First there was Adrian Bushell, who was a prime candidate to replace Joe Haden as the starting corner opposite Janoris Jenkins before being released from his scholarship late last week.
Now comes word from Scout.com by way of the Orlando Sentinel that linebacker Brendan Beal has decided to transfer from the Gators. Beal spent two seasons in Gainesville, but never saw the field because of a torn ACL in 2008 and a neck stinger in 2009.
"I was told tonight (Sunday) by Coach Steve Addazio that I will be given my official release from the University of Florida sometime tomorrow," Beal said. "I spent two years at Florida under several different coaches in which I had the opportunity to learn a lot about football and had some good experiences there. I appreciate the time the coaches gave me during my tenure with the Gators and wish them the best of luck with their program."
Beal was a U.S. Army All-American and rated as the No. 3 inside linebacker in the nation by Rivals.com coming out of high school in Bethlehem, Pa.
