He isn't going to FSU. It's between Florida, Ohio State, and Bama. But the guy's with over 90 percent accuracy have at Florida. Seems like they have a good idea.

I think he four star he is talking about is Dean who is all but signed at this point. Following Warren from UT. He is four star composite.

You did this garbage with me last time when I told you to cool your jets on Kelly. I’m not saying he won’t sign with Florida, I’m just saying it’s not done yet, we are talking about Urban Meyer and Nick Saban, if they want somebody it’s really really difficult to beat them, let them sign we are talking about 18 year old kids nothing is set in stone. Then we can praise Mullen.

The top five predictors now have him at Florida. So it's fair to assume the jump is likely.

Now. Why don't you and TJ go take the negative bullshite to your own forum.

Call it the virgin forum. People this negative constantly, can't have a good sex life.

He's right to some degree (even though we have the top predictors, we just picked up like 23 more crystal balls over the last 72 hours), but this weird thing with masochistic Gators who just prefer to suffer instead of becoming even slightly optimistic are strange.

Yep. They just don't want success. They enjoy the pain of losing it seems. I never said he is a Gator. Just said in all likely-hood. Every Alabama predictor has him here too. He set his announcement date while at UF. it's very, very rare for all of the top predictors to be wrong on 24/7. Four guys with 88 percent of above have him here, so the odds say it's most likely. Especially Higdon(100 percent), Bill Green(25 of 26), Wolk(91 percent), and Wiltfong(88 percent). They rarely miss, and all together being wrong is statistically improbable. Simple math.

Forget that:

Top predictors for OSU, Florida and Alabama have him coming to Florida.

I'd only start to really worry if he said he would wait until February because he wanted to hear what FSU had to say.

Yeah... at this point, it certainly would be surprising to see him go elsewhere. Momentum is rolling into Gainesville on that front... I'd agree... unless he decides to delay his signing (unlikely as he's set to be part of an in-person event in Atlanta on Wednesday), it would seem unlikely that he'd go elsewhere. I've been on record as saying he's a bit of a project, but he's a very good add to the UF class if you land him. (Trying to be careful not to be accused of jinxing it here for you guys if anything happens.. )

And I understand why some Gators fans are so reserved about giving something positive (we haven't had something in a while), but at this point they are literally almost hoping/thinking that nothing good will happen.

The only way I don't see him at Florida is if he A. Delays his signing (but as you said, he's going to an event on Wednesday) or if he B. Decides that OSU is a better destination and he doesn't actually want to play for a while.

B is more likely than A, but he's been ''out of love'' with OSU for like three months (since OSU recruited another QB) but he could get cold feet.

One of these days... this will get old. That day is not today. Gatorbait2008 will forever be tainted by the Chip Kelly talk.

Look here you retarded sumbitch. We all want UF to succeed. Some of us know what we're getting with Mullen. An average coach and recruiter. That's fine if he gets an all star STAFF. I've said that from the beginning. If the staff isn't great we're in trouble because we just got done firing one dumbass coach.

He'll be a RS JR in terms of NCAA eligibility. I think that matters more than academic standing.
