A week ago a commenter mentioned that Urban Meyer's Florida Gators have been in far more legal trouble than Miami lately. Turns out, he was dead right. While we're not ready to wash any of the stain off "The U" yet, the defending national champs have had some serious offseason legal issues. And they just keep getting worse.

Brandon James, a sophomore running back, and Brandon Powell, a sophomore guard on the basketball team, were charged with felony purchase of narcotics and misdemeanor possession of narcotics.
