    The "winner" in all of this: Josh Pate.

    Sure got everyone to talk about him for a while.

    Isn't there some kind of rule about transfers to other SEC schools having to sit regardless? If so, that might have slowed the poaching among SEC schools.

    Not really. Colorado maybe, but when you build a team that’s 95% mercenary transfers, I think that’s to be expected. Just saying 10-30% nationwide makes you look stupid as 30% on a national scale was never happening. Even the low end of that was unlikely on a national scale for the spring window.

    Everyone knows players are going to move, nil is a factor, and tampering is happening. The rest of it is just hyperbolic nonsense to generate clicks. The anonymous source stuff across the board with all these hacks is tiresome. I know more than you, but I can’t tell you what, why, or who told me. Just believe me. Then when it never happens, they just move right into the next overblown nothingburger story. I don’t know why anyone clicks on any of their shit, and definitely don’t know why anyone circulates it and lets these hacks get paid for this nonsense.

    Is there a depth chart anywhere that will show where we stand heading into summer?

    Had to revive this old thread! Looks like the Gators played sleeper in the transfer portal and with minimal activity managed to haul in some huge desperately needed upgrades, landing several of the top players at their respective positions. Napier deserves an "atta boy" for how he navigated our offseason recruiting, after being essentially labelled a "dead-man-walking" coach for finishing the season with 5 losses. This is way harder to do when your working from 18-19 the past 3 years or a position of strength like Bammers, leghumpers, etc.!

    I wonder if he rode into the portal on his NIL promo scooter.

    If that link did not work, I would swear that you found some good stuff to smoke.

    I guess he was barking up the wrong tree or at the wrong dog.
