Gators serving up more than success in McElwain’s kitchen

Jim McElwain doesn’t cut corners in life, and that holds true for the peanut butter and jelly sandwiches he’s making for any of the 105 players on Florida’s football team.

The first-year UF coach has made it a priority this season to bond with each member of the Gators, and according to McElwain, there’s no better way to get to know your players than with a PB&J.

"There’s some things that you really get to know about the guy when you’re spreading the peanut butter on a slab of bread and squeezing that jelly on there," McElwain said Wednesday.
