    I have no problem with this. As long as it’s not being funded with tax money. I’d like for them to cut most of the administrative fluff too and spread it out amongst the teachers. Those assholes won’t be voting to cut their positions and salaries anytime soon though and they’ll surely build in some more fluff for themselves before they do anything that benefits the kids.

    I'll go one step further. I think their bias is additionally more skewed toward their subscribers, which logic would dictate lean toward the teams currently having lots of success.

    Then why don’t we allocate $50,000 towards subscriptions for every uf employee out of recruiting budget. I know tons of dawgs in Atlanta they are not subscribers. AL and UGA must be funneling more money towards subscriptions. Only thing I can think of

    Recruits have to be enjoying this game tied at start of 4th. Win or lose a good showing and a big win next week and we are good.

    I didn't think Wilson visited and Ffrench was visiting Texas (from reading messages on X, but I have no idea really).

    Not sure who showed or not... From Spivey's article yesterday...

    Official visitors

    Oregon receiver commit Dallas Wilson was on campus last weekend and he plans to return this weekend for an official visit. Wilson is one of the top players in the country and the Gators are fighting hard to flip the Ducks commit. Wilson plans to visit Oregon next weekend so this weekend is huge for the Gators.

    Florida State running back commit Byron Louis visited Gainesville last weekend and he also plans to return this weekend. Louis is a name that the Gators have been monitoring closely this fall and have now turned up the heat on the running back.

    Arizona receiver commit Muizz Tounkara will make his first visit to Gainesville this weekend after the Gators offered in October. Tounkara is a Texas native and someone that has strong interest in the Gators.

    Florida punter commit Hayden Craig has been solid to the Gators since committing over the summer and now he will take an official visit to Florida. Craig is set to enroll in Gainesville in January.



    Unofficial visitors

    Joining the strong list of official visitors this weekend will be some targets on unofficial visits including some guys committed elsewhere.

    Cincinnati offensive line commit Jahari Medlock will be back on campus this weekend for the third time this fall. Medlock is coming off of visiting Georgia Tech but the Gators appear to be the team best positioned to flip Medlock.

    Texas defensive line commit Myron Charles plans to be back in Gainesville for the second straight weekend as the Gators are hoping to make a strong push before signing day. This is going to be a battle down to the wire with the Longhorns.

    Defensive lineman Javion Hilson is another defensive lineman that the Gators are hoping to make a strong run at to finish this cycle. Hilson has been talking to Texas and Texas A&M a lot this fall but the Gators have stayed consistent in his recruitment.

    Linebacker Kellen Wiley will also visit Gainesville this weekend and he’s someone the Gators may offer after seeing him in person. Wiley likes Miami a lot and Texas is also in the mix but the Gators are someone that could make things interesting if they offer.



    Commits coming to town

    Quarterback commit Tramell Jones will be back in the Swamp this weekend to help recruit others and he will be joined by tight end commits Tae’Shaun Gelsey and Micah Jones.

    Defensive line commit Jalen Wiggins and linebacker commit Myles Johnson also plan to be in town and defensive back commit Ben Hanks Jr. is also expected in town.

    Kicker commit Evan Noel is also expected in town for the first time since flipping to the Gators earlier this month.

    After the way the season has been, they would be biblical. All 3 positions are positions of need.

    So do you have any sense whether we've lost our chance since he didn't come on a visit today?

    I don't know exactly but the other day I read that Tampa Bay tech played late yesterday and they were optimistic that they would still make the the noon kickoff game. Maybe that was the issue, but he was at last weeks game so it's not like he hasn't been on campus lately.
