Winning will fix everything!

I am impressed by the number of quality recruits who seem to look past last years train wreck.

+1

We've lost offensive players that could produce due to the product WM was pushing on the field over the past several recruiting cycles. Now that Roper has arrived and with the up tempo/put points on the board type of offensive we should be able sign playmakers. And with our dominating defense we should win the East every year and be in the picture for the playoff.

If we put any kind of decent product on the field this year our recruiting will take care of itself. The fact that we had the year we did and still recruit at the top tells you all you need to know. These kids are buying what the coaches are selling, and if results follow we will get back to cherry picking blue chips.

Thanks for sharing! I agree that winning will keep recruiting strong. As others have said, I think if we can show some significant offensive improvement, offensive recruits will start picking the good guys too.

If the offense can be somewhat exciting or even just watchable obviously we'll have a good season, but also we'd probably pull in the best recruiting class in the nation. If we're good enough for champ to keep his job I think we Atleast get cece and cowart

If we can pull a 10 win season, you'll see a #1 recruiting class.

I read where Holland may not be able to get into UF. He needs to stop with the recruiting process and hit the books.

What Homer J said. Hit the books and cut out the fried chicken!

2016 4 star cornerback/safety Chauncey Gardner flips from the scum to the good guys. Kids 5'11 190 lbs. Camped at Florida, and they offered today immediately flipped.

And he's 1 of 3 CBs we have for 2016. How can we know who we want for CB in 2016 already? They aren't even in their senior year yet. LOL

We are CB U.

 

[alcoholica]

We are CB U.

We're getting there.

If a 2016 kid is locking down 2015 guys at camps, that's how he gets the offer. i think all the 2016 CBs are 5'11 or taller that we have committed, not positive though

 

[spook]

There is no excuse for our recruiting to not be at the top every year. None.

 

[8802Gator]

We need some linebackers. I know we are going to a nickel defense more and more, but in our 2014-2016 classes we have 11 defensive backs and 0 linebackers. Good thing is we are in the mix for some very good lbs this year.

Kid looks to have a body type similiar to Duke Dawson. I think he's an awesome flip.

Roquan Smith, Adonis Thomas, and Jeffrey Holland. These are 3 kids that we're really pushing for.

I guess that's probably a reasonable gauge, but I just find it hard to believe a top tier school make a serious scholly offer to a high school junior. A lot can happen in a year. Some other kid under the radar could blossom into the next VH3 and you already have 11 CBs offered. Seems crazy to me.

Some stuff never changes.
