Ain't gonna complain with another O-lineman. Nape did say he was going to add another QB after the spring, many have speculated it was the '25 kid reclassifying to this year. If that's the case, would the kid come in the summer or wait till the fall?
If it is the reclassification kid he will not see the field regardless of when he is on campus.

Yeah, we fvked up in the portal again. We lost out on DB, Antonio Carter. We are taking way too long to bring in portal kids. They are not like high school recruits. They make decisions quickly. We took so long to bring him in for an OV that he committed to Notre Dame before he even got to us for his scheduled OV.

We’ve seen this happen with like three or four portal recruits the cycle. Napier needs to get that in check.

This is Florida. We take who we want, and we slow roll players bc we are the best. Those lesser tier schools like bama and Georgia might move quickly, but not us. We have a standard to uphold!

Heard he was in the middle of putting together his film for our staff, got fed up and decided to pull the trigger for ND

He literally just transferred to a new HS. Who does that if they aren't intent on attending and playing there? Yet the rumors keep coming...
His dad is the coach at the new school. He followed him there for spring ball. He goes to college classes not HS. The transfer is irrelevant.

Mertz was likely our third option. Pratt fell thru for whatever reason, McCall had credit issues, so then that left Mertz. He’s a game manager for us. If the defense is top 50 and the OL shows up, we’ll have a pretty decent season. Pratt or McCall could’ve made a huge jump, so we’ll have to settle for small progress.

Why in the world didn't we go after sanders?

no clue, but I have a feeling that we were all in on Pratt and when that fell apart, then Sanders wasn't an option. But entirely possible that he didn't pan out in the eval process.

I'm really not upset with the prospect of Mertz. He's played a bunch and I don't think we'll ask much of him. His supporting cast at Wisconsin was atrocious. If he can play more like a poor man's Trask and hit the short and intermediaries on time, I think we can be very successful.

Utah - Cam Rising probably won't be trusting his knee this early if he plays at all. Toss up
McNeese - Easy win
Tennessee - At home, Milton at QB. I think we actually win
Charlotte - Win
Kentucky - Should be a win
Vandy - less mistakes and should be a win
USCe - calling this a toss up, but I think we win
Georgia - Not ready yet, taking an L
Arky - Solid opponent at home. Think the crowd brings us home, but they have a seasoned QB
LSU - Further ahead of the curve than we are...L
Mizzou - Should be a W, but this one's always tricky
FSU - Think we keep Travis in check. W at home, mainly due to the crowd.

This all assumes that the Baylor guard heals up and stays. I have 9 wins above, but think we lose 2 to either poor play or key injuries. So I'm going with 7-5.

Mertz isn't a poor man's trask. He's a poor man's Applebee's. QB play is going to suck like t's mom.
In 2017, with Applebees and LDR both averaging less than 7 YPA and combining for 18 TD and 15 INT while rushing for -88 yards, we won 9 games and wound up ranked 14th.

That would be a modest step forward at this point. If our defense isn’t historically bad again, it’s quite possible.
