Lets play, "You're the recruiter"!

[deathroll]

It's quite obvious that Demarcus Robinson is/was torn about which university to choose. He is/was smack dab 50/50. So, lets pretend you're a coaching staff (Florida's or Clemson's or both). What do you tell him to try and sway him your way?

We are recruiting you to be our go to guy through the air. A missing piece to last years puzzle. You will complement this team. We are knocking on the door for an SECCCG and a NCCG. Something you will not see at Clemson. The SEC will have you more mentally and physically prepared for the NFL than any other conference. Look who the ACC winner is playing.

Clemson says the next Sammy Watkins? How bout you be Demarcus Robinson and make your own name here at Florida, with the multiple championships you could help us bring you could just do that. You could go down as one of the best college players of all time here at UF... Sammy Watkins ha! He plays high school teams you could be the next Percy Harvin...

SEC > ACC

[supagator]

Get your ass down here son. Welcome to the Gator nation!

[GataBaitx3]

SEC > ACC

You win the SEC, you play for the BCSNCG. You win the ACC, you play in the orange bowl.

I'd say "Gators rock, everyone else sucks. Don't be a hater, be a Gator". :wink:

[gatormoe1]

You can take the easy way out and go to Clemson, start year one and end up playing for a crappy bowl, or you can come work for your position and play for championships against the toughest defenses in the country here at UF, in the SEC.

Your choice.

After watching James Clark's film, I wouldn't waste a second chasing Robinson. Clark is a baller in the passing and return game.

[Gatorrick22]

Do you want to play for a BCS Championship while you're in college? Then come to Florida where we WILL make that happen.

[phideltdj]

The DB's at Clemson that you will scrimmage against will not make you better or prepare you for the NFL...the UF secondary is the best in the country and will make you a better wide receiver and prepare you to face that skill level in the NFL.

[nawlinsgator]

If I were Clemson, I'd show him the lake house and hint to his coach that we have a staff "position" available for him.

[gatorbait5]

nothing because its the dead period and hopefully clemsons coach talks to him and gets in trouble with the ncaa swaying him our way

[DuPontGator]

Gator or Gator Bait!?

Dead period don't matter cause he's an early enrollee.

Gainesville is the center of the muff-a-lotta galaxy.

Found a few pro-Clemson arguments a USC fan put together for Clowney when he was trying to decide where to go to school:

1. Practically unlimited, and irrisistible, orange and purple uniform combinations
2. If you like to have your rear end smacked, Dabo is your man
3. The thrill of playing in front of literally hundreds of fans at Cameron Indoor Wallace Wade Stadium
4. ACC football tradition…what? Oh, sorry, ACC basketball tradition
5. Two syllables: tractors
6. Dabo has promised to punch himself in the face until unconscious strictly for your entertainment
7. Speaking of Dabo, who else has a coach who also stars on “30 Rock”?
8. Dabo, aka Kenneth Parcell, on set
9. That little street through the middle of town with the store that sells stuff
10. The possibility of seeing a drunken Brent Musburger hitting on young co-eds at the Esso Club
11. Gameday meals provided by Ernie & Jewell’s Pig Innards and Snout Grindings
12. When Cletus brings his wife and sister to an autograph session, you only have to sign two autographs
13. If you’re really drunk, the lack of dental services and that big clock in the middle of campus make it easy to pretend you’re in London
14. Now that Brad Scott has retired he’s looking to shade some folks, if you’re interested
15. Kevin Steele gets so jacked up on the sidelines that he passes out, which is AWESOME
16. Cow patties make great doorstops
17. Hop in a car and drive south and you can find really hot college chicks within a couple of hours
18. CTU facemasks are dipped in diesel fuel to block the smell of the pastures
19. That’s Danny Ford lurking in the bushes naked, no kidding
20. Make all-ACC more than twice and have your jersey retired and a tool shed named after you
21. You can celebrate the 1981 National Championship, and the subsequent 1982, 1983, 1984 and 1985 probations (aka “The Salad Days”)
22. Every year you’ll only be 8-10 plays and 48-65 points from an ACC championship and/or BCS National Championship birth
23. Even after South Carolina beats you four straight, you can still say, “YEAH, BUT LOOK AT THE ALL-TIME RECORD BAYBEE, WOOHOO!”
24. Speaking of WOOHOO…Awesomest. Fight song. Ever.
25. You never have to hear of the God-awful city of Omaha ever again, for it has been stricken from the record at CTU
26. You get to play at the most storied college football program in the history of Pickens County"

We can match Clemsons money offer and then some.....

Nope :grin:

Appears as though it's working!

There are lots of Tigers in Major College Football, but there are only one Gators.

"Look, both your choices are great schools, have great traditions, and you are very gifted and blessed to be in a position to be able to choose between the two of them. Both choices are going to bring amazing opportunities for you to develop yourself as both a football player and more importantly to grow as a man. You have a set of goals. A plan for your future and your life. My job as your coach is to do everything I can to help you achieve those goals. Let me show you what we offer at the University of Florida and exactly how what we have is going to better assist your opportunity to maximize your potential."

(proceed with the benefits of the program, the family atmosphere, the SEC experience, the coaching staff experience, and the track record of developing players for the next level, as well as the opportunities of the academic institution.)


But let me tell you, everything that we offer means nothing unless you are dedicated, focused, and willing to put forth everything you have towards achieving your maximum potential. I believe in your potential and that's why I am here. The promise that I make to you is that my coaching staff and I are going to give our full dedication and effort to give you the resources and tools for you to reach your potential.

This is what the University of Florida is here to offer you. The dedication and the resources for you to reach your potential. Does this sound like what you are looking for?

Good! I look forward to seeing you on campus in January.

We play in the toughest conference in the league where more players go to the next level than any other conference. There is no conference in America that day in and day out prepares you for that next level than the SEC. We are one of the elite teams in the best conference. We had two off years and did not play for a natiional championship season for one reason and one reason only - our passing game.

We brought in one of the best WR coaches in America. We are losing the best tight end in the SEC in Reed. Our wide outs are going to have to shoulder some of the void that he leaves.

We have some great talent at your position, you can only make them better you better, and us better, and put us in the best position with all of the other talent in this great class and with what is coming back to win championships.

And now, two days before NSD, I'm going with, "OK, here's your chance, you know us now. You know we're straight shooters. You have got to know that we're the kind of coaches that you want to work with, that you want to have looking after you. We're talking about the University of Florida here; a school with superb academics, superb facilities, superb support programs. We live and work in Florida; that's a real good thing. UF plays in THE football conference. We play real football but we don't play around. Come be a part of what we're about. Come help us win championships. Send us a signed piece of paper on Wednesday. Let's get this thing started. All the best."
