LOL.
These 5 star guys are only looking at the NFL and getting paid, and taking the best path to get there. What is the one thing that would make a guy take a chance on a lower payday tomorrow? A bigger payday today.
Arik Gilbert to UF!!

LOL is right... at your insulting families you don't even know. Do you feel the same about Brenton Cox? SMH
@LizardGrad89 ... and it's official. Gilbert is now a Dawg... so is Clemson All-ACC CB transfer Derion Kendrick. Good day for the Dawgs.
And don't forget Tykee Smith...the 5th ranked DB returning in 2021. Kirby proving to be the portal king. Just an amazing job filling needs. Hope it works out.

That's rather ironic from you considering NO ACTIVE COACH IN Division 1 FOOTBALL IS WORSE AT TAKING 4 AND 5 STAR TALENT AND NOT GETTING THEM INTO THE NFL, THAN KIRBY THE PAYDAY. Kirby Smart is at the very top of the active head coaching list of coaches who have the least chance of developing you and getting you into the NFL.
You dawgs act like just because you get all 7 trillion 5, 6, 7, and 8* players each recruiting cycle, that you are able to improve them to the point they are an NFL viable product. History states quite the contrary, and no, 2020 was a decent year for UGLY, but it does NOT budge Beaver from the #1 spot on wasting talent.
That or you guys just have a freaking gift from god for recruiting players that are HIGHLY overrated in high school.
??? Zachary Evans??
But he hasn't. So let's look at this another way. Kirby has managed to lose to Sgt. Carter, Boom, Fish Fry and Swamp Donkey. But he hasn't figured out how to lose to Cousin Eddie. And that's bothering many of you quite a bit. It’s been two whole years yet you guys act like Kirby is 17-0...

With 29 offers from those schools and 247 only rates him a 3-star???
Take those star ratings and shove them, I'm going by Gator coaches and other top offers.
As I've been saying for months, I wouldn't trade any of Dan's roster TE's for Gilbert.
And while I would have taken him as a xfer, I'm happier that he went to UGly.
Why did he go to UGly instead of UF?
Because he might play at UGly, and he can likely stay academically eligible there....

Better make up a couple more batches of 'shine to sell, player buying money is getting low.
Oh Paco, it took him 7 months to get up the courage to come back after last year's butt whipping, and you went and banned him right off. Poor guy.??? Zachary Evans??

Georgia really is this year's Tennessee. Charmin soft back end to the schedule last year has given them false hope for the upcoming season. Let's see how Daniels reacts to a real honest-to-God pass rush. Clemson is going to have him curled up in a ball, whimpering "no mas". Kid's brittle. And, having seen his backups in action, if Clemson takes him out Dwags could easily be 8-4 this year.
You're freaking crazy... LOL. For the record, we're going to beat Clemson by 10.
What's your Florida projection for this year?
Might need to have Sad put the dawg title tracker up again...they seem to so easily forget

Y'all have them on the hoops schedule or something?
For the record, no, you aren't. Do you think because they lost some guys they will take a step back? You never think that about yourselves, and they recruit BETTER than you. Kirby has been on a three year slide. I see no reason for that to change.
For you, a lot will depend on whether Daniels nuts up this year. Don't think we didn't notice that he "just couldn't get well enough to play" until after you had gotten past the tough part of your schedule. We also haven't forgotten he ran to the West Coast to play touch football, and STILL managed to blow out his knee. There are a lot of guys who can throw well against air. Let's see what he does with a helmet in his chest. We've seen your experienced backups at work, wouldn't be surprised to see the #2 guy be Vandergriff. Do you want to be playing the SEC schedule with a true frosh QB? Yes, I know you've done that before, but do you think you can hand it off 65% of the time this year and win games? We've seen what passing attacks do to your defense, and it's not pretty.
As for us, I would LOVE to predict a great year, but as we both know, we still have Todd Grantham. I simply cannot be optimistic while he's on the sidelines. I won't admit what I think our record will be, but suffice to say I don't see double digit wins.
This most likely - we have to hope GA loses another SEC game. It sucks a Clemson loss has no bearing on things except playoff hopes.
Dan's X-fer Portal Guys:
Florida’s recent success also can’t be overlooked. Florida added receivers Van Jefferson (2nd round pick) and Trevon Grimes (undrafted free agent) in 2018. In 2019, Florida added defensive end Jonathan Greenard (round 3 selection), wide receiver Justin Shorter (contributed a great deal in 2020), and BUCK Brenton Cox (started at BUCK in 2020) among other transfers that look to be payers for the Gators in the future.

I looked over their schedule. I see they get Arkansas for their rotational west game. I believe they win that. I'm hoping AU gets after them with a new coach but that's unlikely. Is Bo Pix still running that offense? The rest of the east is what it always is. Subpar. They may slip up somewhere on the way. Who knows.
Yep us catching Bama and Auburn probably being down gives them a nice advantage. If we win the head to head I would say its 50/50 who takes the division if that QB of theirs can play at all.
The good thing (for us) is that we have pretty much owned Auburn for a while now....on a 13-3 run right now. I'm betting we don't lose a conference game this year.
Naw, you'll lose 2 games at the least: UF, and then UA in the SEC-C game, (if you even get there).
(so I'm hoping that you bet that dried up peanut farm on your undefeated SEC record)
so Auburn picked up the LSU transfer, TJ Finley, that started after Miles Brennan got injured. He played very well and ended up getting replaced by fellow freshman Max Johnson (who beat us).
he recently transferred after spring ball. Listened to him talk about it on After Further Review with Matt Moscona. Kid is talented. Better than Nix.
"Better than Nix".
I would hope so. Hopefully, for their sake, he's much better.
I hate Auburn like poison, but we don't play them, and the Bammers and UGaly do, so...
Tell me right now we are playing the Barn in the SECCG (because, if they win both those games, we probably are), I say "sign me up".
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- A seemingly constant and daily source of conversation for Florida fans given the current program backdrop is recruiting vs. development. With stalwart recruiter -- but perhaps so-so gameday coach and developer -- Kirby Smart coaching rival Georgia, there has been a stark contrast between the Georgia program and the Florida program led by Dan Mullen.
Florida once again tabbed one of nation's best at developing players
According to a 247Sports method for quantifying player development, Florida ranked second nationally in developing Top247 talent from the period starting in 2012 and ending in 2016.

lmao Georgia should worry about beating UF before it thinks it can beat Clemson haha

If their secret is just bags then frankly that annoys me. Not bc they’re getting away with it but bc we aren’t. There’s no downside to dropping bags since even if you get caught you only get a slap on the wrist. You don’t get any points for “moral victories” and frankly I don’t care if we drop bags all over the place. I doubt it’s just money, but if that’s it, then I’m pissed that we’re not doing it. Why shouldn’t we?
Long ways until signing day.🤫

We learned why in 1984. All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.
One day Georgia might win something with all this talent. You know after jumping out to a 14-0 lead in last years game Florida outscores them 44-14 with a fraction of the on field talent Georgia allegedly has? And Florida finally has a dual threat QB this season? False sense of optimism from Dawgs for no reason, as usual.
