I’m curious to know the mood if we go 6-6 again but sign a top 3 class. Given our QB situation right now, I would personally feel pretty great with that scenario.'24 class has the 24th, 30th and 61st ranked players already. Seven more top 100's and we'll be good.

As long as one of the six wins is against the leghumpers.I’m curious to know the mood if we go 6-6 again but sign a top 3 class. Given our QB situation right now, I would personally feel pretty great with that scenario.
Are you serious? This place will always come unhinged if we don’t win it all. It’s just what we do!I’m curious to know the mood if we go 6-6 again but sign a top 3 class. Given our QB situation right now, I would personally feel pretty great with that scenario.
Plenty of people were still bitching during the Meyer years when we were winning it all.Are you serious? This place will always come unhinged if we don’t win it all. It’s just what we do!
I would say, it depends on how incompetent the staff looks. Can they install a two minute offense and try to score before halftime? That's just one thing. There are more.Are you serious? This place will always come unhinged if we don’t win it all. It’s just what we do!
I loved the defense and special teams but never really thought much of the offense (unsustainable without a generational Zonka/QB and lightning quick WR/RB).Plenty of people were still bitching during the Meyer years when we were winning it all.
Like installing a third quarter offense? Or a redzone offense?I would say, it depends on how incompetent the staff looks. Can they install a two minute offense and try to score before halftime? That's just one thing. There are more.
It was bad, right? Our staff beat nobody, but yes, we won some games. Another season of that and it's going to make their talent acquisition difficult, or more expensive.Like installing a third quarter offense? Or a redzone offense?
If we only win 3 and they are against UT, UG, and FSU, I'm good.As long as one of the six wins is against the leghumpers.

Sounds great! When do you take over for Strictlin?Looking back at the 2023 class, it's interesting to see how close UF was to a solid group by every measure.
In the end, there were just misses in a couple position groups.
If you add Jaden Rashada, Lucas Simmons, Jordan Hall (LB from IMG), and Kayden McDonald the final score is 283.60. That would be the #8 class.
I think UF was not too far off on closing with these players and they would have made the class solid in every position group.
The class would have 24 commits with 8 in the (1-150 range) and 8 in the (151-300 range)
I think if the Gators can reach these minimum targets in each class going forward, the final ranking will be between #3 - #10 every year.
Years with no composite five-star commits, like this year, would be capped in the #7-10 range
However, with five-star recruits added, higher rankings become possible.
If the 2024 class added Jerrick Gibson and Charles Lester III with high to medium rated players covering all position groups mixed in a relatively uniform distribution, things greatly improve.
Using the 247 2024 class calculator, with those three 5-stars included with 8+ top 150 and 8+ top 300 and minimum 22 commits, the score ranges from 290-300+.
That would have been good for the #4 class in 2023 and likely similar in 2024.
8+ < 150 16+ < 300 with total commits > 22 seem like reasonable yearly targets to return Gators football to elite status.
Suppose that the 2024 class ended up at #4 and 2025 at #6 (fewer five stars), joining the 2023 class which I view as around #8 in quality (not quantity).
#8, #4, #6, those three classes back to back are only a good QB away from being contenders. DJ Lagway definitely looks like he could be that guy.
In order for UF to pull in consistent top-5 and occasional top-3 classes like before under Urban, I think several things have to change in the arena:
1. Florida legislation needs to be less restrictive
2. The UF admin needs to be more compromising when it comes to sports and what it takes to win
3. The coaching staff needs to be able and willing to do everything that top competitors are doing at Bama/OSU/Ga
4. The Donors and Boosters need to organize efficiently and effectively at all levels to execute a shared vision with a strong desire to win. The resources are there.
Let's not run off our first new poster with half a brain in God knows how long.Sounds great! When do you take over for Strictlin?
Wouldn't you want him to replace Strictlin? Get with the program.Let's not run off our first new poster with half a brain in God knows how long.
