Recruiting Mac already meeting Recruits (part 2)

[Alagator]

He was a bust anyways

We have 8 OL remaining. We really can't afford to lose ANY more bodies.

 

[GatorJ]

Sharpe will replace him at LT. We really need Ivey now.

 

[GatorJ]

I disagree with you on this one. Not that he couldn't use an extra year but that he'll do well in the combine (speed and agility) and will likely get drafted higher than his on the field results suggest he should.

I think he's still only about 280-285 lbs no?

Gonna be a rough year on the QB it appears. Grier needs to consult Blockhead about one of those medical hardship redshirts.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Generally I agree with you. However, when you're facing the real possibility of playing a wet-behind-the-ears Freshman or a JUCO, I'll take the JUCO nearly every time.

We face the prospect of playing 240lb walkons or tuba players.

Every damn body we can get is critical right now. We've been sinking like the Titanic since Chimp's second terrible OL class.

I agree we need the bodies but Sharp and Johnson are both better tackles

 

[alcoholica]

Sharpe is going to be nasty with some experience, and Johnson will make an All-SEC team next year if he stays healthy

@ZachAbolverdi: BREAKING: #Gators LT D.J. Humphries has decided to enter the NFL draft

So Mac's list of things to do : 1 recruit, 2 hire coaches, 3 find that s.o.b. that keeps convincing these knuckleheads they are ready for the nfl, concrete his feet and drop him in the middle of lake Alice.

So in other words, hell end up at FSU. Zach's got this!

Yes, the NFL seems to be consumed with measurables and upside. Results on the field in an actual college game, not so important. I agree that Humphries will probably be selected in a draft spot that far exceeds what his UF performances would dictate.

FSU isn't in the picture. UF, Texas, Miami are the players. If TRob stays, he's likely all Gator. If he goes, then Texas would be the team to beat. UF would still have a shot, but it'd be much lower

 

[ufgator2002]

If we can land Jefferson, Ivey, Cowart, Holland, Merrick, Irvin and then fill in the gaps with a few others, we will be fine.

That is a lot of "ifs".

OL will be THE most important positions to recruit in this class. Then some quality LB's are a "must get". All the others will be nice but getting Cowart, Jefferson, etc. won't mean sh!t in terms of bringing W's to the program, if we don't have anybody to block for the QB.

Very true I'm with ya ... Ivey and Merrick are two quality lineman and we already have 3 committed so That would give us 5 for the class which is not bad... and I agree on the LB's, we need Holland and I so wish Coney would flip back... but be no doubt, we need Jefferson and Cowart

Why can't he say that all the great recruits aren't considering UF? We'd have a lot better shot of landing them if he did.

I think Zach is truly a Gator hater.
