    We don’t want any douchenozzle that would go to the puppies. Our rb coach has recruited quite well.

    The school wasn’t worried about Etienne. He wanted to jump in a bandwagon. It had nothing to do with a coach is my point.

    And I’m saying gator coaches literally would not let that happen because they would instill pride amongst the players to rep that logo. So yes, it has everything to do with the coaches which is my entire point. ETN was an example, that’s it.

    I don’t buy it. Some kids just don’t give a shit about team, they are out for themselves and he is the poster boy.

    Then they wouldn’t be recruited in the first place. Or pushed out rather than leaving for UGA on their own

    I’m sure it’s not an exact science and ETN is talented enough to take a chance on I would guess. I would definitely prefer to have somebody that bled orange and blue, but it is what it is. We will lose a certain amount just like all the big boys do

    I hate triscuit but I love tangents. However for your consideration.... let's not crap on commitment threads. It just feels wrong.

    I’m beginning to think you don’t like any positive news or opinions on our Gators Crusher

    Will be a tough recruiting year with a coach who will likely be fired. Not sure we can salvage this one. Even if Napier picks up one or two more wins I’m not sure it helps much.

    agreed, it was always gonna be rough to hold onto commits since his job is on the line. I don’t consider anyone “committed” to us at this time. Only truly solid one i feel is VB3

    Hope it gets better. But if it's a mess into ESD, we could lose errrbody who has a better option.

    Seems like last year we were desperate end of cycle and had to pay extra to retain a few guys. Not sure it's even worth it this cycle. Let em go. New coach can rebuild through portal.
