Was Reese portal expected?
Lol I know right. They look like walking jacko lanterns
Like what Tex said, the writing was on the wall during the sugar bowl. Cine is our next safety playing with the Richie
If Evans goes to gators we'll never hear the end if it
They would have to beat us before they got bragging rights, and I don’t see that happening anytime soon.
Pure speculation, but it could be a good sign for Avontae Williams.
I don't necessarily look at it that way. I take it as they picked up our "seconds" . He most likely wanted to play at UGA, but the coaching staff didn't want to take any risk on him. At the end of the day, Florida sucks regardless of who they get!
He was one of the names on the fringe during some recent posts the second half of the season. Cine passed him on the depth chart pretty easily. Guy has a safety body and LB athleticism. Good player but he should be playing the roll of a small linebacker. Not a system fit and had younger guys passing him. Wish him very well.
Can't blame Reece for hitting the portal. He came, competed and got beaten out. Not worried about the numbers situation at all now. Kirb and Co. gonna finish strong.
Be fair they have a bunch first hand. The OL for instance is a 5* (1 each)
There will be 2 more DB entering before fall practice starts.
I am not a smart man, but I was decent at math...
you sign 25 a year...
That's a roster of 100...
you can only have 85 at a time...
Some guys leave early, some guys get hurt (attrition the old fashioned way...)
Some guys transfer in, some guys portal in (I enjoyed typing that...)
That means some guys gotta leave - they have to portal out (again, fun...). Sometimes it's not a good fit (that's a football fit, social fit, academic fit, distance from home fit, food in the café fit, coaching style fit, new-coach-hired-cause-old-coach-fired fit, etc.)
I think I said it before - of the 23-24 we sign this year, only 12-13 will become the player we "project" them to be (or that they are told they will be). When reality doesn't match the "crystal ball" they are sold by whomever, some will choose to believe that location, or FIT, is the problem (of course, it's not them... …and it may not be them, it may be the other stuff... …or it may be them...).
Just hope they all get their DEGREE somewhere in a an area they are gifted and interested in so they can turn that into a rewarding career that serves society.
Why is that? Aren't we still pretty good?
We **** good!
Just how gator fans are. They'll say stuff like "ah ha we stole him from y'all at the last second". Knowing good and well that ain't true.
