Florida CB Haden leaving early for NFL (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Florida cornerback Joe Haden is skipping his final year of eligibility and entering the NFL draft. Haden announced his intentions Sunday, two days after No. 5 Florida beat fourth-ranked Cincinnati 51-24 in the Sugar Bowl. The All-American led the Gators with four interceptions this season and was a finalist for the Thorpe Award, given annually to the nation's top defensive back.
