Who landed Florida's blue-chip recruits?

This is great and we got a killer class, But where did all the blue chip CB sign ? I can't believe we are cursed at that spot.

 

[JustWin]

Two 90 average classes in a row, 88 in 19 an that was the first year of the portal. Stack chips.

i know where they didn't...

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

Development is the key

 

[AtlAtty]

We can rightfully complain about Bama getting Florida kids, but we have less room to complain than UF and FSU.
Also, north and northwest Florida is geographically, culturally and philosophically more Bama than Miami. Those country kids like country towns

which means the 11 blue chippers we have will end up being the next wave of Amari Carters and Zach McClouds... thanks Manny u bum

We should always be top 3 on this list! Always! Now I want to say we should always be #1 but that's a bit unrealistic with Bama stealing whoever they want. So the best thing for us is to be consistently in the top 3 group and BUILD.

That will work, do that every year. We are having success in landing our top targets more than ever before in the 3 of the last 4 classes (2018, 2020, 2021) and it’s a blessing to see

Yet most people want to fire Manny despite his recruiting success. Will he be a successful HC? Maybe, maybe not, but it takes more than 2 years to recover from the cluster !@#$ of the previous 15+ years. He has shown the willingness to make changes, and obviously he can recruit considering the last 2 classes in the midst of a 6-7 season last year.

Overhaul the defensive staff, continue recruiting at an elite level, and we're cooking with gas

Blue Chip CBs (roughly the 50 CBs):
Florida: 2
FSU: 2
ND: 1
Ole Miss: 1
LSU: 1
MSU: 1
Mich: 1

Money bags georgia having only 1 makes me very happy. Finish out with 14 of them and I burn my 2020 pants.

Ding Ding Ding...Winner

Does anyone really have confidence these players will be properly developed? Maybe some on the offensive side of the ball, but highly unlikely on the defensive side.

 

[canesplaymaker]

No UCF or USF or any other Florida school besides UF and FSU. That’s the way it should be every year

 

[90scane]

CB:
3 upperclassmen
3 underclassmen

Likely to take 2 from the portal = 8.

The only other big factor: can Blades play again with the heart concerns.

Beyond those numbers, it comes down to WHO is teaching them because clearly Ivey's footwork still sucks, Blades and Ivey don't turn their heads when the ball is in the air, most of them suck at using the sideline as an extra defender not to mention pushing someone out of bounds when in the air...

I guess GR15 and Phillips dont count right

Bro it’s all on Rumph. We got a some juice at every other position (maybe not a real talent upgrade at lb). How does a top 10 class not have any corners signed or even committed and we suck at the position. Well except couch. That guy can play.

 

[joseermonfils]

Take back the state

 

[Canes Stan]

I guess GR15 and Phillips dont count right

They’ll say those guys were early round picks no matter what lol. But Gil, Nesta, and couch have been good this year and clearly improved.

Hate to break it to you but Manny has been here for 5 of those 15 years! He is just as much apart of that cluster Fvck as anyone else in the program. Smh
