On3 posted a pic of the Top 10 RBs in the 25 cycle last week and I forgot to repost. Anyone remember seeing it? Was surprised to see Desinor so high on the list.

In any case, they have Deandre Desinor as #4 and Louis at 26 and Henderson at 16.

I found the 247 Top 10 RBs, haven't found the On3 variant. Both seem to have Desinor above Louis.

Assuming we only have 3-4 spots at WR next year, who would you choose? All Florida WRs I'd assume?

Naeshaun, Waden, Koby and a 26 kid who's going to reclass to 25:) and yes this year we don't need to leave the state for WR. In normal years I'd take Kamare and a few others but they'll be left out IMO.

Skill positions RB, WR, CB and S are loaded next year for Florida and South Florida.

DL and Edge are going to be out of state battles once again though.

No doubt. You take Desinor and Byron and call it a day at RB. DB class we will FINALLY do very well in.

24 DB class is stacked with talent we have a shot with. Do you think Addae is staying?

Edit - Nevermind I just saw your post above regarding Addae*

Hmm Jabari or Toney that is the question
Click to expand...
Toney is already committed in 26 for us. So if he were to reclassify up we’d already be off to a head start there.

You know if we can get all these dudes to reclassify late in the process, it could legit be like a secret weapon. I fully expect more kids to move up a class as a trend.
