Florida running back Adam Lane has asked for and received a release from his scholarship, according to GatorZone.
Jim McElwain issued a statement on Lane's transfer:
"Adam Lane has some family issues that he is dealing with and wants to be closer to home," McElwain said. "As you've heard me say many times family comes first in this program and we will grant him his release and we will do everything we can do to help him."
Taking McElwain's statement at face value, we can obviously feel for Lane in a time of stress.
