Carter's Corner: Football-only facilities, Coaches Poll, Mullen on discipline, etc.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – While the Gators hit the practice field Friday afternoon for the first time this season, much of the focus at Thursday's Media Day was centered on non-football topics.

We try to do our best to keep Gator Nation updated on all UF sports and relevant topics here on FloridaGators.com, and to keep up with the tidal wave of information available each day, a links blog is often the most efficient way.

So, without further ado, here is our first one of the season:
