You can't tell me that all of the players on UF's defense were 5 stars out of high school.


You're way off. Of course all the D's players weren't five starts (no team's is), but you're vastly underrating the talent on that side of the ball.

CeCe Jefferson 5 star
Jon Bullard 5 star
VHIII 5 star
Jalen Tabor 5 star
Alex McCalister 4 star
Antonio Morrison 4 star
Keanu Neal 4 star
Brian Poole 4 star
Marcus Maye 4 star
Quincy Wilson 4 star
Nick Washington 4 star
Taven Bryan 4 star
Khairi Clark 4 star
Duke Dawson 4 star

There are also a few of three stars with Jarrad Davis being one of them. Despite his ranking he is one of the best players on an immensely talented D.

Okay, I get that. But what I said was correct. Most were not 5 star athletes. So that means you have an outstanding defensive coaching staff/philosophy, which had to carry over from Muschamp. As much as he was a complete disaster as a game time coach, he recruited defense like Michaelangelo painted the Sisteen Chapel. He fine tuned that defense and McElwain's DC has put those players in excellent positions to succeed. Which is still baffling to me that you hated Boom so much. He didn't leave the cupboard bare over there. He was like a John Cooper at OSU. Shitty game time coach, but a damn good recruiter. Now at the Plains, they want him gone after one season? Don't be the Cleveland Browns of the South. They get rid of a coach for looking at someone the wrong way.
