Bear with me while I pull a stupid for a bit here. From the article:
1. Grimes and Jefferson count against 2018? Super stupid moment...would the 2018 class be who is signed in Feb of 2018, meaning the class we are signing RIGHT NOW? How can they possibly count against the current class unless it is referring to the 25/yr limit?
2. Grimes was 2017, and Jefferson was 2015. How much eligibility does each have once they can play for UF?
3. Been wanting to ask, but I'm assuming Justin Watkins is NOT related to Sammy and Jaylen Watkins?
4. The 4* kid we signed last year then didn't play due to heart problems is officially out of football, correct? I'm assuming the kid still can get some sort of hardship scholarship for an education but does not count against football and may open up another spot for an EE to count to last year. Is this even close to the reality?
They count against our initial counter limit for this year, the first year we give them aid.
So there is really a limit on new scholarships given (between Dec1 and May 31) and the initial counter rule for those first offered aid each fall term (catches grayshirts but also transfers).
Here is some help but it isn't indepth. http://www.espn.com/college-footbal...overhauling-college-football-recruiting-rules
This year our only limit is the 25 rule. (Or is it 28 - not clear on that). The other stuff isn’t an issue.
This is probably why the visits got pushed back.
That...and there was only 2 or 3 scheduled. Those kids rescheduled, which is a good thing.
I'd like to know more about the Johnson kid from Georgia (who was just CB'd to us yesterday by 1 analyst). Came out of nowhere, and wasn't really on anyone's radar that we were recruiting him.
Yeah, I was watching his tape yesterday. He was dropping into coverage and picking off passes and then bullying anyone trying to block him when rushing the passer. He's listed at 6'3.5 and 250lbs but looks like he could put considerably more weight on his frame, looked like he needs to get stronger. He look pretty athletic with the ball in his hands too. He's only listed as a 3* but has some nice offers from UGA, Auburn, LSU, Miami, etc. Looks like he's set for an OV on 01/19.
This is probably why the visits got pushed back.

The 28 initial encounter rule was NCAA. The SEC took a more strict stance at 25. Which the NCAA later adopted.
2018 receiver Geordon Porter (6-2, 180, Rancho Cucamonga, CA. Etiwanda) picked up an offer on Tuesday. Porter has already taken three official visits and visits Tennessee this weekend. Porter says he’s deciding on fifth visit between Florida, Texas A&M, Oregon State and Iowa State.
Do we need a 3* WR in this class?
