I like it...we addressed a lot of needs and although A. Jackson, L. Carter & D. Prince would have been great additions...the staff did a great job.
We got OL first and foremost and I will tell you that a lunch pail toting 3 star Ol will usually outwork the five stars. Look at Seantrel Henderson as prime example a few years ago that Meyer tired to recruit...he was # 1 recruit in the country and had the mindset of a kid who felt entitled....found out in college he had to actually work hard and transferred around.
DL, we did extremely well...we added talent that will help us win games down the road. Our secondary just got a boost.
QB was a grand slam...Grier/Harris will have the chance to lead us to a lot of Ws. Grier will have to develop some and hit the training table. He throws a lot of passes simi sidearm and that wont work too well in the SEC with the DEs coming at you. H e does have quick release and is used to a fast pace, catch the shotgun snap and throw type offense. Will be interesting to see how Roper gets Driskel/Harris and Grier developed in a new system....all three will be able to beat you with their feet and that's huge.
Got RB/WR depth and we will see how they develop. I really feel we will have at least one WR break out and give us production we haven't seen in years. Just need the TEs to develop al;so and we have the makings of a great offense soon.

I agree, it's not sexy, but I really like what we did this year.
I really hope the OL can step it up in 14, I'm glad we addressed that position.
loved getting holley to flip from PSU and picked up G. Willis. Can't wait to watch both in action.

UF upgraded the most at TE. Not many people will talk about it, but UF got 2 flex TE's which is huge going to the spread, and 1 TE that can flex or play in-line.

That Goolsby kid from Kansas is the most underated kid in this class. Watch his highlight film. Excellent route runner and catches everything thrown his way and can lay a block or two.

Moral Stephens is going to be a weapon as well. Very CI like. I like Lewis' upside the most, but he needs to put on major weight.

We signed five OL from high school and one JUCO to give us six total. Its a start...we are so thin at OL right now its not funny...just have to pray no OL gets seriously injured. Right now we have six OL with some starting experience and then after that its a void.
Lets pray we can have a spring game this April.

We have 15 scholarship OL, 12 of which are on campus. The only way we don't have a spring game is if UF is decimated by injuries. Again.
