How recruiting classes can go to hell

Postby billybud » Wed Nov 30, 2011 9:22 am

That Gator 2010 recruiting class that some were dubbing as the "best of all time" has been a complete and utter bust outside of Easley, Floyd, and Elam. Kids have been transferring and the Gators are getting thin at some spots.

Gerald Christian - gone
Robert Clark - gone
Adrian Coxson - gone
Jonathan Dowling - gone
Chris Dunkley - gone
Jordan Haden - gone
Michael McFarland - gone
Lynden Trail - gone
Josh Shaw - gone

Mack Brown - likely will never contribute
Tyler Murphy - no true position, likely will never contribute
Neiron Ball - health issues , likely will never contribute

Programs, like FSU, that reload and never have to rebuild, don't need a ton of kids. They take the dozen or so that replace the graduates and the rest...move on...especially when they find out, they are never going to play. Reload programs groom these kids their red-shirt, Freshman and Sophomore years. So I think the kids know early on that they are not in the grooming stable but in the ring as spars.
