Tunsil

  • Numbers will never be an issue when it comes to Tunsil.. If he wants in at the end, there will be a scholly for him to take no matter what. I just think we'll have five commited Ol's plus Garcia by the time he's ready to decide, which pushes him even further away from UF and more toward UGA or FSU, where he was probably going anyways. This kid feels just like Tim Jernigan to me, which probably isn't a coincidence. A guy everyone said was UF, but never really showed up to campus much and always flirted with everyone else more than UF. Every reason in the world to come to UF, but won't, just like Jernigan.

    UGA is looking to bring in 5-7 OL this cycle( 3-4 OT) so unless he is just using the "numbers" talk as BS then it comes down to relationship.

    I didn't mean the amount of OL's UF or UGA has commited, I just meant our current scholly numbers.

    All I"m saying is that we could be COMPLETELY full on NSD and if Tunsil called us to commit, we'd take him. In other words, not having "room" for him is out the window.. But yeah, UGA has a great OL class going already and they're about to add another big time four star OT soon. They'll have a bigger and better OL class than us by time he decides, with more young OL's on their roster as well.

    For some reason, depth charts and the amount of players we have commited at a certain position, hurts UF at certian positions more than it does other teams. I'll never understand it, but thats how it is. Bama can sign four or five elite LB's and DL's every single year with no issues. UGA has no issues landing QB's, RB's, WR's, and DL's no matter how many they just got or have commited.

    I think it's because we get negatively recruited against more than others do. These coaches used to use our stacked roster against us during our recent run and they still do.

    Sad part is that kids still listen to that crap instead of looking for themselves. They also hear the other side of that. How UF is down and blah blah blah. Having a good year this year and getting our players to the NFL in this draft can really help us close the deal on this class and the next one imo. We're right on the cusp of getting this thing going again in a big way imo. The state has already shifted back to us recruiting wise and now its time to do it on the field. Do that and we start to seperate again.

    panic

    lol

    said the same about FSU a few weeks back. Games and more games with these young katz.

    I try not to form to strong of opinions about these kids through the recruitment process, even with all the access now through social media & traditional media. That said, I wish some of the kids, who through their own hard work and god-given talent are blessed with 5-star rankings across multiple scouting services, would remain more humble & respectful throughout their respective recruitment. (a la Stefon Diggs) I don't want to think that Tunsil is getting so full of himself that he feels Muschamp & Co. must "show him the luv" 24/7 365 until NSD in order to secure his commitment.

    Feel the exact same way. It isn't like Tunsil is the only prospect the coaches have to recruit and they can't call him and check in on him when they are all over the country with other prospects.

  • As soon as we start winning big again, we won't have this problem very often. Kids will be butthurt and begging to get into our class instead of us having to blow them up every day to baby their ego's.

    I concur.

    Damn shame that UGA can walk into Fl yearly and take the top OL.
