Still doesn't make any sense to me to have a spring game on a Thursday night

"We're really excited to announce we're moving to Thursday night, April the 14th with a 7:30 p.m. kickoff," Napier said in March of 2022 about moving the game to a Thursday. "This is going to create an opportunity for us to engage the student body for the first time. We are going to be able to get them here prior to Easter break. We're going to have some of the best recruits in the entire country here to show them what the University of Florida and Gator Nation are all about."

Last year's Thursday-night spring game attracted 26 prospects from the 2023 and 2024 classes who earned four or five-star status on the industry generated 247Sports Composite. Additionally, 10 players — 2023 offensive linemen Knijeah Harris and Bryce Lovett, 2023 wide receivers Eugene Wilson, Aidan Mizell and Andy Jean, 2023 defensive linemen Kamran James, Will Norman and Gavin Hill, 2023 running back Treyaun Webb, and 2024 running back Chauncey Bowens — ended up either enrolling at Florida or are currently committed to the program.

Also, if you were a recruit, where would you rather be? Tallahassee or Miami in the afternoon? Or Gainesville at 7pm on "Primetime SEC Network"?

And another thing, Miami and FSU's dates are already set:


Florida 4/14 (Thursday)
Miami 4/15 (Friday)
FSU 4/16 (Saturday)


Maybe you should be mad at Miami for having there's on Friday as well.

Moving it to Thursday isn't that big of a deal.
