Florida’s once-promising running back rotation for 2015 is now a little thinner.
Redshirt sophomore Adam Lane is transferring from the football program, the school announced Sunday. Lane, from Winter Haven, won MVP honors in the Birmingham Bowl.
“Adam Lane has some family issues that he is dealing with and wants to be closer to home,” UF coach Jim McElwain said in a statement. “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 to help him.”
Lane, who has two young children, missed time in the spring due to family reasons.
