Peters is still visiting as well as Gooden or Jefferson. None can get into UF right now. OL looks good. It doesn't look good for Copeland. Imo he's Bama bound. Watkins and Boykin will be good corners. Tannor and Johnson at DE-LB
My guess:

We sign

OL-Gouraige
DE/LB-johnson
DE/LB-Tannor
DB/WR-Watkins
DB-Boykin

If they qualify:

DT: Jefferson
DT: Gooden
LB: Peters

Take a flyer on a low level LB and WR.

Every year dozens and dozens of high school players in Florida that are undervalued sign with out of state schools and turn out to be gems. I don't give a crap about stars, I want players who want to be Gators and will play better than what a height/weight/speed chart shows.

To fill out our class we should look long and hard for the kids other schools want and recognize. Sure we want top flight players...but an awful lot of great players were rated 3 stars.

There is no 100% formula to predict how players will develop. We ourselves have had monster OL who had two star brains and stole scooters and knuckle heads who didn't know their azz from a hole in the ground. The damn NFL misses many times on draft choices. They over value and undervalue a lot.

Not going to gnash my teeth worrying. Things will either work out or they don't. The proof will be several years from now as to how well we recruited. These are kids from various backgrounds and aren't men yet. The good ones want to be coached up and are positive in the locker room.

Copeland has given zero indication of where he’s going. Unless you’re reading into his twitter page, which is dumb.
