Gators lose 5-star S Xaiver Filsaime to Texas, class drops 5 spots to No. 10

GAINESVILLE — Florida football coach Billy Napier’s pivotal 2024 class fell five spots to No. 10 after 5-star safety prospect Xavier Filsaime changed his commitment to Texas. The McKinney, Texas, native was a key member of a class that reached as high as No. 3 nationally in August but declined as the Gators struggled to a 5-7 finish in Year 2 under Napier. Filsaime, the second-rated player at his position per 247Sports, committed to the Gators in April 14 following the team’s spring game. Recruited by Corey Raymond, who was fired Nov. 27, Filsaime chose UF over Georgia, LSU, Oregon and USC. But...

But that doesn’t mean the market is at a standstill.Nationally, demand is still high compared to the last normal years in the housing market and plenty of buyers are making moves right now. Here’s the data to prove it.Showing Traffic Is UpThe ShowingTime...

Dave Hyde: Dolphins, Tagovailoa get season back on its merry way with dominant win over Jets

MIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins redeemed their identity, confirmed their character, vindicated their coach, sidestepped a weeklong crisis, sent their season back on its merry way and, according to Tua Tagovailoa, started the process even before the 30-0 romp against the New York Jets on Sunday. “Dude, if you can’t go, we got you, brother,” the Dolphins quarterback said to Tyreek Hill long before kickoff as the receiver tested his bad ankle. “It’s a team sport. It’s going to take all of us.” This was the question Sunday, wasn’t it? Well, it was one of the questions. There were so many: How...

Chris Perkins: Dolphins’ Jalen Ramsey leads huge individual and team effort for injury-shortened defense vs. Jets

MIAMI GARDENS — The first time New York Jets standout wide receiver Garrett Wilson had a pass thrown his way Sunday was in the third quarter, and Miami Dolphins All Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey was there to knock the ball away. Ramsey, who shadowed Wilson and covered him like a blanket all day, got up talking trash to the Jets sideline. He was justified. He balled out. Ramsey, who ended up with no tackles and one pass defended, helped set a stingy, stubborn, determined tone for the Dolphins’ injury-riddled defense, which was missing three-fourths of its starting secondary. “He was phenomenal,”...

General Daily Insight for December 18, 2023

General Daily Insight for December 18, 2023 A second look should prove worthwhile. The Moon in Pisces inspires us with a sextile to Jupiter, but the trine between messenger Mercury and grandiose Jupiter at 9:28 am EDT will be even more exciting. Remember, however, that with Mercury Retrograde we can find more success in reviewing old work or projects, rather than embarking on fresh schemes. The Moon will then go on to trine Venus and square Mars, so our feelings may burn more brightly than we’re used to. Aries March 21 – April 19 An old idea could prove vastly lucrative. Mercury is retrograde...

Butler jumper at buzzer saves the night for Heat in 118-116 escape vs. Bulls

MIAMI – Neither the early 15-point lead not the double-digit lead midway through the fourth quarter mattered, as all too often has been the case for the Miami Heat, Sustaining has not been a specialty for Erik Spoelstra’s team. Nor has any sort of homecourt dominance. So there the Heat stood again Saturday night, with the final ticks determining whether a night with several positives would provide a payoff. That’s when Jimmy Butler said enough was enough. Converting a 20-foot jumper just before the buzzer, Butler lifted the Heat to a dramatic 118-116 victory over the Chicago Bulls at Kaseya...

Hurricanes heating up on recruiting trail, land two transfers and blue-chip linebacker

The Hurricanes’ busy recruiting weekend continued into Saturday night, as UM’s coaches landed commitments from a key transfer safety and one of the nation’s top 2025 linebackers.

General Daily Insight for December 17, 2023

General Daily Insight for December 17, 2023 There is a method to the madness of the day. The Moon begins in open-minded Aquarius, where it makes a helpful sextile to the Sun in adventurous Sagittarius before drifting into Pisces. After setting up camp in this dreamy sign, Luna will conjoin masterful Saturn at 6:32 pm EDT, building a path for us to do the smart thing and tackle difficult projects. There’s no need to move mountains, but with a little effort, we can make a difference for the better. Aries March 21 – April 19 You may feel rather reclusive without knowing why. The Moon conjoins...

Three found guilty of fraud in South Florida nursing-school ‘diploma mill’ trial

Three people charged with playing crucial roles in a South Florida nursing-school “diploma mill” were found guilty by a federal jury Friday, after a three-week trial where prosecutors accused the defendants of corrupting the healthcare field. Prosecutors said that more than 3,500 students paid between $10,000 and $20,000 for bogus academic credentials from the defunct Palm Beach School of Nursing — after Florida regulators had shut it down in 2018 — so they could sit for licensing exams in New York and gain employment in the healthcare field without proper training. After six hours of deliberations,...

General Daily Insight for December 16, 2023

General Daily Insight for December 16, 2023 Nothing is what it seems. The Moon in Aquarius starts off with a square to Venus, stirring up our emotions, but the lunar sextile to Mars should let us put our passionate energy to good use. Breaking down barriers will be extra appealing when the Moon squares Uranus, though our causes could get muddled when the Sun squares off against Neptune at 10:43 pm EST. Our motives may feel painfully complicated or confusing, so don’t expect certainty at a time like this. Aries March 21 – April 19 Your inner compass is pointing every which way. You’re potentially...
