It's gonna take some time to get recruiting back to where it was, and I have no idea why you guys think we should be sniffing anywhere near the top 10 when we haven't been ranked that high for I don't know how many years.
Per 247 our 2012 class was 5th, 2013 class we were 3rd, 2014 we were 4th, 2015 22nd, 2016 14th 2017 we will see. I'm not asking for top 10 class heck 15th would be nice.

We're simply not the same Florida we were, but with a few more good seasons we may start rising back up. McElwain is doing what he can, with what he has.
I get what you're saying but it sounds an awful like complacency and I'm sure you didn't intend that or mean it that way. A few more good seasons and we may start rising up doesnt work for me. I'm a fan just like you but I'm just not seeing it currently but I hope you are right.

07 I apologize...seriously. You have a right to opinions and so do I but you havent really called me out or bashed me. But I bleed O&B AND I have been on other sites getting my dander up...what you posted or others is freaking mild compared to another board.
Here is what Im trying to get across...ITS NOT NSD yet. The posters on boards are just having kneejerk reactions and they may be in for a big surprise...or not. You and I & Atl or Slayer dont know what NSD will bring...do we? Why curse everything now?
BTW on GC insider Andrew did post something interesting about Blades...he was getting a ton of tweets and also saw our fans tweeting about how Mac/coaches sucked...so give that a moment to sink in
I personally think NSD will come and the damn restless will see they didnt have faith....or not. Again I apologize for what I posted...just take a short walk on a long pier

So he came in and took us to 22nd when it was 100+, last year he had 14th (what you were asking for) and this year we still have a few signees and I'm sure we'll be top 15.
Over the past two years, McElwain has had nine players named to Freshman All-SEC teams. Wide receiver Antonio Callaway, linebacker David Reese and offensive tackle Jawaan Taylor also made the Freshman All-American teams by FWAA and Pro Football Focus, more than former coach Will Muschamp had during his four years at UF.
As I was saying, dude is doing more with less, and when he has more talent, he'll be a monster coach.
It's just a shame he has to rebuild the program from the ground up.
