The Official Offensive Line OL recruiting thread

Would be nice to have a surprise commit of this type. Even Adams is said to be a LSU lean. Not sure we are top choice for any of the remaining OL on our board.

 

Haven’t we heard that last part before ? Yikes. Billy gone have to get those two OL Coaches some Crootin help !!

 

Or somebody’s gonna have to bust out the Wallet

 

I’m just greatly concerned that UF admin will never loosen their stance on the ‘people’ that can do the big NIL deals doing them like is happening at other schools.

 

But we can play in bowl games so there that.

 

Problem he commits two months before his scheduled visit to UF.

 

Getting Freeling would be a major coup. I’d be fine finishing with him and two three star OL.

 

Sad but true

 

I don’t think Harris will finish a 3* he is going to get a bump

 

Looking through next years rankings we are likely going to need to reach out of the state if we want some top tier lineman. I know it is over a year away and things can change but as of now the highest rated lineman in the state isn’t in the top 200 overall. I’m not counting the IMG guy because he is from Mississippi. Just like this year Florida seems to be struggling to produce top tier lineman in state. This year the top in state lineman is Rod Kearney, if you remove Lucas Simmons, who isn’t really a Floridian, the next highest lineman is Kirkland and then Clay Wedin who is down around 300. I know we all talk about owning Florida recruiting but it’s looking like that’s not going to be good enough the next couple years.

 

Have you seen scUM's schedule this year. Greg Knox could coach them to a 10-2 record. They play two teams with a pulse - Texas A&M and Clempson.

UNC & Pitt are breaking in new QBs
Duke is duke
UVA & GT - see above

What a joke.

 

Ok..lol. how about showing some realism about the recruits we have gotten to this point

 

Hopefully they get beat by Clemson and A and M..don't they play fsu lol

 

Like the Middle Tenn game - that game is a toss up.

 

We are going to have more o line coaches (2 on field and 3 off field) than o line recruits in the class of 2023. I’m not sure if It is too early to claim the two o line coaches experiment a failure so early but Id think if you cannot recruit elite o linemen with TWO o line coaches, something or someone is wrong in that equation. Others claim having no qb coach and offensive coordinator - Billy is the head coach and OC and QB coach - also hurts qb recruiting and the additional o line coach is likely taking the place of a true on field qb coach.

Lots of recruits who visit say they love the two o line coaches for giving them more opportunities to get coached up and yet..,none of those elite o linemen who make these statements are committing to UF and instead choosing places with only one o line coach, so it can be done.
