebow's qb, Urban Meyer will be the coach.... Oh, crap, Tebow's a SR. this year, isn't he? Best of luck!
