Where in the world is everyone
What the heck is everybody up to? Surely people aren't working on this fine day near the Swamp.

I try to avoid the Swamp assuming you're talking the University of West Gainesville.
It has been right quiet around here.
Go, Dawgs!
Hopefully spread out
Yeah, it's that time of year where sports boredom sets in for me so don't visit as much. I'll toss out a thought I've been having though:
Though still early, it seems we're on our way to another relatively down recruiting year. Posters on some other sites (where I only observe) rationalize by saying we save money for proven players/transfers. But I don't see us winning the transfer battles either. Seems same schools (Miami, Texas, Ohio State, Indiana, LSU, Oregon) are winning both. And Florida is now doing what Kirby was doing with HS recruiting. Am I off in this observation?
a little. When they say proven players, they mean retaining our own players. Typically may-July is when we do the bulk of our recruiting anyway. It’s way tooo early to toe tag recruiting at Memorial Day, but it hasn’t stopped some fans from doing so the last ten cycles.
The game is changing, and Kirby is adjusting. Some of these big name high school players are going to the highest bidder. I don’t think Kirby want to pay for potential unless he knows it wil have a high hit rate.
I've been working in the garden, and contemplating how much I miss the football season and how much I hate the Gators!
Ditto, I'm trying to finish up some exterior maintenance and landscaping projects before the Summer heat takes over. By late June, I'll be on AC life support.
