Particular to this article:

Trevon Grimes WR
Donovan Peoples-Jones WR
Jarez Parks - Weakside DE

The rest of the 5* that we're either in the hunt for or outright favorites:

Shaun Wade - CB - OSU commit but Torrian Gray has been all over him.

James Robinson - WR

Calvin Ashley - OL - Barn commit likely to eventually flip between either UF or FSux

Moses Dylan - LB - Heavy Bama lean though

We are loaded at WR. We need OL and LB desperately.

We were in the hunt for many of the 5* guys this past year as well but unfortunately they don't sign for another year so.......

Dylan will have to beat out the top two LBs in the class of 2016 - Davis / Wilson
Adonis Thomas from the class of 2015
Christian Miller from the class of 2014

5 stars are overrated. It's the 3 stars that win you titles.

Moses has been a monster since the 8th grade. I hope he comes here. But I think it's gonna be really hard to pull him from Bama. I would really be surprised if he went anywhere else.

We were later in the year. We played catch up all year. At least we're in front this year. It's hard to play catch-up with these high rated guys. Even in our transition year we were able to hold on to the five stars who we were out in front for the entire year. Better to be in front than trying to catch up at the end of the year.

At some point soon, kids will have to start to worry about Saban retiring from Bama. Also, Pruitt has a pretty poor reputation, which could affect some recruiting.

The biggest issue for us this year is to improve on our first half's offense. If JDR or Appleby can move the offense a little better than Grier, I think we can have a pretty good class. No, I don't think it's as hard as it sounds. Grier had great upside, but was inconsistent. A top 50 offense should get it done. If we produce a top 50 offense......

Trevon Grimes will be in play. Right now it seems we are a distant second, but I think we are gaining ground daily due to his visit to UF and Jake Allen recruiting him. Since he has a reference point now, Allen's recruiting will have more impact. Short of top 50, I think we can forget about him. Otherwise, it will be a battle.

Peoples-Jones is someone I've heard little about, other than we're in good shape.

Parks is a guy that really likes UF. Given our success on the DL and having Rumph, I think he may be our best shot at a 5* right now.

Wade is committed to OSU, and will likely be a tough pull. Adding Gray should help a lot. I don't know if he is close to Washington or Harkless, but Washington was a good recruiting for his class.

Robinson is going to be one to watch. Gray's hire and a top 50 offense will probably get him on board.

Ashley is the least of my concern. A 5* OL is about the least impressive kind of 5* there is. I'd trade him for any on the list.

Dylan I've heard nothing about. The depth chart at Bama is probably not enough to scare him off. If we are to have a chance, we'll need some issues to surface at Bama. He is from Baton Rouge originally, so LSU is the elephant in the room not Bama.

Nate McBride is another 5* LB, but he plays MLB and from Vadalia, GA. Not sure how much he likes UF, but his recruitment seems pretty open.

We are absolutely desperate for linebackers. Shannon should be living in some of these kids' houses.

I think road grader, 5* OL do well. Guys with solids height and weight that are agile. Ivey and Tunsil comes to mind. Five stars with weight issues do not do so well. See Humphries and Patchen.

Wade is solid with Ohio State right now. But we are putting on the full-court press. Here is some stuff on Wade's recruitment:

Florida product and top athlete, Bruce Judson was committed to Ohio State for a long time. He decommitted toward the end of last year. He is now a heavy lean to UF.

Harbaugh already called dibs on the couch.

Nothing against Ashley, but out of that list, his 5* designation means the least.

Definitely sounds like a flipper.

At least he didn't type 'Chop, Chop'; but yeah, after what Manuel (GatorBait) did to us, who knows what goes through these kids heads.

My goodness. How much money does he have to pay back?

Maybe he can borrow Harbaughs sleeping bag and tent.

 

[ThreatMatrix]

In the hunt. Like I'm in the hunt for a Victoria Secret's model. I'll believe it when I see their panties. Metaphorically speaking. ;)

We were later in the year. We played catch up all year.

We were playing catch up to Harballs and Kirby Smart?

Pass the koolaid!!!!

TURN THE EFFING PAGE!
