    Thank you EoW - Obviously getting his commit and ultimately his signature would come pretty close to filling the one glaring need
    UF still has. Sure we need another linebacker and corner, but this position group is the biggest need.

    These interior defensive linemen have become hot commodities and difficult acquisitions, even for the 3 star guys.

    My anxiety level for this position group would be significantly reduced should he commit. Any On3 or 24/7 projections at the moment?

    No projections...but Uga wants him.
    But I don't think Uga gets Sone and Johnson. We get one of them.

    it all starts upfront. If you are weak in the middle upfront, the defense cannot do its job

    DT should be the position we're focusing on with our NIL money. We need to replace Robinson and Shivers.

    I was kind of surprised they let Robinson go. Replacing him with a true freshman seems a little strange. perhaps that doesn't happen If they knew shivers, wouldn't be here

    So many things to consider. Was the NIL that much more? It would take me hundreds of thousands over a couple of seasons to consider if I were in Robinson's position. Easier for me to just decide that, unless UNC is Texas rich, it was about more than just money. The guy went to Texas then transferred back home and gave us one season. To me he seemed set to be high in the rotation second season. Well on schedule to build his NFL resume.

    "After a 16-tackle, one-sack season as a true freshman, Robinson was poised to take a larger role on the Gators' defensive line this season and even earned starter reps in spring camp due to various injuries in the room."
