Huge pickup, very happy to hear about it.

Best thing I could imagine:

Pick up Adams, Jones, and a WR.

Awesome!

That's all I can say. I always wanted him at UF. Hopefully this doesn't spook our other LBs.

Scout's been pretty consistently down on us this year. I mean, relatively speaking. The sixth best class in the country is still pretty sweet. But comparatively.

For example, ESPN has Kelvin Taylor as the best running back in the country. Rivals has him fifth. Scout has him eighth. And they're lower on Hargeaves than just about anyone in the world.

Hearns never knocked out Sugar Ray Leonard.

We've been talking about how Scout rates our recruits/class and that I can't understand the hate coming from that site. From #7 to #6 is a joke.

Yes, I know. Battered him pretty good the second time around though. Probably should have won.

Not true. Sugar Ray knocked him out in the first fight. The second fight was a draw.

Just sayin

Oops, someone else already got on you for it.

The draw was roundly booed. Should have gone to Hearns. Leonard finished strong, but was knocked down twice and his face was a swollen pulp.

Kelly probably sold him a bill of goods in that ND was on the brink of greatness; Monday night TV proved otherwise. Kelly flirting with NFL and CWM bird-dogging him brought him to his senses.

This is great news and a great get for Gator Nation. Plus he's a legacy.

Kids from PA right? He's got to be a Steelers fan, and couldn't believe anyone would even interview with the Eagles. Damage is done, I'm going to UF.

**luciaboy** · 01-10-2013, 05:14 PM

wow! i wonder if muschamp jumped on kelly's decision to interview with the nfl. coaches that flirt with the nfl and don't leave will always lose 2-3 players because they don't know if he will be their coach next year. sos never eliminated himself but i don't think he ever interviewed whil being the uf coach. anyway, this was quite a coup for uf

rpmGator · 01-10-2013, 05:16 PM

Heard it on ESPN as well, with a recruiting nation show on shortly.

Great news for sure.

SmootyGator · 01-10-2013, 05:19 PM

Awesome news!

3 of our 5 LB's are enrolling early

Since we're at 26 and have room for 4 more(?) how about a DE, DT, CB, RB(Collins)? If we miss on Collins then a FB/TE/QB to replace. I would be pumped. As for another DE and DT, I'll be impressed if the staff gets one legit at each position. I would rather not offer a DL spot to a project as they more likely end up transferring. I suppose to the staff a backup QB like Woulard is more important than a third RB but darnit I want to see Collins play for us.

WOW!! This is incredible!
