Recruiting Lakeland duo

[GatorJ]

We've obviously falling off the map since the whole Pouncey coup. This is an insider article, but it basically says that we now lead for 5* WR James Robinson (although Bama has a really ramped up their pursuit in the last couple weeks), and we are in the hunt for his teammate Anthony Davis (rivals #6 RB).

Remember when we used to be able to land the top talent in our state? And even way more than our fair share in the country? Those were good times.

Good times.

Putting a thread in here is the kiss of death. It's worse than the dungeon. No traffic in here. Not sure why it exists.

This should have been in mainsports

Would be nice to pull die in state talent again

Our staff is too busy recruiting out of state kids....

Really? Didnt the article say we were leading?

Coach Gray paying dividends. We need 1-2 more elite recruiters on staff. I like Nord and Summers, but they are old as dirt and can't recruit.

I love your positive outlook. It's so refreshing during these dark days.

I think this is a make or break year for Summers. He finally has numbers, size and some talent to work with. Maybe they brought in the other dude from the Saints to help with recruiting....or maybe just to replace Summers if the oline under achieves this year?

With Jake Allen as our key high profile recruit we should be able to bring some offensive talent. These guys want to play with studs like Jake.

I'm really more worried about the defensive side of the ball. I feel like we missed big last year especially up front. We need to solidify the depth on this team across all areas on D. That and we still need more quality OL. One thing we know is that we are not yet a high level SEC team from an OL standpoint.

Can't you at least save these comments for the 3* articles? Someone mentions we're leading for a 5* WR and 4* RB and you're still complaining.

Top Florida talent. Well, lessee, the Orlando DT that some recruiting service ranked the overall number one in the country, but followed Muschamp to Auburn. Well, it took all of eight practices for him to lose his starting position to a true freshman EE. Still want him?
Serious question: He probably realizes he made a mistake. If he asked tomorrow to transfer to UF, would you advise Mac to take him?

You mean Cowart? I have no idea where he is on the depth chart, but there is no way I'd want him. I'm not sure Mac would have wanted him if Cowart pulled the same media circus "look at me" crap under Mac's watch. I suspect Cowart would have been dropped from the boards before NSD.

Cowart got exactly what he deserved.

Cowart got exactly what he deserved.

pretty sad, I think Jefferson and Cowart would have pushed each other, given their relationship
