    I'm still some pages behind (10-12) in this thread but I can give everyone a couple reasons why all this is important:

    1. Recruits, their families, extended families, friends, girlfriends and boyfriends, before making the biggest decision of their young lives and worse, after they are fully Gators, DO read these Gator Country free side boards. Much more than apparently some of you want to believe. I know for a fact they do.

    2. Being constantly negative is not what most Gators enjoy reading about the school and program they love. Many won't dare come to OGTs (but those will be changing this year) and have mostly stopped visiting the boards (hopefully that will change).

    With all that said . . . there has been a definite improvement in the tone and substance of our free side over the past year.

    Thanks!

    We will have a shot to fill his spot with another quality HS kid. Not sure who that will end up being but hopefully it’s some one like Carrie.

    Not necessarily, there are a lot of good rb out there And I could care less where they come from. To me it's all about bang for the buck

    Quote from an article I read: Ivory played quarterback and linebacker last season at East Los Angeles College. One defense, he recorded 8 sacks, 12.5 tackles for loss, 2 forced fumbles and 3 fumble recoveries in 10 games as a freshman.

    Nah. You can’t lock down Florida if you can’t lock down Gainesville for Christ sake

    Thank you, ET. It's so simple yet a few people here refuse to understand what it means to be positive, in a good way, on these boards. I can't wait to prove all the haters wrong about how good our team will be next year compared to last year. It's happening and I am fully ready to see that improvement.

    Well locking down Florida ain't gonna happen, and Gville has little to do with that regardless. Some kids love the hometown school, some can't wait to leave, and then there's NIL. Overpaying a RB simply isn't good business in this era, and this kid has already left Gville so there's no sentimental pull

    Yes, he is a great one and would fit us well, but I don't see anyone this year who will be the key to an offense. Getting the OL and TE right is going to determine CBN's success.

    Right. That's how I feel. Losing Bowens hurts, but if we can replace that loss with suring up the OL with HS recruiting (which continues to be a sore spot imo), then UF could plug anyone at RB and keep it moving.

    We have a stable of rbs that will get us through the next couple years. Need to keep ‘em coming but we definitely have higher priorities to fill.

    And if it comes down to budget, the line is more important.
