I don't invest any time in these kids until they put on a Gator uniform. After raising teenagers I'm a little jaded.

#1OG? We did want him anyway. I can't imagine losing him to friggin Arkansas. Maybe the kid wants to fight Barn for last place. I hope it isn't a grade thing. It's pretty hard for Ccs to transfer to UF.

This kinda sucks. Guess it explains why they were going after another juco transfer

Probably worried about grades....About 8 out of 10 JC's never seem to amount to much anyway, at least for us.

If the piglets don't fire Bulimia then he will at least be on a nuclear hotseat. If it's not an admissions thing, we may still have a chance.

We need guards in a bad way.....We've really struck out there with the likes of Riles and Dillard.

Blake Alderman hinted to some conditioning issues. Maybe he didn't hold up to his end of the bargain and we cut him loose.

We didn't want Autry. He was in a bar and a girl hit him.

Did the reportage say he was the number one JUCO OL at his position, or the number one OL at his position overall? There is a difference.

Juco only I think and it was scout so it's suspect. However, we are in desperate need of immediate help that only Jucos can bring so he is more important for us than ever.

Generally, I agree that jucos aren't worth the risk/reward for their short time at UF. However, with our depth situation at OL and LB, I'd take any good one (or transfer) we could get. I'd probably at any true NT we could find, but juco Mt Codys don't come along often.

It's being said that he really hasn't lived up to his part of the deal and hasn't really "wowed" anyone this year....im thinking we "let"/cut him out

This sucks. Hopefully we replace him with a top tier lineman.

I don't have a problem with this. I'd rather free up the scholly. We have some guys redshirting this year that have potential.

From everything i've read he has not put in the work necessary and this was more UF pushing him out. Also read that he showed up and was measured at around 6'1 and not 6'4 like his listed profile and that also played a role.
