The news came in the fall and hit home for the Florida Gators’ junior infielder.
It was the middle of fall baseball and conditioning when it was announced that Deacon Liput would be suspending immediately and indefinitely for an undisclosed reason.
The last time you saw him he was fielding the final out at TD Ameritrade, his throw landing in JJ Schwarz’s mitt for the final out of the season, igniting the eruption and dog pile as the Gators celebrated a National Championship. Now, he didn’t know when of if he would be able to join his teammates again.
