    I've been wanting to see this kid commit for a while. He has the speed and skills for cb, the size for safety, and good tackling ability. He may want to be a cb, but the best for using all his skills should be star.

    I like the offer lists that a lot of our 3 stars have. If Georgia and Alabama have committable offers to a player I like it.

    I like the players Napier takes for the most part. Not too many clowns like that edge that went to ol miss.

    CMAN….thanks for your efforts to keep us informed. As a posting base we have some insufficiencies…INGRATITUDE is not one.
    Thanks for your efforts. From all of us.

    Ouch?
    Lmao.
    The ouches come on game day..
    Opinions are not so valuable.
    The games are where we show what we have or do not.
    Please do not let anyone’s mythical evaluations
    give you pause. I do think we are building..and anyway, the results of the season will give us enormous push…or NOT.
    We can all stress out then.
    Keep smiling.

    Recruiting rankings arent an end all stat but more times than not, its a pretty good indicator of the end result. Seems to me, thete are more underperforming teams than ones that really outperform their talent. A competent coaching staff can only do so much.

    W..talent is key no doubt.
    I personally do think we evaluate players well. A three star is not a three star, even in the fantasy world of ratings..UNTIL…the season ( for them) is over. Sometimes three stars become four stars.
    I just choose to keep all my sharp knives in the drawer until I actually do plan to slash my wrists

    And sometimes four stars become five stars. DJ was a four star prospect and the #7 QB in the class before his senior season. I think our staff is one of the very best at evaluating talent.

    Maybe it’s my O&B glasses, but it also seems that Billy and staff attract high character guys who maybe aren’t simply going for the biggest bag (want to be Gators?)

    Gotta limit turnover and foster unity otherwise it's just chaos.

    Yes that is correct.
    Thank you for making NIL my personal responsibility.

    I have noted that there are some things I cannot change. Amazingly so, as my powers are extensive.

    However, I am directing my attention to the length of days. Pay attention now. I am making the daylight a little shorter for each day..RIGHT NOW.
    Several months from now, I am considering changing time itself.
    Do not doubt me.

    Solid third.
    yes.
    We all agree that any situation that has us behind anyone else, should be recognized so that blame can be administered with swift justice.
    I definitely think the football program is at fault for this.:rolleyes:
