Seriously? How about how many WRs at UF during the Spurrier years got drafted higher than Julio? What kind of meaningless point were you trying to make?

I wish we could have gotten Amari Cooper to look at us last year verses going to Bama. Kid can play. He had almost 900 yards as a true freshman. Or almost three times as many yards as our best WR.

Bama has done well recruiting WR's of late. What do you think about the GATORS WR class this year?

Which receivers are better than Robinson and North, that are still undecided?

I think those are two of the top 5 WR's in the country so nobody. Treadwell and James Quick are undecided but I don't expect them to come to Florida I could see the staff getting both on campus for a visit.

What bout S. Coley? No chance he signs w the "good-guys"?

Gatorrick22 · 12-18-2012, 01:04 PM

Grades?

Things have been quiet around Coley for a while. He's probably taking finals right now, so who knows. If he sets things right academically, that could solve a lot of problems. Hopefully, someone's been staying in touch with him. Hopefully Joker has introduced himself. If he can pull it together, he'd be the perfect final piece to the this WR class.

Robinson was icing on the cake to say the least. However, I believe Peace has some very good talent to work with here and is this is a good class here. As soon as Peace can exhibit his true offense once the talent is in place, wr's should not be difficult to lure here.

Yepper, but in the mean time, another good player we though we had will be in Clemson (on some couch) watching us win another BCS Companionship on TV wondering if he can transfer to Florida...... (C.J. Spiller...cough, cough.....) too.

IMHO, Fullwood has a higher ceiling than Robinson. (But what do I know.) My interest in Robinson was because of his advanced stage of development, plus the EE factor. He could contribute early at Clemson, but by their respective junior years, I see Fullwood as a thoroughbred in our offense. The rest of the group are really good too, and I don't mean solid. These are top drawer Florida players and superior athletes. Without another commitment, this is already the most promising WR class in a few years. Got some size. Got some speed. Got some with both, plus outstanding academics.

Never, ever underestimate the value of academic achievement in a player's background. Think of all the over-achiever's we've had just at WR who were stellar students, Alvarez, Chandler, Collinsworth, Doering, Willie Jackson, both McGriffs, Murphy and probably a half dozen more.
