quote:
20 players and 2 transfers in
13:7 bluechip ratio (65%). If you factor transfers, we had a 15:7 bluechip ratio (68%). That is incredible for a transition class. For reference, Mac's best ever bluechip ratio was 11:11 (50%) in his 3rd year. Mac had a 4:16 (20%) bluechip ratio in his transition class. If anybody is still thinking Mullen's recruiting isn't above Mac's, all you need to do is look at this stat here.
Our average player rating for the incoming class is 90.75, good for 11th in the country. That could rise depending on other teams having players that don't qualify to enroll. That would also be higher if you factor in our two transfers.
Our final class ranking was 14th. When factoring in the class size and the two transfers in who were both bluechip players (Van Jefferson was a top 125 player, and Trevon Grimes was a top 50 player and formerly a 5-star before an injury his senior year), that class ranking likely would have been on the verge of a top 10-12 class in a transition year.

I just looked at the entire roster on Gatorzone.com
This team can compete for a championship, with some decent QB play, better O-line blocking and of course some good coaching.
And better tackling! fixed!

Question not just for you Straws, but UF is getting beat up pretty badly on the Rant about poor recruiting how does this stack up?
Also, I heard Mullen speak at our county Gator Booster club, and his philosophy of seeking out less than elite players came across loud and clear. He believes firmly that he'd rather have a 2, or 3 star player that has a chip on his shoulder and something to prove and will bust his butt to earn playing time than a team of 4 star primadonnas that don't feel they need to put in the effort. Does the board feel this plays into his current recruiting "slump"?
