Players are dropping like flies down at UF. 2 more transfers today means they now only have 72 scholarship players.

Weis recruited the OL pretty well. We just didn't seem to develop them that much. I seriously think Longo has made a HUGE impact in that area.

I'll agree with the development and Longo but not the first. Young was the only prime time OL recruit. Weis went after a bunch of top rated recruits like Olgesby, Miller, etc and chronically came up short. I did a breakdown on Weis OL recruits around the time Kelly was hired and there was discussion on whether he could recruit as well as Charlie. Weis whiffed alot on OL and DL.

I don't want to hijack Agholor thread anymore than we already have.

Per SBNation
Clark and Christian are the eighth and ninth players to leave the program since Will Muschamp was hired. It also means that, when you take the top two classes from 2010 (Florida/USC), one-fifth of those players are no longer at their schools.

That makes for the argument that "PT is available" BUT it raises the question as to why so many new players are leaving. Clark was a 3 star ATH that played in 2 games returning 2 punts. Christian was the #2 TE in his class. He played in all 7 games this season but only had 4 catches. The Gators starting TE Reed has played in 5 game with 12 catches. Doesn't sound like Charlie is using the TE there as he did here.

Regardless these openings aren't where Agholor would play.

Fans here take shots at Rees but UF is ranked #100 in passing while ND is #32. Rees doesn't have the HS Creds of Driskel or Brissett but he's accomplishing more.

Rainey is UF's leading receiver with 18 catches. #2 has 13. ND has 5 guys with 20 or more receptions.

Look at all of those top 5 and top 10 guys. How are those not prime OL recruits?

EDIT: sorry just realized this is an Agholor thread... please delete if too much clutter.

How about him constantly tweeting with USC guys and stating that he's rooting hard for USC tonight?

I think everyone seriously over-estimates our chances. We could still land him for sure. But I don't think we "lead."

Exactly. People are drastically overstating our chances.

Yes it is. Well sorta...I think Lou is quoted saying, "If what you did yesterday seems big, you haven't done anything today."

Note: If he's a fan of Lou, let's hook them up for a chat!

THANK YOU Ironman. For us fans whom cannot spend 12 hours a day on this site but love the Irish it is very frustrating sifting through a few bickering and sharing every single thought on and off topic. This forum is by far the greatest. Let's keep that way.
