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

[Oscar the G]

Cause they didn’t hurt against UK/Mizzou/UGA last year?

You think it was a numbers issue? Or A talent issue? Or a focus/mindset issue?

 

[JDW]

I’m gonna go with the first two...the mindset was there some games sometimes it wasn’t...we were a truly feast/famine type of team but I think it mostly had to do w talent/numbers with the exception being the mizzou game...we lost to UGA twice like they said...no excuses but we were demoralized

 

[Oscar the G]

I think we had plenty of numbers this past season. I think the talent is adequate. I think they weren't used to working hard, or smart, or as a team. I dont believe they had bought in fully early in the year.

Now in a year or two, we appear to be heading into a numbers issue.

Yeah, interior DL numbers are a dumpster fire. This is going to hurt, very soon.

I wasn’t aware that we used interior DL anymore

I could see that...personal opinion aside the talent was still only a year into S&C as well

Yes we do. We use them to make UGA pay more $ to get them by extending them offers.

Cold War tactic? Make them spend their way into collapse

 

[BMF]

I still expect Dante Lang to move back to DL. We have numbers at TE and we are probably taking two in the 2020 class, so it would be a good time to move him over. But probably won't happen until next spring.

 

[JDW]

And the plot thickens...he’s scheduled to be at Clemson’s spring game with no more scheduled UF visits...better focus on Lee and Smith for now

 

[UFHealthGator]

He said UF was his “dream school” so fingers crossed...

Kiss... of.... death.

Lol

 

[JDW]

Well you gotta love the willingness to fight regardless

So instead of recruiting him harder and fighting you want the staff to give up?

A.J. Henning, 5'10 175lbs, 28 offers, CB's to Notre Dame:

Oh... it gets a lot worse before it gets better.

We are going to be playing true freshman.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

It was personnel, plain and simple. We put tiny pass rushers on the field at every position up front and left the runstoppers on the bench.

And for some reason we played two shytty safeties.

I think it’s just more of the same that we’ve been expecting. I hope they can get all the guys they want, but I have zero expectations

But... but... but....

I heard 2019 recruiting class was gon be off the chain!

I mean 2020!!!!!

I guess I mean 2021.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

I'd like to hire staff that don't suck at recruiting.

If we stick with them, eventually Bammer Clemson and Ugly will be full and we can hope for some quality leftovers.

Quality Leftover U.

It's a good point. We can put four 210 lb Rushbackers on the OL and just speed rush/ blitz every play.
