This recruiting class is going to end with a complete thud. It has a lot to do with the way Grier ****ed us IMO.
We'll miss on all our remaining top targets and will be very fortunate to close on one more LB and OL.
However, I think the core of this class will really be the early enrollees and some of them could prove to be good contributors in the Fall.
I agree with all of this.
And I don't think the Grier situation is getting enough buzz as the reason this recruiting class will likely be disappointing. After the UT and Ole Miss games, the UF brand was white hot and recruits were excited about seeing the Swamp coming alive again and envisioned another couple of years of Grier leading the Gators.
After Grier F'ed up, we basically became the same team we were in 2014. Boring as hell to watch and not at all appealing to recruits. I believe in Mac and what he's trying to build, but 2016 is a HUGE year for him with regards to on field performance and recruiting.
