[jereed16]

Dude's got some size to him too...6'2"/230. Welcome aboard.

Great news! Hope he can produce fresh out of the gate for us! It would be nice if he has a good pair of hands as well.

He's also listed as running a 4.37, but you must take that with a grain of salt. If he is that big and that fast, it's strange that he wasn't more sought after. I think Arizona State was his biggest offer besides Florida. If the measurements are correct, and he has any running ability, it appears UF has got a keeper.

Big dude. And what does this mean next to his name? (****) I've only seen ( ) (*) (**) and if we're lucky (***)

Big, strong kid with an extra gear. I love that we're recruiting these kind of backs more consistently now. Can't wait to see this kid play once we have some maulers on the O-line. Here's his Hudl:

It means the new staff has had some time to start developing relationships. Can only get better.

This is a very good commit for us. We've been hoping this for this to happen for about the last month or so.

What will we ever do.....A RB that actually knows how to run, catch and block. Why we haven't seen one of those around these parts in years......

 

[Marianna-FL_Gator]

We're already DBU and now Mac is turning us into RBU to boot. I absolutely love it!

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Helllz to the yeah.

 

[GatorJ]

3 years of eligibility. Nice!

Find your classroom, keep your nose clean and run man run...

I hate to say this because I really like KT, but he may end up spending a lot of his senior season on the bench.....

That's Eddie Lacey size. Skipper is racking up the RB recruits like crazy. Keep up the good work. And a nice article. Guy sounds grounded. http://iowa.scout.com/story/1546317-mcelwain-seals-gator-deal-with-mark-thompson

He damn sure doesn't look slow

 

[aka]

Folks, we got us some backs.

KT hasn't done much at all at UF so that could happen this year in my opinion. Scarlett and Mcgriff are studs who will see a lot of playing time if they know their assignments.

 

[CaribGator]

What? Another offensive player? Mac keeps this up and we won't be able to get 10 DB's in this class, starting to have my doubts that he knows how to run a program.

Most likely that Taylor will be gone after his Junior year.
