When you are constantly churning out corners and safeties, DB recruits are automatically going to want to go to that school. While Richt can use the "New Miami" lines, UF can easily say "Vernon Hargreaves is about to be a 1st round pick this year", "Jalen Tabor is eventually going to be a 1st round pick next year", "Janoris Jenins and Joe Haden are some of the top CBs in the NFL" etc.
Not the past teams' fault though, they had to deal with a dummy for a HC.
Miami even under the bum coaches has put out CBs as well. Burns has a shot at going in the first this year. Brandon Harris and DVD were both drafted although they didn't pan out in the league. ****, Sam Shields wasn't drafted but he's the packers top CB.
They may have been drafted but Florida has the advantage for now by being able to say their CBs have been 1st round picks. But I think thatll change here soon and well get back to churning out first rounders.
Not only that, they can easily say that they have more current DBs in the NFL.
Reggie Nelson, VH3, Janoris Jenkins, Keanu Neal, Matt Elam, Josh Evans, Quinton Dunbar, Joe Haden, Major Wright
vs
Sam Shields, Antrel Rolle, Ladarius Gunter
Hopefully we do start developing 1st round DBs or else UF and FSU are going to continue to scoop up those 4 and 5* like Derwin James, Jalen Tabor, Levonta Taylor, Jalen Ramsey, etc.
