WR room 2025

Going to be a lot of fun watching them bond and work and see who emerges. With Lagway any one of them can break out.

Once he matures and can call plays and RPO like a beast we'll be scoring a ton.

Tre Wilson at 100% I do believe would have given us an element of dynamism that would have made our offense look much better and keep defenses reeling. I hope he comes back strong.

 

Agreed. Plus the O-Line will be experienced (with some depth too) and the RBs very dangerous . . . so things can all work together to really start clicking in 2025. But your thread is calling attention to the excellent WR room and I am drooling just thinking about spreading the field with these guys.

 

It looks very talented yet none are proven to be as good as Reidel, Hilliard, nor Green just yet.

 

I think we are making big assumptions here. The freshmen are freshmen. Wilson has never had more than 500 yards in a season. Sturdivant has great potential but the production has not been there. Mizell has been a spot player at best so far. How can we compare them to Ike,reidel and quezzie yet…no way.

 

And perhaps Johntay Cook II as well, according to some outlets

 

Agree, but we should have at least a decent running game, and with Lagway delivering the ball, I would expect at least one more to step up.

 

Im not worried about the receivers. Some will step up. Its more on Kagway to take that next step. If Lagway is fire, someone will catch em.

 

A couple of major recruiting sites are adding crystal balls for him to come to UF, and the reasoning is he had a one-one-one with DJ and was quite impressed! We shall see.

 

Imo we need a big upgrade at WR coach (never been a big fan of Billy G.) and an OC for this to happen. I see nothing in this group that compares to the great group of WRs recruited and developed in the 9Os for ex. Napier who grew up with the wishbone offense is on record as saying “edge blocking” as the most important trait of WRs. WTHeck? We need more speed and wide open receivers again. Definitely psyched about Dallas coming.
Regardless of my non-humble opinion, I think you put your finger on the most important position group next year if we want to make the playoffs. We are set at OL QB and loaded at RB.

 

Expect 1-2 to transfer out in the spring. Too many mouths to feed the ball to.

 

Yet.
Agreed.
Their offense was a pass, pass, pass sprint draw offense. More opportunities.
We do not have bonafide all Americans. Most don’t. I do believe we have talent. A lot of talent.
I, also, don’t count my chickens before they hatch.
While looking too far forward is a cautionary tale, I submit, downplaying our current talent because our 2 1/2 years of lack of a highly skilled quarterback who could actually try to follow an offensive game plan is not a sufficient reason to write it off. As with all things, most of us will know it when we see it. The rest are oblivious or working some harda$$ everyone suks, players and fans, but are just too stupid to know it. Those are the ones who offer nothing but negativity.

 

I remember a couple years ago when mizell, Wilson and Jean were freshman and I think Shane compared them to that group. None have yet to really reach that status, so I'm going to hold off on telling any lies until they go for like 300 against Miami next year haha
We are due for at least 1 guy to reach 1k yards in a season, right?

 

With a qb with the arm / accuracy and an OC willing to call it, yeah we’re due.

 

Thats more up to DJ i would think. One of those guys has to be capable of being on the other end. Wilson has the goods, can he stay healthy. He seems to be dinged up with AR and had surgery last year. His style of pkay foes lead to contact.

 

Pass pass, pass , yet when we really needed to win, Freddie ran the rock against Tennessee . We werent one dimensional at all. If i have any criticism for the greatest gator ever, it would be tgat he didnt run as much as he should at times( the loss to Auburn comes to mind). We have that now also and im hiping DJ can put it all together because I believe the pieces are there.
Besides DJ development, the line really needs to come together. If we have a great oline, this could get really special.

 

I hope Wilson recovers quickly and fully and shows up in spring with an extra 15 pounds of muscle.

 

I agree. Only one of them that has done anything is Tre and he’s been hurt.

 

Mizell has looked decent on limited opportunities. Toney always had the ability to run with the ball but took a few years to learn to run routes properly and get open.

 

Honestly, does it matter if one guy hits 1,000 yards vs. four guys hitting 250 or two guys hitting 500 yards? more often than not not, when a receiver hits 1,000 yards, it means his team has no other receivers, or no running game. I think we have the horses...
