Is he planning to sign and/or enroll early? Assuming true, this is an important grab for you guys... and for Straws' sanity. Any link or just back channel rumors at this point? (note: not doubting, just curious what "confirmed" means here)

Didn't you bump a thread to talk trash?

Oh, you did.

Again, no other boards permit this stuff, and I'm not talking about just you. Good on you to bring us knowledge, but ditch this innocent little girl swaying with her hands behind her back like ''Meeeee, did I do something?'' trope.

If I was on a Georgia board and was bumping threads because you guys got boatraced by Auburn I'd be gone immediately.

Yes, early enrollee and OV to Florida this weekend.

His 247 profile has the early enrollee emblem on it and it's been known most of the cycle he'd be an early enrollee. I still think Florida goes after another quarterback or two this cycle, especially with 2019 being a little light at QB

Heard from a guy I know pretty well that Jerome Carvin will end up at UF, 4 star offensive guard. Just FWIW

I come to the Florida board to talk about Florida stuff, I guess I just don't want to get trolled by other fanbases?

Corral signing is big for this class, and will bring in better players. Most recruits were worried about our QB position, but a lot of people have some faith that Corral can come in and make an immediate impact.

I hope we get that JUCO DT Noah Jefferson, he named us #1 but I think we might lose him to Arkansas. Hopefully losing Bryan will make him think he'll get some more playing time.

I'd say bumping a thread with what was clearly meant to be a humorous comment is hardly "trolling". You and I disagree often, but it's not like I come in here spewing unintelligible gibberish. As I said above, if you guys would prefer that either a) I not post in this thread, or b) not post on your board, say the word. No harm, no foul.

For you, I'll drop it...

For now...


Back to crootin'. Are you guys still in on Ja'Marr Chase at all? Were you ever in it on his teammate Aaron Brule? Sounding more and more like he may be attrition from this class (which I don't love :/ ). I'm guessing they may both end up either at LSU or TCU based on most comments, was just curious if UF was still (or ever was in Brule's case) pursuing.

Now have to go look for this... had no idea this was even a thing.

ETA: Well sonofabitch... I've followed recruiting for a long time and don't even think I'd ever seen the clock, let alone the new sunrise. Good lookin' out.

For anyone else that didn't know that, article here.
Clock = Early Enrollee, Sunrise = Early Signee

I'll reply this once here but to dbuchs point it could probably go in another thread if further discussion is warranted. Are there gator fans who have been denied access or requested access and didn't receive? I'm not an admin so have no control, but if you are a reasonably quality poster I doubt you'd be outright blocked and if so, Lew would likely tell you why. There are posters from other fanbases on our boards. There are even OU posters with access to it now. Not trolling, have kept access... It's a short leash and some of the posters there are not "for" everyone. Fair warning.

Anywho... If you're not a troll and for some reason want to request access, make a post... I'll read through post history if we haven't chatted before and support if it makes sense. No guarantees but happy to give it a go.


Back to crootin':

What are the biggest areas of need for UF this cycle? Corral was priority uno I'd assume, but beyond that, OL? Petit-Frere seems like a damn good option in state (might have to live in S&C for a year)... Biggest threat Auburn?

Official Visit List for this weekend: Will update as there are changes

4* QB Matt Corral - UF commit

4* WR Tyquan Thornton - UF commit

4* WR Marquez Ezzard - Uncommitted, former FSU commit

4* LB David Reese - UF commit

4* CB Bookie Radley-Hiles - Uncommitted, former Nebraska commit. Him showing up on campus would be huge for us.

4* CB Trey Dean - Uncommitted, listed as a safety or DB but being recruited as a CB

3* S John Huggins - Uncommitted, former FSU commit

3* OT Noah Banks - JUCO Arkansas commit

Potential visitors

4* OT Jerome Carvin - Uncommitted. Has used up all of his officials, but may unofficially visit UF with Mullen/Gonzales/Hevesy here. If he doesn't visit, we might as well cross him off our list.

With Bryan going pro...it should make DTs more interested in UF since the immediate snaps are there as a backup.

Straw....love you man...but you are putting way too much stock in Corral and its unfair to him. Its a damn big leap from high school (I don't care what level of competition he has faced. Hope I'm wrong...but remember Fromm was only needed to handed the ball off and throw a few times. Granted he does have a great arm and velocity on his passes were usually zingers.

Fib...I did try to gain access to the dawg board some time ago and probably because I was sharp tongued at times with UGA...I must have scared the board.

I bring a lot to the table since I am over 70...I probably know more about UGA football history than 99% of the posters on your board. Know who Larry Rakestraw was? I can relate to many WLOCP games over the years. I know SEC history well back in old ages of black & white TV IF you were lucky enough to be on TV...teams usually were broadcast only once a year and that's why Larry Munson, Otis Boggs and many others were so valuable. Radio was the only source back then for 9 or 10 games a year. I listened to LSU a lot as a young teen since I could pick up the radio signal at night from their flagship station.

The SEC had a lot of headknocker games back in the early to mid 60s...I remember vividly the UGA-Bama game back in 1965 or 66. The crowd on the railroad tracks between the hedges. It was a great game and a hook & ladder play sealed the game. Oh, and it was my first experience watching college football in color on TV.

Haven't seen anywhere about Carvin, my guy knew him from high school and said he was feeling Florida. Hope he makes it to campus.

I wonder how real the Ezzard talk is. Is he an EE or early signee?

Huggins is a 4 star according to Rivals

I haven't been this excited about the future of a quarterback since Grier, and he turned out pretty well.

I was right about Franks from the very beginning.

I've watched his tape, I like what I see and I think he will be successful here. He's been in quarterback camps all over the country and has the wheels to extend plays.

He could flop, but from what I've seen on field there's much to be excited about. It's not like he runs out of bounds for four yards instead of throwing it away.

Franks is still TBD. You also didn't want anything to do with Grier after his test results and called his criticism of the staff sour grapes. I ain't buying what you're trying to sell pal.

Okay lol. Well maybe we can develop him in another year and a half, because literally everything QBs do badly he exhibits.

I knew he was a good quarterback, but I didn't want him on the team. You don't need to buy anything because I said he was a good quarterback from the beginning.

Sorry if I don't want shitbirds who can't stay clean on our team (and I have been consistent with this for the 9 guys who got suspended).

Just because I predicted he'd be a good QB doesn't mean I have to 'accept' him, mook.
