Redshirt junior Andre Caldwell returned to the unit this season after he fractured the femur bone inhis right leg while returning the second-half kickoff against Tennessee in 2005 causing him to missthe remainder of the season. At the time of his injury, he was second among Gator receiversaveraging 14.8 yards per game.

Under the guidance of position coach Billy Gonzales, the leading receiver on the squad has equaledor set a new school record for receptions and for the last five years the leading receiver on the teamhas averaged nearly 80 receptions a season (79.8).

OFFENSIVE LINEFlorida has started every game of the 2006 season with the following at offensive line: LT Phil

Trautwein; LG Jim Tartt; C Steve Rissler; RG Drew Miller; RT Carlton Medder.

The offensive line has allowed eight sacks through the first four games. Last season, UF hadallowed 16 after four games. The UCF game was the first time under Coach Meyer that the offensiveline did not allow a sack in a game.

Only one player (Jim Tartt) on the offensive line entered the 2006 season with a start at their currentposition. Tartt started the Kentucky game at left guard last season.

In University of Florida records dating back to 1980, Florida’s 17 combined starts on the offensiveline entering the 2006 season are the lowest since that time.

Florida has no fifth-year seniors up front and only two fourth-year players (Steve Rissler andCarlton Medder).

Florida starting center Steve Rissler and starting right guard Drew Miller both attended Sarasota’sRiverview High School. In research dating back to 1982, there have been no two members ofFlorida’s starting offensive line during a season from the same high school.

Four members of the starting offensive line for the season opener were from the state of Florida.In the last 11 seasons, four members of the starting day offensive line have been from the state ofFlorida on seven occasions.

THE DEFENSEThe Gators have allowed just 0.6 yards per rush in SEC action this year and just 14 yards per

game in league play.

The Florida defense recorded a season-high six sacks against Kentucky, more than doubling itstotal for the season entering the game (four). The amount tied for the most sacks by the Gatorsunder head coach Urban Meyer (vs. Miss. State, 2005).

Florida has not allowed a fourth-quarter touchdown this season and has allowed only one rushingTD this year. UF is one of 23 teams to allow one or less nationally and one of four in the SEC.

The 34 points UF has allowed through four games is a low for any Urban Meyer-coached team.

Florida limited Kentucky to 39 rushing yards, which was the third-lowest total in the Rich Brooksera. The Gator defense did not give up a play of 20-or-more yards to the Wildcats.

Florida’s defense limited Tennessee to -11 yards on 23 carries. The total was the lowest rushingperformance in the 168 games Phillip Fulmer has coached in Knoxville. The total ranks as theseventh-lowest allowed by a Florida defense in school history and the fifth-lowest to an SEC team.

# 12 - CHRIS LEAKSenior • 6-0 • 207

Charlotte, N.C. (Independence)

Career:Games (starts): 41 (37)

True senior who is in his fourth year as the starter under center for the Gators.

Tossed a pair of touchdown passes against Kentucky, giving him 77 in his career and moving him into a tie for second place on the school’s all-time list with Rex Gross-man (2000-02). Is second in the category of most touch-

downs responsible for in his Gator tenure, as Leak has been involved in 87 touchdowns, 77 passing and 10 rushing. He passed Rex Grossman’s total of 83 TD (77 passing and six rushing) against Tennessee and has his sights set upon Danny Wuerffel’s school-re-cord total of 122 (114 pass, eight run).

Leak’s 733 completions and 1,203 at-tempts are now fi rst and his 9,337 passing yards rank second on UF’s career list. Has thrown for over 200 yards 29 times

during his career to rate third all-time on the Gators and has eclipsed the 300-yard plateau seven times.

Is 26-11 as a starter, including a 17-8 mark in SEC games, and is 7-7 versus top-15 opponents.

His six rushing TDs in 2005 tied for the second-best single-season total by a UF quarterback with Jesse Palmer (2000). Jimmy Fisher’s total of eight in 1976 remains the record.

Became the fi rst quarterback since Ker-win Bell (1985-86) to defeat Florida State in consecutive seasons.

Tied Danny Wuerffel’s Florida record with six touchdown passes against South Carolina last year. Leak’s rushing total of 67 yards against

Vanderbilt in ‘05 was the highest for a Florida QB since Terry LeCount gained 108 yards against Georgia on Nov. 5, 1977. Established a school record with 17 con-

secutive completions in last year’s season opener versus Wyoming, surpassing Steve Spurrier’s mark that was set during the 1966 campaign. Earned honorable mention All-America

recognition and was second-team All-SEC in 2004. His 45 touchdowns over his fi rst two sea-

sons were the second-highest total in school history behind Rex Grossman (55). Ranked fi rst in the SEC in total offense

(273.5), passing yards per game (266.4) and

touchdowns (29) as a sophomore. Had four of the top seven passing perfor-

mances in the conference in ’04. Earned honorable mention All-America

recognition and was second-team All-SEC in 2004. Was the SEC Freshman of the Year in

2003 and was picked as The Sporting News’ SEC Offensive Freshman of the Year.

Also collected the Touchdown Club of Columbus Freshman Player of the Year honor. Went 6-3 as a freshman starter, the high-

est winning percentage of a rookie QB in the country, and was 6-1 against SEC teams. Ranked second in SEC history for a true

freshman in yards (2,167), completions (168) and touchdowns (14). Became the second Gator freshman QB

to defeat three top-15 teams during his rookie season, lifting the Orange and Blue to wins over No. 4 Georgia, No. 6 LSU and No. 9 Florida State. Kerwin Bell had accomplished the feat in 1984 (No. 8 Georgia, No. 11 Au-burn and No. 12 Florida State).

2006 Season:Games (starts): 4 (4) Is 70-of-110 on the season for 1,066 yards

and has thrown 12 touchdown passes in the fi rst four games with four interceptions. Ranks fi rst in the SEC in passing yards

(1,066), passing average per game (266.5 yds.) total offense (257.8 yds.), pass effi cien-cy (173.8) and touchdown passes (12). He is tied for fi rst in the nation in TD passes and is fourth in the country in pass effi ciency.

Leak’s 12 touchdown passes through four games are already over half of the 20 he threw for last season. He did not throw his 10th TD pass until the seventh game of last season. In records dating back to 1955, he has

thrown for more or matched the UF leader in passing touchdowns from 24 of 50 years. Was 15-of-26 for 267 yards and threw

two TD passes in the 26-7 victory over Kentucky. Connected with Jemalle Cornelius on a

33-yard fl ea fl icker 2:44 into the game and found Cornelius Ingram from six yards out in the fourth quarter. Passed Shane Matthews’ previous school

records for passing attempts and comple-tions against the ‘Cats. With the win at Tennessee, Leak became

the only starting quarterback in school history to win in Knoxville, against Georgia twice, in Tallahassee, in Baton Rouge and win a bowl game.

Leak won his fourth-straight game as a starting quarterback over a Top-25 team with the 21-20 win at Tennessee. The streak

Quarterbacksis the longest of his career. He also joined Danny Wuerffel as the only two quarterbacks in school history to defeat UT, UGA and FSU fi ve-straight times. Finished 15-of-25 for 199 yards and threw

three touchdown passes in the 21-20 win at Tennessee, 21 yards to Jemalle Cornelius, four yards to Dallas Baker and 21 yards to Baker. Engineered an eight-play, 65-yard drive

that was completed with a 21-yard scoring toss to Baker with 6:30 left to put the Gators ahead to stay. Leak’s three TD passes marked the 11th

time in his 40 career games he has thrown for three or more touchdowns in a game. Established a career high with 352 yards

on 19-of-29 passing in the 42-0 win over UCF. Fired four touchdowns to three different

receivers and was 13-for-19 in the fi rst half for 265 yards and three scores. Gained 16 yards rushing on four carries

against the Golden Knights, including a season-best carry of nine yards. Leak and Tim Tebow combined to com-

plete passes to 11 different receivers. Opened the season by going 21-for-30

for 248 yards and tossed three touchdown passes in the 34-7 win over Southern Miss. Eleven of his 21 completions went for fi rst

downs and he connected with seven different Gator receivers. Completed his fi rst two passing attempts

of the season to DeShawn Wynn (eight yards) and Percy Harvin (three yards) before throwing an interception. Did not throw a pick until the fi fth game of last year at Alabama. Engineered scoring drives of 87, 36, 71

and 82 yards that resulted in touchdowns. Named to the Watch Lists for the Walter

Camp Football Foundation Player of the Year Award and the Maxwell Award.
