Canes back in the mix for 5-star DT Taylor

What’s the word on whether this kid wants to be a 3-4 end or a 4-3 3-tech? It’s a big decision. Career altering potentially
 
According to most on here we don’t drop the same amount. But if we win 10 games the dudes will come. But Tennessee hasn’t won 10 games in how many years and look at that class (so far)).
Only time will tell if all the win and they’ll come dudes are right. But the win and they’ll come apparently doesn’t apply to ole miss, uga, uf, FSU,
Vols, and lsu before the natty, or unc. How many years did les miles string those all those 5 star kids along. They went 4 years without winning 10 games and pulling elite dudes in their state and others despite not winning a chip since 2007.

Great point... i think winning matters but only so much. Thats why the gator board is on meltdown mode.

Back to back 10 win seasons and NY6 bowl wins and theyre getting fleeced by Tennessee who hasn't beaten them in how long now?

This is why I’m concerned as a Miami fan. If boosters from Tennessee can just swoop in and start taking 5 stars like they just went to the playoffs 2 years in a row then let’s just be happy with the coastal cause now there is another school that’s in the south Florida recruiting sweepstakes.

Tennessee lost to Georgia State at home last year, and lost by 60 to Florida and Georgia, but they did have that monumental 1 point win over Indiana to close it out.

Miami's the only program in the nation that has to three-peat to land 5 stars.

Fugg Dan Mullen. But this is straight homer talk. He’s 10x better than Manny as a HC. He’s produced first round picks as a OC for UF, a HC for Miss St, and now a HC for UF. Their DC is much better than Baker. They had 10 wins his first year, and then 11 wins last year.

Comparing what he’s having to face in the SEC to the Coastal pretty much reiterates the point that their production alone means they’re currently in a better position as a program right now. We need 10/11 wins in 2020 just to get our backs off the ground. I say 11 or bust. Then we need to repeat that and start producing first rounders.

I think the gambling odds tell you a lot about the position of a program. Just because a team won 10 games one year, it has little bearing on the next year because so much can change in the offseason. A team could have huge attrition or staff changes, so the W/L total of a previous year is mostly irrelevant. The over/under win total for UF in 2020 is 10. The over/under win total for UM in 2020 is 9. Thats only a one game difference. And despite your slobbering over the mighty SEC East, the overall strength of schedule for both programs is almost the same: UF's schedule is ranked #61, Miami's schedule is ranked #65.

But wait- there's more. That 9 game win projection for Miami was released BEFORE our OL situation improved significantly. Now Miami has Walker (which also weakens UF) and could add another instant starter on OL if Williams transfers from Houston. If that happens, then Miami has addressed its major weakness- the OL. So I'm not being a homer when I say UM's and UF's programs are in just about the same position right now. The sportsbooks happen to agree with me.

Chicken vs the egg debate going all the way back to the grassy days.
You can only win so much with the talent you have.
Have we won less than we should for too long? No question Absolutely! Could we have held on to more kids even the elite ones with those wins? Any answer to that question is pure speculation no matter what Amari Cooper and the others say. Let’s see what happens. But my opinion is that not only do we need to win 10 games or more this year but we have to win each game by a severe *** kicking and lose only by a **** hair or kids will come up with all sorts of excu$e$. Historically speaking Tennessee has no business doing what they’re doing unless some serious CREAM is being spread around.

They at least won 6 games in a row and have something to sell, whether it’s real or not. We couldn’t get a first down in our bowl game and you want to act like it takes a 3-peat.... we can’t beat FIU. it would be great if we were realistic about our team and stopped blaming other teams or some greater conspiracy or local kids

I know a person pretty connected with UF and I asked him what I was told and he said the same thing. There was all kinds of momentum for UF to land them all and suddenly it’s looking like it could be zero. Which is odd since they were supposedly leaning UF.

I do know UF has rubbed some Sfla kids wrong , walker being one. Maybe the word is getting out , that’s just a guess on my part.

Tennessee sucked donkey balls. They aren't signing stud football players because they won 5 games against horrible teams and held on to beat Indiana by 1 in their bowl game.
