News and Notes for September 17

The trial for the man charged with the stabbing death last fall of University of Connecticut cornerback Jasper Howard, will most like not be held this fall.

Howard was fatally stabbed last October 18 during an on-campus fight. John Lomax III of Bloomfield, Conn., charged with the killing, remains held on $2 million bail.

The delay is due to the time it is taking the prosecution to hand over the evidence to the defense.

With Chris Rainey's arrest this week, it marked a feat coach Urban Meyer surely is not satisfied with.

Rainey became the 27th student-athlete arrested (30th arrest overall) under Meyer's tenure at Florida.

Understandingly upset at those numbers, Meyer declared Thursday that Florida "is not a dirty program. We follow the rules and some guys make mistakes and we've got to correct those mistakes. We follow the rules. We do it the right way at Florida and we have to do a better job with correcting some of the people making mistakes."

Rainey's status with the team remains in limbo, as coach Meyer has not officially declared what he plans to do with the wide receiver.
