I may have still got it wrong. I dontthink UT is definet but this is one that will go to signing day regardless
Tennessee is loading up on DBs after what we have coming back next year at WR. I believe Jeremiah Smith will be a Gator next season.
Have four. Rivals rates three as 3 star. Not too concerning. hijack: I'm thinking how many 4 star DBs we've had over the past few seasons NOT play well. What IF our WRs and DB groups play on an entirely different level this season? Jeremiah Smith, why?
I guess it’s the money that they are getting paid to go to Ohio State. We had a first round receiver last year too. It’s not like he’s the only coach in America that can coach wide receivers?

They've won 2 championships in 25 years all because of their run game and defense. Their WRs get great stats due to their weak schedule but fall short in big games.

Football is a line of scrimmage game. It’s nice to have great talented players but if you get your ass whipped up front, all the receivers in the world are not going to help.
I really started following UF In earnest in ‘87. I remember those early 90’s years thinking wow! This team is so close! Seeing some of the names posted above bring back memories. Thx. Nattiel Ernie Mills Simmons Willie Jackson Jack Jackson Harrison Houston Then of course Ike, reidel, doering, quez and co
