Recruiting the 2023 football class.

Did they add 90,000 or so screaming Gator fans too? Then it will NOT matter...

 

SHAME ON YOU - Undercuttin us by 900........

 

I posted the words 'or so' just in case someone accused me of shortchanging our fans... Lol.

I heard it's almost a sellout game... Too bad I have to see in on a TV (nice one) and not in real life.

 

I don't know what happened before July but I am loving this new ruthlessness from the Gators on the recruiting trail. Even if we don't land them the fact that the effort has been turned up to 11 makes me so excited

 

I agree Zilla, and it's so nice you are back on our side...........

 

Do you want to know who we might be getting to commit to the Gators next? Watch for that recruit to drop in ratings... I noticed James Smith is still a 5* star of the composite, but 247's in house has him dropped to a 4* star now... There is chatter about he and Russaw as a two for one deal and that might bode well for the Gators... we shall see.



New future home?

 

I think you've earned this theme song...

 

Russaw too?

 

I didn't see him mentioned, but He has expressed a ton of interest (he's said it in his own words he likes the gators) so I would not be surprised if he transferred there too.

 

That article is from July of last year. He's back at Carver.

"James Smith is back in Alabama after transferring from G.W. Carver High School in Montgomery, Ala., to IMG Academy. At the time, Smith said "business- and experience-wise," the move made sense for him. However, he returned back to Alabama and is now one of the top overall prospects in the state. Smith plans on majoring in engineering in college. He lists basketball as his hobby. His father, Charles, is a firefighter. His mother, Malecia Smith, works as a beautician. Smith’s sibling is Jaylen."

 

I see, thanks. Even still, he is very interested in the Gators and so is his Bff Russaw, who seems to really like the Gators.

 

Lost me at Chad Simmons

 

Rick. You are ahead of me on this but YES,
Smith and Russaw are supposedly a "package deal".

Quite a bit of buzz with Podcasters about these two 5 stars, and UF picking up steam
and traction with them.

Bammers will get a good "hardy harr harr" from me considering the non stop poaching of Florida, some well deserved payback and one hell of a coup if CBN pulls it off.

Blue chip Billy is on a role and we have some damn fine facilities to show off.

It may not be out of the question.

We would have one helleva defensive class if those two and McClain commit. Some suggest that would vault us to #3.

Not bad to think about -

 

Yes

 

Florida has a hell of a lot better Engineering college than Bama. So come on down James

 

There is some chatter about Keon Keeley decommitting from Notre Dame... I hope the Gators are well positioned in Keeley's visitation plans, in the very near future.

Okay... we need for Keeley and Freeling to come to Gainesville for our September 3rd game against Utah.

Edited: The chatter is true. Keeley decommited from Notre Dame.

5-star EDGE Keon Keeley decommits from Notre Dame

 

Multiple CBs to Bama.

 

Yep, thats what I hear too.....well, I would gladly take Smith and Russaw in a pinch, and be VERY HAPPY!

 

Why I love this staff.
