Mad-Doggie-Delusions and Wild Speculations:
"a T/F likely to win the OLT spot and be a Freshman AA. He is that good."
Facts, not rubber-dollie OL Fiction...
RT Jawaan Taylor 6-5 340 So *** 5.5 - Cocoa, FL
Played in all 13 games throughout the season and started 12 at RT. Freshman All-America honors by ESPN.com, FWAA and Pro Football Focus. Selected to the Freshman All-SEC Team by the leagues Coaches’ and Gridiron Now. Member of ESPN All-SEC Bowl Team.
C T.J. McCoy 6-1 308 rsSo *** 5.6 - Clermont, FL - Began as 3rd string, but he became the default starter after both 1 & 2 were injured out.
He came off the bench to play center in UF’s game against SCa and never came off the field again; He played three-plus quarters at center for the Gators against the Gamecocks, and then started the final 4 contests of the season. He was just placed on the Rimington Award Watch List for 2017.
LT Martez Ivey 6-5 305 Jr ***** 6.1 - Apopka, FL - Started out of position, as a Fr-So at LG. Now that LT David Sharpe left early for the NFL draft, Ivey moves to his normal LT position.
2016 - Two-time SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week (UGA, South Carolina).
2nd Team All-SEC by the league’s Coaches and the Associated Press.
Maybe it's the rubber-dollie idiots that are doing the coaching, and not the number of recruiting stars that they were given.
UF's tFr 3 star 5.5 made AA, and the 3 star rsFr is now on the Rimington Award Watch List.
==========
In Mc's first 3 classes, he's brought in these guys at DE, along with some very good others:
#2 DE CeCe Jefferson Jr ***** 6.1
#2 DE Antonneous Clayton So ***** 6.1
#3 DE Zachary Carter Fr **** 5.9
And a couple of decent sized FNG's at NT/DT
DT/DE Elijah Conliffe 6-4 305 **** 5.8 - Hampton, Va
2016 Va All-Stars Defensive Team. 2016 VHSCA All-Star Game.
2015 Conference 10 Defensive Player of the Year
DT Kyree Campbell 6-3 323 **** 5.9 Woodbridge, Va
HS Sr - 62 tackles, 18 TFL 8 sacks, 4 pass deflections, 2 Ints and 3 blocked kicks. Played in the 2016 Offense-Defense All-American Bowl.
NT Tedarrell Slaton 6-4 360 **** 5.9 - U.S.Army-AA,

"Got the best M/LB in the SEC"
You claim, but I wouldn't trade you this guy for him.
MLB David Reese 6-0 244 So
As a tFr, he replaced 1/21 Lions draft pick Jarrad Davis when he got injured and he never missed a beat. Reese started the final 4 games of the regular season at MLB. He totaled 49 tackles and 2 TFL. In his 1st-career start against SCa, Reese tallied a game-high 11 tackles. He was named SEC Defensive Player of the Week after he posted a career-high 12 tackles and a 0.5 TFL in Florida’s SEC Eastern Division-clinching win at LSU. In the SEC Championship Game against Alabama, DE Jabari Zuniga blocked UA’s extra point attempt with 1:42 left in the first quarter, and Reese returned it for a defensive 2-PAT
For 244 LB's, he's still got some good speed to run the length of the field.

" best punter in the SEC"
P Johnny Townsend 6-1 211 rsSr - Orlando, FL
1st Team AA by CBS Sports.
1st Team All-SEC performer by ESPN and Gridiron Now.
He had 29 punts of 50+ yards and 27 punts inside the 20 yard line
>>> Ranked 1st in the Nation with a 47.9 yard average on 64 punts.
* And he was named to the SEC Academic Honor Roll.
PK Eddy Pinero 6-0 173 - Miami, FL -- Mc flipped him away from Saban.
He's kicked an 81 yard FG on the practice field.
He was 3/3 on FG's over 50 yds in 2016, and also 100% on PAT's
He was 21 of 24 (87.5%) overall, with 67% (14) of his FG's at 40+ yds.
His KO's are all out of the endzone, whenever the coach asks for that.
Jefferson and Ivey were Miss Chimp recruit and life long gater fans. Mr Ed LOST the other half of the DE duo to the Barn , Byron Cowart the #1 DE in the nation.
As lousy a coach as Lyle Jones is, he STILL managed to finish 15 spots in front of Mr Ed in 2015 and with 3 fewer players, finished only 1 spot behind him in 2016. I was hoping for another poor recruiting effort like Lyle had the past two seasons for this year so perhaps the new A/D would fire his incompetent arse. But right now he has the #2 team in the SEC and # 9 over all. LSU is the only SEC team in front of Lyle. But Ogre has 16 commits already.
I see that Miami and FSU are kicking the crap out of Mr. Ed in the state of Florida.
As for your 81 yd FG MADE IN PRACTICE, Whoppityfrikkindo. What somebody does when there is NO defense in front of them and NOTHING TO LOSE don't mean Chit Mr. Deranged There are 13 Planets in our solar system.
What did he do on the field when it counted and what was his best distance?
BTW, Townsend's brother couldn't beat out a WALK-ON for the punting job at UT and skulked out of town with his tail between his legs to punt for the Swamp Donkeys.
While older Townsend finished ranked # 1 in the SEC last year, our WALK-ON Trevor Daniel was not far behind him at #3. The year before as a Sophomore, he beat out Townsend for #2 spot in the SEC and was ranked #1 for much of the season but lost out to TAM's Drew Kaser for the top spot because Lyle is a gutless COWARD and in the last 4-5 games, he punted rather than go for it on 4th and short inside the opponent's 40 yard line or try for a F/G because he was afraid of not making it and losing games like he did early in the season. He did the same thing last year and STILL lost to S/C and Vandy. Cut into Daniel's avg. trying to kill the ball inside the 10 by pooching the ball.
