We all know the Holy Trinity of Florida Football: Urban Meyer, Tim Tebow, Percy Harvin. These three characterize the type of football that has been massively successful since Ron Zook left for another breed of Orange & Blue.

But what of those who have helped Tebow win the Heisman and helped Meyer earn respect in the tough SEC? After all, every successful play has its stars and supporting actors.

With that in mind, it’s time to salute ten noble warriors who could help the Gators garner more hardware for the still-in-progress Gator Room in Gainesville. Please note, these are in no particular order.

10. Steve Spurrier

He might have dumped our program and acted like a jerk, but he still won Florida’s first Heisman and national championship. He also took the program out of the dark ages of NCAA sanctioning.

His antics were cute when he was our coach, but now…

9. The Gator offensive line

They get in here as a collective group. Without a phone booth, Tim Tebow is merely Clark Kent - the shy, unassuming reporter not moving up in the world.

But with his offensive line, #15 transforms into a mighty force of nature, wreaking havoc on any defense in his way. His stiff-arm is the stuff of legends; there is no known counter for that fist of fury.

8. Caleb Sturgis

The next time this guy boots a 50-yard field goal to win the game, be thankful that Florida’s kicking woes are a thing of a past.

7. The Bull Gator Club

Behind every wildly successful college team are its wealthy donors, and these guys are no exception. To join, you’ve gotta write a pretty hefty check.

Oh well, they get their names put on everything as a reward, including The Swamp (Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.) Wherever you are, Charley Pell, thanks for sweet-talking a citrus tycoon so many years ago.

6. Kenny Carter

Thanks to this man, Tebow won’t have to run the ball nearly as often.

After all, a successful offense needs a good running back, or three.

5. Joe Haden

Joe, you may not make the Gator cornerbacks dominant, but you’ll at least make ‘em respectable. We’ll need your athleticism to stop the opponent’s passing. We’re counting on you.

4. General Tebow’s Army of One - 90,000 Strong

You, Florida football fan, help create the home-field advantage that the Swamp is famous for. Your screaming helps mess up opposing audibles, gives Gator cornerbacks sticky fingers, and provides Tim Tebow with the energy to play four quarters in the hot, cavernous coliseum in which he works.

Oh yeah, all that heat and noise is also useful for keeping Venom and Carnage away from Spider-Man. That is, if Peter Parker lived in Gainesville.

3. Brandon James

B.J., without you, Florida’s offense struggles from poor field position.

You might only be 5′6″, but at UF, we don’t measure our heroes by size. If you get the job done, it doesn’t matter if you’re 6′, 5′6″, or even 2 feet tall. Gators are Gators, and that’s the freakin’ truth.

2. Craig Howard

If you didn’t help turn Tebow from linebacker to quarterback and taught him the spread offense, well, things at UF would be a lot different.

Now, you coach at a high school notorious for feeding kids to FSU, and I’m not talking about the powerhouse Fresno State baseball team. Good luck, bud.

1. Dan Mullen

He’s been by Urban Meyer’s side since his starting days as a head coach. He’s designed offensive schemes that earned Bowling Green MAC respectability, made Alex Smith a #1 pick in the NFL draft, turned Chris Leak into a national champion, and delivered a Heisman to a star sophomore.

What more could a head coach ask for? A generous contract extension for the assistant, perhaps?
