Really curious here. You lose all your receivers and your best back. You lose 3 of 4 on the d-line including the 2 that were worth a shite. Look pretty solid in secondary. How is that better?

Not a UF fan, but having watched them, they rotated in 6 WR's pretty regularly, in addition to Kyle Pitts, their TE. Those 6 WR's all caught at least 20 passes. Of those 6, Grimes and Copeland will be returning, in addition to Pitts at TE. On top of 2 4* WR's they've brought in, they're also going to land Xzavier Henderson tomorrow and he's an absolute stud, and might add Justin Shorter as well. At RB, Pierce is decent, they just landed a former 5* RB transfer, and they're still in the mix to add another 4* back. The OL should also be better, as they return 4 starters.

Example of a guy who doesn’t know shite about UFs roster.

We aren't losing all our receivers, and keep the best returning TE in the nation

OLine has more depth and more experience than last year

Pierce is a pretty good back so not a huge drop there.

Defensive line we have some good players but it will be younger. Not as good a pass rush but the linebackers will also be more talented than this year.

Secondary will be fine.

Biggest thing. Two very good QB's in the QB room. Anyone wondering if UF has a QB literally missed the entire season. Trask performed exceptionally well in his role despite no run game to support him.

UF also has more depth. Mullen has upped the blue chip ratio significantly. Our back ups are now four stars instead of three stars at most positions. Would be nice if five stars, but depth has been an issue and that isn't the case next season.

Grimes is coming back. Toney may come back. Copeland is coming back. So our 1-2 receivers are set. Who is behind them we shall see.

Still have Grimes, Toney, Copeland and Pitts.

your best back

Our starting RB, you mean? Pierce is a load and had a better ypc avg than Perine with only 2 less tds on less than half the carries. Many ppl said he should've been the one starting.

We have higher rated players waiting behind them for the most part. Greenard was a beast but the others were Mac/Rumph specials. DT will be an instant upgrade and with guys like Cox,Carter and Diabate coming off the edge, gonna be real hard to double those big guys in the middle like Dexter who should compete for instant playing time.

We'll be younger for sure but more talented/explosive overall. Learning curves the first few weeks but the schedule is in favor of that as long as they just don't shite the bed.
