Amazing how Jimbo don't need time to build relationships to pull players and neither did Willie. Since 2010 Jimbo only pulled in 5 players from TX and now he's top 5 at A&M right now with mostly TX players. Willie was on the West Coast for over a year and a half and came back and has FSU. And A&M has been in just as bad of shape as UF has been so why are they both recruiting so much better than us if you need to build relationships? And somehow TN with a 1st time HC is out recruiting us. I thought players wanted to see how the coach looks. It's all excuses for Mullen and his staff. No reason we should be this down in recruiting I don't care how early it is in the cycle. If other teams can do it then so should we. 5 teams with new HC are above us that's ridiculous

It takes years to build relationships. Iowa, NW, Wisky, and MSU staff's have been together for years. You can't except Mullen to pull in studs this early especially with the program in shambles. He needs to be judged by the '22 class. He'll get it rolling then .

Creyer and Muscrap both had top 3 classes in their second year so I don't want to hear the building relationships bullshyt that we heard from the pumpers under Butters, there is no excuse for Mullen not to have a top 10 class. I'm not writing Mullen off yet but he needs to get some bluechippers committed to help us gain some momentum on the trail.

Call Kev a troll or not (maybe he is), but this is still the truth. Sad, but true. My Gator soul is still hopeful Mullen turns it around. My rational brain is extremely concerned. He has hyped up us old boosters with silly Gator chomps off the plane and other useless puffery. But, the real substance is lacking.

For example, I don’t care how cool you think your shoe game is when it’s coupled with 1992 pleated Dockers and a shirt two sizes too large. That’s awkward regardless of any Jordan’s and so is, apparently, his UF pitch.

Also lacking substance: stating the UF standard is championships but recruiting so far as though the standard is about 7-10th best in the southeast.

UF thrives when the coach is the most charismatic guy in the room/conference. Do any of you believe that’s Mullen?

I was being sarcastic. Plenty of pumpers used that rationale for Mac. I agree 10000% great salesman can sell anything, anywhere

I've been called a troll from day one it's nothing new. I'm just an honest person who calls it's how he sees it and around here that's trolling. I give credit when credit is do and I criticize when its needed and right now Mullen deserves to be criticized imo.

youre right i love the program more. Because im willing to deal with delusional pumpers like you and have high expectations for the program based on actual results rather than he did the gator chomp!!! Youre the worst type of fan. No expectations just happy to be here. What positives has this program had the last 8 years? The ****ty coaching? Offenses? Contracts? Recruiting? Ill be positive when the HC gives me something to be positive about. I hate wasting my time and $ on mediocre products. Mullen needs to start bringing elite kids and not just talk tough in puff pieces. I can overlook him being the 3Rd choice but Blasting a coach paid millions isn't the same as blasting the program. Plenty of fans have blasted Mullen for this recruiting class so far. So stfu. You're butthurt that anyone would question the HC at UF and you remind me of the Foley occultists who attack anyone who dared to criticize him. that's fine but Mullen just like Mac is paid millions and isn't pulling his weight right now in a key job requirement. Especially when you look at Taggart, Moorhead, Fisher, etc. Being at new places and having no problems selling their visions to kids. So yes I'm going to criticize that as a fan of UF. Go cry in the corner.

First off, everyone here knows your a nole troll. Secondly, if you had any clue whatsoever, you would know the hiring of Mullen made me physically sick. I have plenty of expectations but I don't continuously tear down the program with deep seeded hate like you do. You HATE the gator program and always have and again, everyone here knows your a nole. NOBODY is happy about where we are in recruiting. I have never defended Foley either. You need to get your facts right nolie trolie. Go back to whorechant and nut swing on your new coach.

I love when Gatorkev and Omar just "happen to be on at the same time" to agree with himself.

If we land Steele, Billingsley, Pittman, and Stingley? We have the third ranked class in the country. Our top targets arent committing yet folks, to anybody. The second everyone else starts going elsewhere then worry.

This is 100% truth. This is point where we panic

FYI I pray we land Steele this weekend

He's bringing his parents, so that's promising.

I've said this several times, but I think we move up to 12th before it's all said and done. We already have 1/3rd of the class committed. It's almost unrealistic to think we get 16 4-stars (and maybe one 5-star in that group). I suspect we land a few more 3-stars in that group and move past 15 teams into the 12th spot.

I know everyone bags on Omar and Kev, but nothing they've said on page 107 is wrong (sadly). We have 3 camps this month (the 16th camp I think is the main one), so let's see what happens. I'd like to see 3 commits this month - from 4-stars.
