    5 stars don't matter once they hit campus. 180 lbs? Trucking will happen in the SEC. LOL

    He's a kid from Texas and wants to play for the big fish in his state. Who, by the way, is in the CFP. Anyone truly blame him?

    No, I don’t blame him but it would sure be nice if kids from Florida felt the same way instead of fleeing to Ohio, Georgia, Alabama, Michigan, Colorado, etc.

    Is this when the "we didn't want him anyway" starts?

    No doubt. It was pretty surprising to me that he committed to us in the first place and then stayed committed for that long.

    If it was gonna happen I’m just glad the flip announcement wasn’t held off until he picked up the hat Wednesday. He put us out of our misery, now we just look forward to EW3 and Mizell burning him and the burnt orange Nov 9th 2024.

    No. Seems like the logical choice. Him signing with UF would've been the real headscratcher TBH.

    Not this Gator. They haven't beat us near as much as the gumps or mutts have. I save my true hate for them. :mad:

    I don't ration my "hate..." I have plenty to go around when it comes to other college football teams with smarmy, cheating azz, coaches.
