Yea but all the transfers they got will make up for a little bit of the their recruiting failures. Unfortunately for them transfers are only a temp fix, so Mullen better figure out this recruiting thing


Seems like a bad strategy to target recruits you know have a sketchy-at-best chance of getting accepted. Maybe a Florida fan is tracking this, but it feels like they've got like 73-75 people on scholarship. That's an entire side of the ball missing and hurts depth in practice and in games.

The problem it creates is it reduces the margin of error Florida has for the typical 12 game regular season with regard to injuries and suspensions. All of a sudden you have to burn redshirts you don’t want to burn to make up the difference which results in you being unable to sell immediate PT to the next classes because you have a bunch of freshmen and sophomores out there playing for injured upperclassmen or guys who should have been there but didn’t qualify. It snowballs pretty significantly if you’re not saavy enough to manage the roster numbers. Richt wasn’t and I guess now we will see if Mullen is over the next couple of years
