Kentucky game next week.

Mike Peterson and Sean Spencer listed as his recruiters. I'd say we got a decent shot with those guys.

And Raymond working on Cormani. Those would be the biggest pulls for Fla in a long time.

Or OSU stopped pursuing him. OSU doesn't lose many battles to middle of the road SECe teams. It's not a shot at you but the consensus is OSU's DL coach liked him, no one else did so they decided to pass.

He also whined about not getting enough attention on his OV

100%

Nice to see the distinct step up in quality of battles Florida is in on under the new staff. Seems like every kid we’re in on also has at least one of Bama/Georgia/Ohio State as their finalists

I like Bama's chances with keeley and McClain but they aren't deciding any time soon.

The Ohio State defense is bad. And only 1 top 100 defender committed. Oof.

I mean Bama only has 3 top 100 defenders committed right now, and Sonny Styles was the #1 safety in the class before he reclassified

Weird flex

Alabama has 3 in top 30 right now. Is favored right now for:
Keon Keeley
James Smith
Russaw 50/50
Damon Wilson according to on3 but I don’t see it

OSU is favored for who else? Genuinely curious.

Hard to pick against Bama for guys they want but I’m comfortable saying Florida leads for McClain right now and would predict we ultimately land him. That seems to be the tenor of our insiders/fanbase, at least. He’s visiting UF this weekend too.

Everyone else besides you and the gator insiders say Bama leads but Florida is right there. We will see who is right I guess. I don't think he is visiting Bama again until October.

OSU insiders are saying he may commit to OSU soon. I didn't know we were that in the race but he is up at the game today

OSU also is in it for Keeley and Matayo. Also our corner who is #104 has been jumping up the rankings the last 6 months so likely will finish there.

And no one else in the top 100? It's just a strange thing to say when it isn't like Bama has 8 top 100 guys on defense committed

Beat Kentucky next week and we might get Keely and McClain locked up by end of November.

Literally no one thinks you have hardly any chances at all for keeley and you have work to do for McClain. Bama is getting both of their last officials in October

No we don't. He was never actually going anywhere but UF, that CB that was put in for Alabama was for shock value clicks.

Keely is up in the air. With the new staff and newly opened complex, player housing etc. Expect Fla recruiting to only get better.

It takes time to really build those relationships. I'm hoping next yrs class will be sick. Still could finish really good this class too. Top 8 would be awesome.

At this moment Keely isn't up in the air. Like I said, Fl has a lot of work to do but there is plenty of time. I think he ultimately picks Bama and then getting that last official in October only helps. I would say of the two Fl is in a better spot with McClain today.

Keeley is visiting UF this weekend. It was originally an official visit, but has been switched to a 2 day unofficial visit.

He’s expected back at UF for his official visit on October 15th against LSU (he officially visits Bama on 10/7)
