Aaron Hernandez was an integral member of the highly successful Florida Gators team from 2007-09 under Urban Meyer. However, the late tight end barely featured in the recent Netflix documentary, "Untold: The Swamp Kings."
The documentary narrates the tale of the Florida Gators team during the tenure of Meyer. It explores the Gators' dominance of the SEC, achieving national championships in 2006 and 2008.
However, the notable omission of tight end Hernandez in the four-part documentary hasn't gone down well with many college football enthusiasts. The sole mention of Hernandez in the Netflix documentary is when quarterback Tim Tebow held himself accountable for their bar altercation in 2007.

An earlier documentary on Aaron Hernandez
Notably, Netflix had earlier released a documentary on Hernandez titled "Killer Inside: The Mind of Aaron Hernandez." It delves into the turbulent life of the tight end, examining the factors in his life that may have propelled him towards violent tendencies.
Building on director Geno McDermott's 2018 documentary "My Perfect World: The Aaron Hernandez Story," the series aims to uncover the true identity of Hernandez beyond the superficial headlines that chronicled his remarkable ascent and subsequent downfall.
The three-part documentary contends that multiple factors played a role in shaping Hernandez's actions. The series intermingled news clips, trial recordings, conversations with friends and ex-teammates, as well as phone call recordings while he was in prison.
Hernandez was charged with the murder of Odin Lloyd, a semi-professional player who was dating his fiancé's sister. He was found guilty of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center.
A few days after being acquitted of a different case, Hernandez was found dead by suicide in his cell.
Netflix series left out a lot of things
The documentary highlighted a couple of occurrences within the team during the dominant era of Urban Meyer. However, It practically overlooks several significant off-field narratives that characterized the Florida Gators team that fans expected to see in the series.
A substantial portion of the documentary’s four episodes revolves around Urban Meyer and Tim Tebow. A couple of other players were featured, with notable input coming from linebacker duo Brandon Siler and Brandon Spikes.
Aside from Aaron Hernandez, many off-field controversies surrounding the team were left out. That includes Cam Newton's stolen laptop incident, Zach Smith's aggravated battery charges, Percy Harvin's attack on Billy Gonzales and Carlos Dunlap's driving incident.
Even Meyer's cardiac arrest was left out despite a large part of the series featuring him. That has left many fans frustrated.
