The University of Florida will unveil a Tim Tebow Heisman Trophy statue outside of Ben Hill Griffin Stadium during halftime of the annual Orange & Blue Spring Game – April 9, 2011. There will also be a statue for fell Gator Heisman winners Danny Wuerffel and Steve Spurrier.

“We are very proud to recognize the accomplishments of our Heisman Trophy winners,” said Senior Associate Athletics Director Chip Howard. “The statues will give our fans an opportunity to see and capture a real-life visual image of each of the storied athletes. We are grateful for the private donations that made the project possible. We are also thankful for the work and cooperation of the Campus Facilities Planning and Construction Department that assisted us in following University policy and procedure that helped bring this project to fruition. The sculptor, Sandy Proctor, was meticulous in every phase of the process and did a tremendous job bringing the likeness and personality to each of the statues.”

There are no little statues either – they’re life size and weigh over 5,000 lbs each. Tim Tebow will be at the event for the unveiling, so if you’re a Tebow fan plan on attending the Spring Game this year.
