Can someone who actually knows what's going on start a new thread for "Early Signing Day", along with a list of who we have and who we may get, etc? I want to link this new thread on Facebook, etc.
It'll just turn into a pissin' contest like this one...

Amen and amen.

Sorry. I didn't know this was one of the requirements..

I can still delete the other thread.

Not necessary IMHO. However, if you could withhold your incessant whining and complaining for the actual complaint thread, we’d all appreciate it. No need to repeat yourself in 3 different threads...

Someone started it. But it wasn’t someone who knows what’s going on.

Well there is no nonsense allowed in the new 3rd recruiting thread so maybe the whining and complaining won’t be allowed either? Kinda doubt it, but we can hope.

According to the Noles 247 site, Dontae Lucas is sticking with the Holes. Now I would not expect them to say anything different. We will see on Wednesday.

I expect him to stick as well. I think his godfather on the staff.

does anyone know how many players Florida is signing this year?

I have asked this around here a couple of times in a slightly different from. I have asked how many UF can sign this year.

This is a pretty easy if a bit complicated question and if there were anyone around who seriously follow recruiting they would know the answer or at least have a decent answer. I always did have a reasonable stab at this back when I seriously followed it, before Foley spent a decade trying to get me to care less about UF football than I did in the 1990s. Of course the early signing period coming before the bowl game, NFL announcements etc complicates this a bit.

Since we have gotten no answer to our questions, I spent a an hour or so trying to answer this. The parameters are these:

A. It appears to me that UF was about 85-79 or 6 below the 85 limit after awarding two walk on scholarships in August.

B. It appears to me that UF was a greater number than 6 maybe as many a 13 below the 25 initial enrollee limit in August. (That is UF was able to count back some the 8 early enrollees last year, but I am not sure how many and A make any number over 6 moot.) If UF was not able to count back 6, then the number below would need to be reduced.

C. UF has 14 SRs by eligibility on its roster and will lose a currenty unknown number of players leaving the program early due to turning pro, transfering etc.

So UF can in theory go to 31 signees and count back 6, if UF has 6 signees who will enroll in January and the staff . I believe that to be the case with the early enrollees. So UF can sign the number under 85 + the number of SRs plus the number that UF can count back or by my count 8 + 14 + 6 = 28 for sure and if UF has attrition of 3 this offseason as will surely be the case, UF can go to 31. However since Alcoholica just posted, this would preclude any transfers grad or otherwise unless UF has additional attrition.

Brother, the number is almost impossible to tell. We signed 18 last year (and had a few transfer "initial counters" who also take a seat in the class), many of these enrolled early so they "counted back" to the last class.

Any early enrollees, tranfers or jucos signed this year that come in January could count back to the 2018 class. We could land 25 in this class too. Any number in the 30s is probably POSSIBLE.

Of course, the overall limit of 85 still applies and until we know about NFL early entrants and transfers, we can't really estimate that either.

The most common assumption I hear is that we will sign 25-27. I have heard as low as 22 but that is assuming no early NFLers and no transfers.

haha No its not! So, 27-29 is the probability. Thanks. I'm an Arkansas fan and i know our goal is 29. we have 25 public commits and 2 silent. Every team has a goal so im guessing the answer is 25ish. there is no way in hell yall sign 30+. Simply not going to happen

FSU held their graduation procession Saturday. On their robe-lapels each wore a flower squirting water.

Finally a Florida fan can do math!!! I asked the same question on another thread and got called names and people telling me "its impossible to know" all it does is require simple math to get a number that yall are hoping to sign around. Im an Arkansas fan and had to ask for you Florida fans to know. hahah yall need to get yalls sh!t together
