I honestly think Mac is recruiting decent. But where are those game changers? He's had two below average hauls for UF. We need an influx of top end talent. While Chump sucked donkey dick he did grab some NFL bound guys. You gotta have those to compete for the SEC and beyond. Right now, we're getting kids that will get us to ATL but not much further.
2015: Callaway, Cece, Ivey
2016: Cleveland, Piniero, J. Taylor, Massey, Clayton, Perine, Gardner
2017: Hansard, Lemons, Allen, Gamble, Wilson, Green, Telfort, Blades
You overstate things sometimes. The 2015 class was hampered by Mac having nowhere near a full cycle or staff and he pulled three clear game changers who will be NFL bound. The ones I listed from 2016 are looking likely to be game changers this season or soon enough. Five or six at least will go pro. The 2017 class isn't even finished yet and it's already ahead of last year's 14th ranked class. The eight I listed for this cycle have all the potential in the world to be as good as anyone at the college level and beyond. The recruiting has shown improvement each year and will only get better.
SOS didn't step right into National Championship contention either. It took him 6 years. And he always said getting to Atlanta had to ALWAYS be the priority. Just your feeling that the kids Mac is pulling in now can get us to the SEC game means we're going in the right direction.
