Recruiting 2024 Early Signing Day Thread

[GatorJ]

This is what happens when you have players that other people want.

Looks like Westphal signed

It looks like we may have a surprise commit. Outside of the ones we know we’ve been targeting.

I think Jaden Baugh and Gregory Smith commit to us. With an outside chance of Favour Edwin.

I have no idea who the surprise one is.

T's mom.

Let's try and avoid trashing the staff in this thread, which is going to be chock-full of good news. Perhaps we could allow our fans to enjoy some positivity for a day or two on at least one small corner of the board. There are hundreds of other threads for the opposite.

You shoulda been in the bball game thread last night!

Are we thinking this isn't happening to everyone?

And maybe we are doing it too? (I hope.....)

No way to spin losing lagway if we do

Again though, we have to take make sure our own house is in order first and foremost. Everything else is side points. Totally within our control.

The problem is is he's going to be eating at the same buffet as us, the one step below Bammer, Ugly, OSU, etc fighting for those same 2nd tier/1B kids.

And he's a good recruiter AND a good coach.

I doubt it will happen right now, but if it did... people will pick apart every piece of his game and then it will be we have Mertz we didn't need him anyway.

I guess he's gonna wait and see if the Gator collective is going to match the Barn's offer. From a purely mercenary perspective, a 5* or high 4* is wise to not sign his NLI first thing in the AM.

Bidding war is on...

 

[Silverback Gator]

Not good. I know, thanks Capt Obvious.

 

[Homer J]

How much money will the Gators spend on re-recruiting the guy who committed?

Give him the money or show him the door.

It's difficult to believe what high school recruiting has become. Maybe there should just be a draft.

We are imploring LJ to sign today, the other schools are asking him to wait and think about it. You can see he’s not listening to our staff.

Nice job Simple, we don’t need a DL coach.

I think Mike Peterson is his position coach.
