Florida has had "good" classes but not the "best of the best".


2010 - 1st in recruiting
2011 - 12th in recruiting
2012 - 4th in recruiting
2013 - 3rd in recruiting
2014 - 9th in recruting

247 numbers

That's all with a coach that quit, didn't quit, quit again, a first year coach picking up the pieces and 4-8

Good is a good term for our recruiting I suppose. Nothing great about it.

When Clowney was a freshman he was 2nd team behind 3* Melvin Ingram .... who had the experience and earned his way into a high 1st round draft pick.

What was UF's record vs lowly SCAR during that period of time? 1-2? Not sure it proves anything one way or the other except ... I think Muschamp was careless to so adamantly make the statement that he did.

Great coaches recruit'em and then coach'em-up.

Great recruiters do not always make great coaches.

I'm not sure I realized just how out-of-touch with the chemistry of the game Muschamp is until I heard him make the statement ... which immediately helped me to understand why the Gators mailed-it-in against Ga Southern.

To be honest, those numbers are good but don't exactly make me think Muschamp is anything better than a good recruiter-- his classes have been slightly worse and far more unbalanced than the man who preceded him.

You guys seem a little spoiled.



4th best on Average for the last 4 years on rivals



4th best on Average on 247 composite


Teams vary from year to year on recruiting wise unless you are Bama. I think its your coach and not the talent.
