In UF's defense, they didn't produce the calendar. This was a licensing deal and had to be approved far ahead. It was approved before he was arrested but someone should have been able to stop this thing from hitting the market after he was arrested

This should be a lesson to all these schools who license so many products just to get that extra dollar to keep a close watch on this stuff. And that includes UT.

Wow.  You would think the calendar maker would go to great lengths to correct anyway, but then, they might have considered it more marketable to leave him in.  "yeah, like, cool man, it has Hernandez.  Let's light one up and laugh about that".  You know.  College kids.  LOL...but seriously, if they WANTED him in there, then..... :hurl:
