Well, if people were being honest with themselves all along, UF was never in the drivers seat for a long period of time with NCM, Victor, or Mack Wilson (contrary to what he says publicly). With limited spots and those guys not really feeling UF, the close was never gonna be amazing. It can still be solid though.

Yeah just saw Auburn got Nixon's last OV. I still like our WR class as it stands.

I don't believe that.

Victor got his offer pulled.

Huh? Victor and Bruce were never that high on the board. With that being said, if Victor wanted to commit in this last month, I think he could.

It doesn't matter now, but who was above Victor and Bruce?

Why would UF pull an offer from a position of need when all our other targets look bleak? Auburn and LSU have coaches under fire with run dominating offenses with no QBs and have #110 ranked passing offense for AUB and #105 for lsu yet auburn may get 4-5 top WRs and lsu is always loaded at WR. Is it Kerry Dixon, the offense, or both? Could it be WRs don't think UF can showcase their abilities adequately to get them to the nfl.

Cleveland and NCM, Swain as far as in-state kids. This staff wants true WRs. They had Hammond and Nixon above Bruce.

UF has had arse QB play for how many years in a row now? We also probably need someone besides Skipper who is a seasoned recruiter on offense.

Lsu has had these issues for almost a decade with 2013 being the exception. Yet they were able to get ODBj, Shepard, Landry, Randle, Dupre, Johnson, etc.

Yes, and LSU has no instate competition. These kids all grow up wanting to play for LSU. It isn't until the 10th or 11th grade that some start hearing from other schools, and for some that's too late.

Josh Uche and Elysse Mbem-Bosse to Michigan. Apparent backup plans for LB/DE

People think UF is done at LB if no Mack. So basically done at LB.

The gnashing of teeth regarding the close of this recruiting cycle is going to be unbearable.
