Wow! Hope he lands on his feet. Someone at UF messed up here.

I would expect him to head back to the Left Coast since he is from Cali. I would love to have him but we are flush with schollies and talent.

Wonder who else was in the running before he signed with Florida.
He originally committed to USCw before decommitting and going with the gators. His top 5 prior to committing to USCw (in no particular order) were USCw, USCe, Oregon, Oklahoma, and Florida.

At one time, as many as 14 schools were all in serious consideration, Bama being one of them. I’m hearing rumors that Texas is in strong running right now. They were one of the 14.

I’d say that Bama doesn’t have too much difficulty attracting high end talent. I’d also say that for me, Steele is throwing up some red flags. I could be wrong.

The 2021 class is suffering as well. Trevonte Rucker decommitted today, one of several in 2021 class resending their pledge to Florida. This leaves them with two in a class that appeared to be the class Mullen was expecting to compete with the top programs.

J. Jones must be a sleezebag so I understand Steele wanting out of that room. Jones won't be on the team and I hope Steele does well whatever he decides to do. I also hope Mullen gets a grip on this situation and has a very good 2020 and 2021 recruiting class since I dislike the dawgs with a passion.

Seems like they needed to talk with Steele more and figure out how to fix the problem roommate, Jones, who ended up sexually assaulting two women. No doubt in my mind that Steele knew that the Jones was nothing but trouble and didn't want Jones dragging down his career prospects.

Too much for coincidence, isn't it?

yet not a murmur about 3 underclassmen Georgia players declaring early and not getting guaranteed contracts, a few highly rated transfers (to include fields), and a bunch of arrests in Athens that have happened since January... Coincidence?

I am confused. Are you talking about Florida or Georgia?
