Clearly the strength of UF this year. Solid combination of upper and underclassmen.

Still worried about getting absolutely no pass rush going....Tennessee/Braysus will test that weakness of ours early. Is Neiron Ball really expected to start early on? Easley as well the first game? Where's Mike Taylor, Bostic, Okine, JBrown(injured again, I know), Ajagbe, Gorman, etc? Where are you getting this from Kajun? And I'd be really surprised if we see Powell back before the bowl game.....

With the O-line that A&M has this year and the type of offense CKS will be running, I would think you'll be tested before Tennessee if you're worried about a weak pass rush

I REALLY wish we would have closed on Damien Jacobs. I have a feeling he is going to be a big help.

Only time y'all get players over Florida is when they cannot qualify @ UF. Or when we kick them off our team y'all are quick to clean up the scraps.....

New-Keys Richardson comes to mind

So does Travis Henry (but they'll deny that one to their grave) and more recently John Brown & Dante Phillips. Which reminds me, have they signed AC Leonard yet?


But I agree with the vol, Jacobs was a big get. I think/hope/expect him to start over Hunter before too long....

UF's defense

I'm thrilled with the level of talent, but finally another year with this scheme under their belts. Even without RoPo, we should still be fine. Good to get Neiron ball back too.

On a side, good to see Valdez Showers make the 2 deep so far. Glad to see guys from MI down there

So...the admission requirements are higher at Florida than Tennessee? Didn't know that...

Well, now you know. Enjoy our players who cannot qualify, or those who simply can't cut it @ UF

Should be a very interesting year. We have top talent on both sides of the ball, so we shall see how it translates.

I'm surprised that Ball is starting over Kitchens, given that Ball was out for so long with that medical issue (heart).

Also, Kitchens looked good as a reserve last year, so definitely a surprise that Ball has jumped right back in.

Of course, Ball looked really athletic when he stepped on the field his first year. I really like UF's LB depth this year. 8 Solid players there, and that's with Ajagbe not getting any love.

Also, that secondary looks fairly legit now that they all have a year of experience. Some nice size in the starting corners as well. Should be a good defensive unit overall. The only realy question is up front. Can this unit generate more QB pressure and actually stop the big strong teams from running the ball...
