Meyer said, "“Our entire focus right now is on preparing for our biggest game of the year against South Carolina. For anyone to think that I or anyone on our staff may have leaked information about private student records to the media doesn't know us very well. It's a ridiculous claim and simply not true.”
Meyer has no reason to break federal law leaking info about Cam. Greg Doyel and Thayer Evans are tabloid columnists at best. They put their stories out seeking national attention.
I know this much...
Newton did not leave because Tebow came back. Cam bought a laptop out of a guy's car trunk. $150 for a $1000 laptop. He knew it was fishy, but he did it. He logged on to UF's network, and the ID of the laptop came back flagged because it was stolen and they tracked down the laptop username C. Newton. Cam was suspended indefinitely from the team by Meyer. We knew he had a scheduled meeting with the student conduct board and was facing school suspension. I knew Cam's punishment was out of the ordinary, compared to punishment given to a couple other players at the time. I knew that some insiders were saying there was more to the story of Cam's suspension. I read that Cam was heading down the wrong path at UF. He got in trouble and had more than a laptop to worry about. He was likely going to be suspended from scholarship for a semester. His dad refused to pay out of state tuition for a semester, and Cam had no choice but to go home. His dad also claimed that Cam would not get a fair chance to start while Brantley was here. (maybe, maybe not). If the accusations of cheating on 2 papers is true, it explains a little more to me why Cam left. As for blaming the leak on someone at UF, you also have to look at Bama, Miss. St. and LSU. Bama because they hate Auburn, Miss St. because Mullen knew Cam at UF and because of last week's $200k story, and LSU WR coach Billy Gonzalez was at UF when Cam was there. The student who allegedly had his paper missing and turned up with Cam's name on it is a possible source. Everyone who had anything to do with the case being put together for the student conduct hearing is a possible source. Meyer has more important things to do this week. He and Cam got along even after Cam left. Cam said earlier this season he wished he could have stayed. What good does it do Florida for this to come out ? I don't see any benefit from UF putting this out. Doyel and Evans are attention whores and I don't believe everything I read on the internet.
Doyel has already backtracked...

these links tell you more about what kind of guys Thayer Evans and Gregg Doyel are.
