    If you were offered this class right now, lock it in and throw away the key, would you take it?

    QB: Malik Murphy - portal (gotta shoot for the stars I guess lol)
    RB: lol
    WR: Creed (I like him)
    WR: Patterson (we'll see how he does this year)
    WR: Mizell
    WR: Eugene Wilson
    TE: none
    OL: Tommy Kinsler
    OL: Harris
    OL: Bryce Lovett
    OL: Lucas Simmons (Auburn being pesky)
    OL: Kearney (flip season bitccccches lol)

    DL: Kamran James
    DL: Gavin Hill
    DT: Will Norman
    DT: I'm close to saying John Walker but i'll say Jordan Hall
    Edge: Nixon
    DL: LeBlanc
    LB: L
    LB: O
    LB: L
    CB: McClain
    CB: Denson
    Nickel: Aaron Gates
    S: Jordan Castell

    the class calculator and that would be....268 with 19 commits. Remember, I didn't add anyone at QB, RB, or LB so let's just say we throw 5 guys there (I just threw Justin Jefferson, Samuel Omosigho, Sedric Irvin, and Marcel Reed in there for the hell of it since all are 3*s) and we're at idk 274.96; that's 7-8sh with 24 commits. But let's say no McClain, with 23 commits it's 265ish which woulda been 11th last cycle.

    That’s as good as I expected coming in. We don’t appear to be headed that direction but we haven’t really dropped our money yet either.

    I would add the DB Jackson from Osceola, probably TJ Searcy, the JUCO LB Jefferson, maybe Malik, hoping we pony up for Raylen Wilson at LB. Not sure I see Simmons or Kearney

    I think I’d lean towards yes. Unlike some, I think we may surprise and get Hayes at RB. Seems every year we sign someone not expected and I think he could be the one this year.

    I think no one at qb and I’m okay with it. Don’t reach,

    LB? Hell, I’ll put Bryant in. I am confident in my optimism.

    I just saw a post on Twitter that Sharif Denson has committed to UF. The tweet was from CFB247, whomever that is.

    That was a great commitment video. As it went along though I was struck by how long ago those guys were at UF. Sad how much UF recruiting fell off in Jacksonville

    Not sure who the RB will be but still optimistic we get a good one. Not sure Webb goes to UPS at all. Could in fact surprise everyone. Add Sorey at WR I believe but could be wrong. Still think Jean is very possible. I do think Walker joins the class but you never know. Would be glad to take both he and Jordan. Believe Kirkland will also land in the class.

    So we maybe get 1 5 star and that’s a big maybe. It’s a long way from A&M’s class last year. Unfortunately, I think that’s what it’s going to take to win another SEC championship. I guess I need to be resigned to the fact that’s not going to happen anytime soon.

    yea I mean I’m just…there’s NO WAY he stays at UT, right? Especially once Arch hits campus. They also have Hudson Card there too so Card or Murphy gonna bounce imo

    Hudson Card, Texas, Quarterback

    We all knew something was amiss when the last staff seemed to have abandoned Jax, which was hard to reconcile when it was just down the street. His staff would be playing the game out in california but seemingly too lazy and unmotivated to drive an hour and a half to jacksonville, where they should have been.

    Not bad. Not sure you can win a NC recruiting at 10-12 playing in the SEC due to attrition. Clemson did it twice but they play a weak ACC schedule and had great QB play both times.

    Consistently 10-12 with a few difference makers can get it done. Top 5 consistently is the model though.

    Well, the NC has come outside the top 5 16 times in the last 30 years and 5 times outside the top 10. Something like that. It can be done.
