    Locked on Gators suggest UF may take up to 6 this cycle.

    Claude Mpouma (OT) and Desmond Green (IOL) would bring us to six. Both are definitely in the mix.

    The numbers always seem to mysteriously work themselves out.

    Interesting perspective. Unless mistaken, next season(2026), accounting for SRs leaving, we have 12 SO/JR types. That's a nice number of experienced OL. Six would get us to 20, I believe. More than average to carry, but would be enough to not have to worry about attrition.

    I hope we get our DL, not Edge types, but guys with big ole booties.

    What about OJO? Or is it going to come down to "A Bag Too Far (too big)". What do your tea leaves say, is UF starting to fade a little after the visit?

    My opinion:
    I think Ojo wants every bit of the spotlight and attention he is receiving.
    I'm sure there is some crazy money attached to his commit.
    I don't think UF is willing to pay crazy money for a freshman OT.
    I think Billy takes pride in developing his OL over time.

    Therefore, I don't think UF is in play for Ojo.

    I would rather we spend money on DT.
