I'm not much of a betting man. And I truly hope Mac works out. I think he's a good coach. He just needs to figure out recruiting.

He will get there. Our recruiting would have been much better had Grier not screwed up IMO

So poor recruiting falls on the shoulders of a guy who's played 6 games and essentially left the team last October. Wow!

Is Grier the reason for all 3 years of recruiting?

We were on fire with Grier after the Ole Miss game and would have ended the season much better than we did. Recruiting is about momentum and we had none at the end of last year.

Mac hasn't been here 3 years.....and his first class he had like 2 months to pull in.

Try not to be so dense.

What kind of momentum did Georgia have last year? Treon beat them. They fired their coach and hired a guy that's never been a head coach. Yet they're rank 6 right now. Is it Grier's fault that Kirby Smart is recruiting so well?

What about Jim Harbaugh? What has Michigan won in the past 20 years? They're ranked fifth and they have to recruit a crap cold Midwest.

What about Mark Richt who was fired and took over at a school that has never won its conference? They are now ranked 9th. Is that Grier's fault?

Heck Mississippi State, Rutgers, Iowa and even Muschamp are all ranked higher than us right now. What kind of "momentum" do those teams have? Is all that because of a 6 game starter?

None of Miami, UGA, or Michigan went through what we did with Muschamp. We've had YEARS of complete ineptitude on offense. It's going to take some convincing (on the field) to start landing bigger fish on O.

And I'm not surprised Michigan is doing what they are doing with an EX NFL COACH who has been to a Super Bowl. Mac was an unknown as a HC and it'll take him some time.

As for this year, do you really think Miss St, Rutgers, Iowa and USC finish above us? Again, I would set up a friendly wager if you'd like. Chill out dude the season hasn't even started yet.

Haha dude Rutgers and Mississippi State each have 15 3*. Rivals places a lot on quantity over quality.

"Chill Out"! I posted a wonderful story about Tebow and you made it in to a rant about McElwain and Grier.

I'm as chill as it gets brah. If you didn't make that little comment about Mac this would have all been avoided. This is your doing

Please don't refer to Michigan as the Midwest...

While I agree that we have to allow Mac some time; he does make a good point that the whole "momentum" thing is bull****....

Recruits just aren't impressed by guys like Summers and Nord and even Mac to an extent; they don't draw up any excitement. Those are the facts.

Now our talent evaluation and coaching is top notch but to not entertain any thoughts that perhaps our staff just sucks at recruiting is being more dense than one questioning it.

Yep there is no excuse for recruiting at certain positions right now.

Bull. We haven't had a good offense at UF in YEARS. You cannot tell me that doesn't play a role.

It's hilarious that the negative nellies are still b!tching about recruiting. Last year it was "The only reason we are high in the recruiting ranks is due to us having so many 3*'s!" While this year it's "Look at all these teams above us in the rankings! Mac is taking quality players like we wanted him too but we aren't high in the rankings anymore so let's b!tch some more!" It's ridiculous. Make up your minds.

We offered a 3* guy who just tore his ACL...

Hardly quality....
