Recruiting Mac already meeting Recruits (part 2)

[alcoholica]

I just don't think guys that GREW UP Gator fans would troll us. Especially after last year. Now, that doesn't mean Cece, Cowart, Holland, and Ivey will all end up Gators, but I think they'd like to be. But it's a tall task for those guys to trust in new coaches and commit to rebuilding a program… I do think we land 'em all though. :cool:

On defense, we have a known coach in Collins. Shannon is a ridiculous upgrade over Hutzler. Looks like TRob is leaving, but we should fine some quality hires on the D for DB's and Line. Looking for another hire within a week since the NFL playoffs are starting.

I like the sound of that. Mom's coming to meet the coaches.

Does she have any eligibility left and can she block?

No, but I wouldn't underestimate the power of a mom's persuasion.

 

[rogdochar]

We need every bit of help we can get getting.

 

[MidwestChomp]

Tell that to Landon Collins and Gerald Willis.

 

[NavetG8r]

Tell that to Landon Collins and Gerald Willis.

I'm not saying he'll take her advice, but he'll listen at least. I'm 50 years old and I still listen to my mom's advice...even if I don't follow it.

 

[soflagator]

Tell that to Landon Collins and Gerald Willis.

Based on what I've seen from Cowart, he seems to be a better kid than those two examples, which is quite often a reflection of their mother and/or father. The decisions of both Willis and Collins seem to be with absolute zero regard for their mother's wishes. And considering how she handled things(particularly in Collins' case) I'm not sure I blame them for that disregard. Hopefully Cowart's mom is the type that makes him want her blessing.

Of course, this is all predicated on her liking UF and the new coaches. If it turns out that she doesn't, I reserve the right to drastically edit this post.

@ZachAbolverdi: Ray-Ray McCloud & Adonis Thomas told me it's unlikely they'll visit UF or flip to any school & Te'Von Coney says he's enrolling early at ND.

So we can expect all three of them to be Gators next fall!

Yeah, that may have had more to do with her than anything. Maybe the reason both of her boys spurned the home state team was due in large part, of the need to get the hell away from her.

She seems a little...

Actually, the Bowled One is pretty good at figuring out that guys AREN'T going to be Gators.

 

[WobbleGator]

Damn, we are getting visits but no commits.

Because they didn't fumigate...

Navet, I've followed your Mom's advice and she's more proud of my success.

Well, since I haven't been successful in anything in life, I'm not surprised.

 

[ufgator812]

She must not know you are a Mod on the GCMB...

Well, confession time, your mother sent me money to help at times.
