Gators' Tebow showing improvement

University of Florida coach Urban Meyer says quarterback Tim Tebow continues to show improvement from his concussion.
Meyer said Wednesday on the weekly Southeastern Conference teleconference that Tebow "looked terrific" when he saw him late Tuesday night.
"That's the best I've seen him," Meyer said.
Meyer also saw Tebow earlier Tuesday, when the coach went through balance and memory tests with his star player, and said he just looked OK.
Meyer took several balance and memory tests with Tebow because he was curious about the process.
"It's been an amazing week," Meyer said Tuesday.
Meyer has inundated with questions about Tebow's recovery. On Tuesday, Meyer said the quarterback still had a headache but he was able to attend a team meeting. Meyer said Tebow hasn't been allowed to watch television or read, and didn't attend practice.
Meyer also said Tebow understands the severity of his brain injury.
"This isn't a turf toe or a shoulder," Meyer said. "This is a concussion. He's a grown man, so he's going to take care of himself. I'm very proud of the way he's handled it." The SEC Rocks!
