Unselfish play characterizes UF’s talented receiving corps

Freddie Swain.

Before every game, Freddie Swain and Josh Hammond trot out to the 50-yard line, flanking David Reese II for the coin toss. After the coin has been flipped, possession decided and hands shaken, either Swain or Hammond will take a spot on the sideline.

Not what you’d expect from a senior captain — taking a spot on the bench to start. But it just shows what Hammond and Swain both know: Start or not, they’ll still get theirs. And if not this game, then the next.

Hammond said that he and Swain have an understanding with wide receiver coach Billy Gonzalez that they switch up who starts each game.
