I’m curious as to why kids like DB don’t just go to Santa Fe. It’s right across town and he could still have unofficial contact with his future teammates who could then spend “off time” relaying training plans etc.
Am I way off in this line of thinking?

No football team.

If what an above poster said about his grades and basketball season has any truth to it, maybe not having a football team would be a good thing. Take a year and a summer, bust out some classes and work out like a wild man. He likely wouldn’t get much PT this year anyway right?

You cant take three years off football. He was going to be incredibly rusty as it was, missing his senior year in high school.

Plus if he can't manage to be a student and a football player, he's of no use to us anyway.

No football team.

If UF had half a brain, they’d help SF establish a football program. That could help us hold onto some of these commits who don’t qualify out of HS. RFN is the only commit I can think of who still came to UF after juco.

This thread title really needs to be changed. I almost didn't click on it as it seemed like it was pretty obviously bad news. But I clicked anyways and for once lately on this board I was actually pleasantly surprised.

I love these resurrected threads. I’m always intrigued to click on it to see where I left off. If it’s old enough, it will start at the beginning and that allows me to refresh my memory. Then I skip to the end to see what’s new.

Does this mean we can change the thread title?

Yes. But...technically...ok, yes...

He’ll be attending in December???? No school term starts in December.
I guess once the fall semester is over, he can be on campus and working out with the team. The same reason kids can join the team in the summer even if they aren't taking classes til the next semester.

You posted this hours after it was already changed. Dude, you have to stop drinking so heavily on Saturday nights.
First if all, it's a free country. My Saturday nights belong to ME.

Secondly, I'm old and I hate change when I'm used to a particular system. So I still use tapatalk, which is sometimes unreliable. Even though the thread title changed when I'm IN the thread, the title in the notifications list still says "will not" as of this morning.

Now if you'll excuse me, I didn't finish last night's bottle...
