    The tweet has since been deleted. Alluded to “academics” being a possible issue??

    I saw a booster saying they are replacing Hayes with a better LB from the portal. Hopefully this is our guy. I also thinks it’s interesting that Scooby got in the portal considering he is probably a starter next year.

    I would say it's more likely than not he comes here.

    That’d be great!!
    A year of strength and Conditioning and his talent….that’s a big LB with starter ready size at 6”4 241.

    If this Bama fan is right about these Bama portal entry’s, a guy like Qua Russaw would tick me off because he shoulda just came to UF from the start last year but whatever

    For real, I thought UF had a real shot for Qua and his nosegard buddy.

    yep James Smith. You know, we aren’t the only fans who think this about recruits (in what i’m about to say), but there ARE certain recruits where you KNOW they’re making the wrong decision scheme/style wise picking another school over your school. Russaw and in this cycle, Waller, are two i think will not pan out at Bama (Russaw) or Auburn (Waller) had they went to UF.

    hell i felt that Kamari Wilson wasn’t a fit for UF so i wasn’t surprised he didn't pan out. Some highly rated guys you just KNOW aren’t going to work out at your school

    Might be taking a pay cut if he heads to the NFL as an UDFA?

    Pup had 0 missed tackles last year. Pretty impressive for a Freshman that played significant snaps.
