Recruiting 2020 Recruiting Thread: Gervon Dexter gets 5th Star on Rivals

[divits]

This does not suck.

 

[LongTooth]

A brief look at the haul so far in the top ten suggests adding Lee will move us to around 5th on rivals if we leap the ducks and Jimbo.

Top five recruiting class? Wut?

 

[Swamp Donkey]

I thought you didn't believe in secret commits?

I dont believe in all of our five star and high 4 star recruits committed to other teams that are #Secret Commits.

Wake me up when we are Top 4 or so, same number of elites at the guys who win trophies.

But I am prepared to call out #TwitterKidnappings if necessary.

I’ve watched Dexter live 3x this fall and agree he’s a DE. Maybe a QT and will grow big enough to play inside on obvious passing downs.

But as of today UF is 13th in rushing defense.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Imteresting though how replacing one of the sucky position coaches appeared to have fixed that position recruiting (DL).

Wish we'd do the same w safety, LB, and RB.

Jalen Lee's commitment news is big in Gator Twitterverse.

I know LB hasn’t been spectacular but our only 5* is one. He’s not as bad as the others two.

Lakeland has several very nice restaurants and a lot of really good ones. The Terrace Hotel is fine dining and 1961 is excellent (although too loud & crowded for that kind of meeting.)

OLB RUSH has been great. ILB has been nonexistent.

He also stinks like Dwag. The Rules at Top Gator are not flexible. Nor am I.

He better be buying the best thing in town. Bring in the running back and then I might believe.

Can't believe Turner is recruiting this well. Pleasantly surprised so far.

TBF, English is still the biggest turd on the staff.

Wingo is projected inside. Agreed it hasn’t been great but I would happily deal with the other two if it meant keeping him.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Wingo is projected inside.

Yes. By Rivals, probably bc that's where we say we MUST play him. Still OLB by 247. And this is the third class, first "ILB project". No bueno.

He has a big frame but he isn't really a hitter that Ive seen. He mostly blitzes and does athletic stuff, very well. I'm just not sure.

I think he is going to be a contributor no matter where he ends up, I just think it might be OLB/Rush (his position now).

Per @Swamp Donkey : 247 doesn’t count. Only rivals.

Sounds like a smart dude.

 

[SeabeeGator]

Sounds like a smart dude.

So we’re in agreement - by the only metric that counts, he’s an ILB.

 

[Gator By Marriage]

He’s not, but he is funny.

 

[URGatorBait]

He’s not, but he is funny.

meh

 

[Gatorbait25]

That’s a good one . I see him more
Like Ray Mac than Joe but a solid comparison .
I think JB ends up a quality end or tackle for us. Kinda like Ray but likely sticks at End with Dex at tackle.
