Great find. Inside this great find, kind of like Russian nesting dolls, is yet another great find...
"To date, Mullen is getting more of those blue chip guys but is still taking players with relatively lower ratings like White, Weston, and Whittemore. Them showing real promise is potential proof of concept, that the staff really is significantly better at identifying what they want than the recruiting services are. The model is less of Alabama and UGA hoovering up as many top-rated guys as possible and more like that of Clemson, which until the 2020 cycle wasn’t a mainstay in the top five of the Composite rankings.
Mullen’s strategy of taking some of these longer-term bets takes time to pay off, and Gator fans aren’t known for their patience. It’s still too early to proclaim it a success, and the same goes for calling it a failure or anything in between, but there are some signs of positive return on investment appearing."
