Well, at least it looks like they're making an effort on the Plan B DT's. It's about F*CKING TIME! Seriously, WTF have they been waiting on. A bunch of arrogant, non-recruiting mother-f*ckers on this coaching staff!

We should have had 4-6 4* DTs under serious consideration (w/ them actually considering us) along w/ a couple of higher end 3* DTs...then about 6-10 Plan B types. We have a support staff that could have sent letters and texts, while a coach could have made a text or call every couple of weeks. Losing the two DTs we had on the hook is inexcusable...but what's more inexcusable is not have a backup plan (or 3 or 4).

Thanks for the updates....

This thread has soul crushing potential. If I have any hope my gators will be good next year, I can come to this thread.

Star avg isn't bad but we don't have nearly enough and aren't meeting area of needs. Total number of 4 and 5 stars combined and are you meeting needs is one good way to look at that stuff.

And half of the few blue chippers we have are publicly wavering.

I'm not sure which is more fun...watching our vaunted offense or the rapid rise in recruiting rankings?

Go ahead and delete it J.

Zach A has a new story up:

https://www.seccountry.com/florida/...day-visiting-recruits-committed-rival-schools

The recruiting visits by Florida’s staff on Tuesday included some targets committed to rival schools.

UF coach Jim McElwain, offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier and linebackers coach Randy Shannon saw Miami 4-star offensive tackle commit Navaughn Donaldson and Miami 3-star linebacker De’Andre Wilder. Donaldson officially visited the Gators last month and they may try to flip Wilder for their third LB spot in the class.

While in Miami, the trio of Florida coaches also visited UF offensive tackle commit Kadeem Telfort, 2018 running back James Cook (FSU commit), 2018 safety Nadab Joseph (LSU commit), 2018 defensive end Kayode Oladele, 2018 offensive tackle Kahric Belle and 2018 cornerback Divaad Wilson.

Florida defensive coordinator Geoff Collins paid a visit to Tennessee commit Marquez Bembry, a 4-star athlete, and 2018 prospects in Atlanta.

Defensive line coach Chris Rumph and secondary coach Torrian Gray went to see 4-star safety Devon Hunter (Chesapeake, Va.) and 4-star defensive tackles Breyon and Brandon Gaddy (Virginia Beach, Va.). Florida is battling Virginia Tech for Hunter, while the Gaddy twins recently decommitted from Tennessee.

Wide receivers coach Kerry Dixon II traveled to Texas for 4-star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (Oklahoma commit) and 4-star offensive tackle Stephan Zabie.

Offensive line coach Mike Summers visited a pair of 4-star offensive linemen for 2018, Trey Hill (Warner Robins, Ga.) and FSU commit Christian Meadows (Montezuma, Ga.). Summers also saw 4-star athlete Kearis Jackson (Fort Valley, Ga.) and 3-star running back Lyn-J Dixon (Butler, Ga.).

Running backs coach Tim Skipper checked in on Florida athlete commit Kadarius Toney (Eight Mile, Ala.) and 2018 cornerback Jalyn Armour-Davis (Mobile, Ala.), while tight ends coach Greg Nord visited the parents of UF tight end pledge Zech Byrd (Millbrook, Ala.) and 3-star defensive tackle Alec Jackson (Montgomery, Ala.).

Florida commits in action
Here are the standout performers from Friday:

4-star QB Jake Allen (Fort Lauderdale, Fla./St. Thomas Aquinas) completed 9 of 11 pass attempts for 182 yards and 3 touchdowns in his team’s 46-8 win over Venice. St. Thomas Aquinas plays Plant on Friday in the Class 7A state championship game.

3-star RB Malik Davis (Tampa, Fla./Jesuit) rushed for 177 yards in his team’s 21-14 loss to American Heritage in the Class 5A semifinal. He finishes his senior season with 2,534 rushing yards and 33 touchdowns.

3-star cornerback Shawn Davis (Miami/Southridge) had two interceptions, including a 97-yard pick-6, in his team’s 26-7 win over Deerfield Beach. Southridge faces Dr. Phillips on Saturday in the Class 8A state championship game.

To be completely transparent, I can't troll well enough to get deleted.

However, I notice you changed your title from "Useless" to "Hopeful". I cannot use that word anymore with UF football. H-O-P-E is a four letter word that only leads to disappointment, bitterness, and broken things around the house. I find your use of the term hurtful and insensitive. I'd ask for a safe space, but that means you'd ban me for a few days. ... I'll try to hold up in this hostile environment.


On topic - without a game this week or next, I expect some serious 'crootin to be happenifying. Who's next on the list? Is there a reason we're using other team's commit list as our 'go visit' list? How many of our current commits are to be visited for flip-prevention? What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow? Sorry, went off topic again.

What's your favorite color?
