FSU OL commit Dontae Lucas rated the visit a 10. His mom really likes the staff.

Pittman and Steele are talking together, it's a big deal because Pittman is 100% to Florida and Steele just came off of a big visit. Here we go.

Major smoke that someone from the BBQ committed to the staff.

Hope it stays hidden. Some writer always tries to get the story and ruins it for the kid and UF.

I'm sorry for the language but: I really, really hate these fricking dudes dropping hints about commitments. Let the kid have his time, let him have fun and stop trying to spoil the moment.

We all know the short list, and then the guy goes around liking stuff and it kind of gives it away. I won't be part of it, but these dudes have to try to stop being the first and just let it happen.

The more you bring top level kids together and get them to interact, the more they want to play together.
Better chance to receive the commitment if all the kids are friends and UF is one of the common schools. ie Tebow and Spikes and Percy. High level players are drawn to each other.

IT also sort of puts a little pressure and ups the timetable. "Top guys are looking at Florida, don't get left out." McElwain NEVER had this much talent coming around Florida. Steele will have visited us twice in two weeks.

That was something that puzzled me about Coach Mac. I wanted to give him a chance like all Gator coaches, but I could never figure out his recruiting targets. It just seemed like he had a giant list of kids and randomly picked some to go after. It was strange to me.

Dionte Marks said 5* Trey Sanders is in the UF Commits group chat FWIW...regardless of whether he is a silent...it’s a good sign that our commits are in his ear

We have like seven players right now who are extremely loud silent commitments.

Trey Sanders.
Nathan Pickering.
Mycah Pittman.
Kaiir Elam.
Jahleel Billingsly.
There's an OL I can't remember, but I'm almost certain he's coming.
Lloyd Summerall.

I mean, I'm not sure if they're just enjoying the process (no problems there) but everything they do is Gators. Some of them even have Gators gear in the profile pictures on Twitter.

We would have to mess something up for Sanders to not come to Florida, especially while we're running a two RB set.

It’s May and silent commitments mean nothing. These kids commit to multiple schools quietly, it takes pressure off of them. It’s best to just wait until December to start seeing where kids actually visit when the pressure is on them.

Meyer had a system wherein he would wait for a big weekend before actually letting the kids go public -- and while I agree, you could also say commitments mean nothing until December as well.

They still visit schools and can decommit, etc. etc..

The point is there are a lot of kids who are high on Florida who would commit today if they could, and it looks like Mullen is continuing the tradition of having big commitment weekends.

I agree, if today was NSD, we would be happy. However, a long long way to go.

Stingley and Steele both on their official visits, both will bring their families with them.

Are they on campus yet? Feels creepy asking, but here we are.

I don't think it's creepy because they are very open about where they are.

Steele arrived on campus last night (I believe his family today) and Stingley and his family should arrive tomorrow. (June 6th).

We're in the top 3 for Stingley who seems to be a heavy LSU lean and we're the leader for Steele and he's supposedly on commitment watch. I don't expect it, because I think his recruiting is going to continue but I wouldn't be surprised.

The JUCO 2018 TE Lucas Kroll is the most likely to commit out of this weekend's visitors IMO.

He is eligible to play this year.
