Recruiting 2024 Recruiting Thread: Huge OV weekend June 2nd

[GatorJ]

FSU has been saying for months that #1 CB Desmond Ricks has been a silent. He just released his Top 10. And guess who’s missing? EVEN BETTER YET - look
Who replaced them. JSU!

Btw - he’ll be at the UF bbq on July 30th.

Billy Blue Chip better get up to GA. This state is loaded for 2024 recruits.

Buford alone has 3 top recruits.

Jaylen Heyward announcement

Should be a top schools list and UF should be included. https://www.on3.com/db/jaylen-heyward-151579/

Rumor is he’s committing to us. Probably will eventually be a top 20-25 kid in Florida.

Five-star prospects, No. 1 and No. 2 WRs in 2024 class, set to visit the Gators

A quartet of highly-regarded prospects from South Florida... This is premium content. Please subscribe to view.

Both the number 1 and 2 receivers are from South Florida.

Strangely enough they are both probably trending toward Ohio State. Ohio State is absolutely cherry picking Florida right now. Even bigger than Alabama.

Not ‘24, but ‘23– 4 star QB Chris Parson just decommitted. Deuces! Replacing him with a Kanell hoser

A 5* QB is calling UF his dream school, so that's....nice.

@zach_goodall: QB @DerekLagway is making his way back to Florida, his "dream school," this weekend for Friday Night Lights and the #Gators recruit cookout.

"I'm only going to Florida this week, I'm excited to get back up there."

So we are potentially in an NIL bidding war with aTm? Hmmmm……I just don’t see this ending well for us.

And Texas.
And Alabama.

I suspect he won't want to take the chance of sitting behind Manning for two or more years, so Texas wouldn't concern me much.

Very true. I'm just throwing them into the mix because of locale and their deep pockets.

But, since you bring it up, unless Texas' NIL deal to Manning breaks their bank, and I doubt it will, it would be unwise of Sark to NOT bring in more talent to push Manning.

Getting a 5* QB really helps with recruiting of other positions. UGA seemed to snap up most all 5-star QBs in the SE over a 4 year period, AND managed them badly, but did pretty good with their recruiting of other skill players based on having them committed and on campus. It also prevented (or slowed) them from going to their SEC rivals.

In the end, I hope he's a Gator but in the day of NIL, never discount oil money.

I have no doubt Sark would love to get this guy and will recruit him, but it would be foolish of Lagway to consider Texas. Manning would have to prove to be a complete bust for him to not be given every chance to get and keep the QB job, He's too high profile for anything else. There's no doubt Lagway would push Manning, which would be good for Manning and Texas, but what's in it for Lagway?

No many places have pulled of what Ugly did in getting Eason, Fromm, and Fields in back to back to back classes.
