His high school coach was just butt hurt after pressuring Cowart to sign with Florida, even harassing him for hours after his announcement. His school, Seffner Armwood has been a feeder school to UF for years and for the best player. at least rated, ever at the school to choose another school was a huge slap in the face to him. I do think UF was better off getting Jefferson because something about Cowart told me that he was all about himself, and as McElwain recently said, selfish players are a a big problem. What he is too dumb to realize is that there is a process called "derecruiting" that happens at every school. You are no longer the number one player and how many "stars" you had don't mean sh.. What he fails to understand is that being coached hard is a sign that the coaches think you have a chance to be a good player. The time to get worried is when the coaches aren't pushing you and ignoring you. Coaches don't have time to waste their effort on marginal players. You don't hear coaches singling out marginal players for playing poorly, if they are on your case it means they see that you have the opportunity to become a good or great player. I doubt UF's coaches spent a lot of time working with Skyler Mornhinweg, while every possible strategy was employed to try and light a fire under Jeff Driskel.
I think Auburn is the most overrated team in college football this year. They had the same record as UF last year. The only difference was that they got to play all three of their paid scrubs, while one of UF's was cancelled. They lost eight starters on offense, and that offense wasn't great last year. They need Cowart to be a factor this year, desperately. But, as is almost always the case, counting on true freshmen is a very dicey proposition. True freshmen can contribute, but the best teams aren't counting on them, they are only pleasantly surprised if one is ready to play.
