Apparently Bielema just said on ESPN2, "Florida is kind of the new Ole Miss. They're doing some things in recruiting that kind of shock you a bit."

Twitter is not responding kindly.

Putu still not signed. Florida must be pushing him which led to that statement

just checked and UF is sitting at 24 for the class right now. room for one more.

losing putu would be a nice kick in the nuts to end the day.

You have to look at the class as a whole, not just what happens on NSD.

5 star overall #2 SDE who is the highest rated prospect in AR
#3 RB from out of state that everyone offered
4 star DT who is 2nd highest rated prospect in AR
4 star ATH who is the 3rd highest rated prospect in AR
4 star DT from LA who had a LSU offer
WR who had a Bama offer and is the 4th highest rated prospect in AR
Flipped an out of state 6'4", 275 lb DE with offers from Nebraska and TCU
3 top 50 LB's
A highly underrated 6'7", athletic QB
4 star OG from Iowa, rated as the 15th best overall OG
2 JUCO transfer offensive linemen providing the immediate help we need.
3 star prospect that should become the prototypical FB we need

Damn, doom and gloom up in here. We just signed a class much better than average for us in a very lean year in state.

People are ALWAYS going to be disappointed when we're not at LEAST in the top half of our division. We're forced to acknowledge how much harder it is to win consistently when you're not in a state like LA, TX, FL, etc.

Whomever is in charge of recruiting CB's for us should encouraged to find another job. Horendous recruiting back there for years now.

We've never been in the top half of our division nor the top half of the SEC in recruiting.

I can understand some being disappointed with this class. I'd rather think positively in that all the kids signed today were wanted by the Coaching Staff.

Sure we missed on some good players that visited the last couple of weeks but other than Pollard and Carmouche we didn't have any decommits.

Let other teams fans celebrate in February. I'd much rather celebrate in the Fall.

Edit to add Putu as a NSD flip

Well it has changed from, after morning classes, to afternoon classes, to nobody knows what is going on.

If he wanted to come here he would have already signed the papers.
