If we lose blades then we probably don't get the Johnson kid from cali that plays linebacker.

Losing Cali kids? Am I supposed to be upset?

Somebody's gotta play linebacker

 

[Swamp Donkey]

It isn't going to be him.

If we get Solomon it changes a lot for us in terms of momentum, but he isn't announcing until Jan...

I feel like Blades will stick. He has been very pro UF on twitter for a long time.

We need some positive momentum!

When I saw the Newberry kid play in person against my high school. They line the kid up at tight end too. He's got good hands and its pretty funny watching 150lb highschoolers try to tackle him.Anyhow he was chopping on his way to the endzone on his couple of TD's.

Don't get anybody started on a Dlineman playing TE! We done need any of that ridiculousness again.

Blades is all gator. I'm not worried.

 

[CGgater]

Yeah, he did get kind of pissy, didn't he?

To be fair, some folks on here are experts at eliciting that particular type of response.

 

[Gator Fever]

Mac and staff in full court press to start flipping these 4 star recruits.

 

[BluH2OGtr]

Blades isn't flipping....expect him to be starting next year at CB

Are you assuming, or are you just mentioning the coincidence of the last name?

Anybody remember the days when a UF coach went to visit a recruit at home or school it usually meant a verbal commit later the same day??? I wonder if these guys have ever considered taking any sales/marketing type seminars or classes? Maybe do some role playing with their children? Whatever their pitch is it's non productive..... When I was in sales and not doing well it meant I didn't eat, maybe if these guys were to understand that concept and see it's effect on their career longevity they could pick it up a notch or 2....

Times have changed for sure...avg. 20 points a game for 6 years will do that

Product does account for a lot but there is an old theory(I consider it a fact) that people buy from people they like/respect.....

My career is in sales actually, and I agree with that statement 1000%

Its great to recruit Cali kids because one might stick but that's a loooooooobg distance and those kids hardly ever come out this way. If we lose him it's to the casualty of recruiting Cali kids more than it is our staff sucking. At least that's what I'm convincing myself to believe
