I really don't believe that it helps snow-bird recruiting when they got to come to Florida for a week in the Spring, seeing as how the Gator recruits will get to be here year round....
We are certainly in no rush to go up to Meat-chicken territory to hold our Spring camps...
Anyone who wants to play their football in Nov at (freeze-yo-azz-off) Michigan is welcome to it, but not me! The Gators can still enjoy the lakes and beaches in Nov. down here...
Then why did the sec react like failing lst graders in banning the camps. I've lived in the south, Bama for 5 yrs and had a kid playing peewee football, it is not football weather and the ave temp of games in north are a hell of alot more comfortable than playing in a overheated play pen.I really don't believe that it helps snow-bird recruiting when they got to come to Florida for a week in the Spring, seeing as how the Gator recruits will get to be here year round....

I don't know why the SEC banned them, or when they did it, then or now.
I also don't care either. Just like I didn't care if the has-beens from yankeeville have to run all over the country trying to bs southern recruits into going to their schools.
Why not? How about this for a reason:
Since 2009, Top 10 NFL picks by league:
SEC (27);
Big 12 (17);
ACC (13);
Pac-12 (12);
B1G (5);
MAC (2);
And all tied at one each: AAC (1), BYU (1), FCS (1), Notre Dame (1)
~ That's 10 more than the Big 12 had, and it's 2 more than the ACC & PAC 12 had combined. The B1G plus everyone else only combined for 11. Plum-pitiful...
If the 'kitchen' (or your play pen) down here get's to hot for your, then please, return to the north, especially IF you really believe that it's better. (crickets)
And as my Granddaddy always said; "We don't give a damn how you did it up north."
PS
I have relatives in Illinois and the summer to early fall temps ran into the middle to high 90's.
The winters into the low, wet teens on a regular basis, bbrrrr.
Having a decent 'AVERAGE' temperature is just total BS, it's the 'extremes' that get you.
Let's agree that you don't like us recruiting in Fla, Ga, Bama, etc. but, we will and occasionally take a good recruit because the young fella knows that he will, most likely be down there playing in a bowl and prob kicking ass. See ya.
After watching the bowl game, seems like UF should be taking recruiting tips from Harbaugh. Cold weather training didn't seem to phase them. Did it look that way to you? Just curious

Nope, I don't agree with that bs. I've already said that I didn't care where the has-beens hold their camps.
Record? (must mean ancient history)
How many BCS-NC's did Mich win?
How many did the Big Ten/12 win, and by how many different teams?
---------------
L 2015 UF 7 - 41 Mich (UF starting QB 6-0, then backup QB 4-4)
~ UF had already lost to LSU, FSU, UA.
W 2014 UF 28 - 20 ECa
L 2012 UF 23 - 33 UL
W 2011 UF 24 - 17 tOSU (-7) -- Mich 40 - 34 tOSU (-6)
W 2010 UF 37 - 24 PSU (-13) -- PSU 41 - 31 Mich (-10)
W 2009 UF51 - 24 Cincy (-27)
W 2008 #2 UF 24 - 14 OK #1 (-10) for the BCS-NC
L 2007 UF 35 - 41 Mich (+6, credit to Henne on having his best ever, career day)
~ UF had already lost to AU, LSU, UGA.
W 2006 #2 UF 41 - 14 tOSU #1 (-27) for the BCS-NC - tOSU 42 - 39 Mich (-3)
~ That was the year that some idiots wanted the NC game to be a OH vs MI rematch.
W 2005 UF 31 - 24 Iowa
Three bowl losses during Ron Zook's 3 years, including:
L 2002 8-5 UF 30 -38 Mich 10-3 - (the Zooksters 1st season)
UF had already lost to Mia, Ms, LSU, FSU.
Timing is a big deal imo. Mich shares the luck of Miami in which years they've played UF.
~ But whatever you do, avoid talking BCS-NC comparisons between UF and Mich with those recruits....
===========
Florida produces around 100 D1, Power 5 recruits per year, so some of them are going out of state, and a few will even go out of the SEC, so what? Ga, Tx, and Calif are the other big recruit producing states behind Florida. The NE used to be big, along with the PAC 10, but that was 30+ years ago and fast receding into the past, just like the Rose Bowl. They are mostly 'PR spit and polish' vice substance now days imo.
==========
As to recruiting: Current 2016 Gator Roster including WO's:
From Florida - 77
Out of State - 32 (29.3%)

Looks like the Florida Gators recruit 'coast to coast and north to south' to me.
They take the majority from talent rich Florida, and then cherry pick the rest of the country.
And we don't have to move our camps all over the country to get our quality recruits.
You must have trouble looking up info on your puter.
Mi could use some more cruits from the south but from Bama, not Florida, we already have players better than they do. I'm off this silly board as of right now. Bye, say thanks to the next snowbird spending his money and keeping Fla going.

This would have significantly more impact if you could muster a win against Michigan once in a while.And additional note to the invisible/disappearing meat-chicken:
The SEC led all conferences in NFL Draft selections for the 10th consecutive year, and the Florida football program once again contributed to that streak.
UF’s seven draft picks tied Alabama for the most among league schools, and the Gators (2) still lead the SEC in first-round selections after Thursday’s results.
Plus we still won't be moving any summer camps anywhere, and especially not up North. We're already where the smart people/players want to be, (Gainesville, Florida) so why go anywhere else?
HA HA HA TRUE DATThis would have significantly more impact if you could muster a win against Michigan once in a while.

You can have the games we'll just take your coach and gut your programYou a Buckeye? Sorry, since we own tOSU, you need to speak to us humbly.
Well thanks for those national championships in football and basketball at your expense.You can have the games we'll just take your coach and gut your program
You can have the games (no, we took them) we'll just take your coach and gut your program
Sorry. Didn't mean to hurt your feelings. Ya'll gotta get over your butt hurt about losing Urban. I know its hard but ya just gotta do it. Feel me? As for you beating the Bucks, man thats been 10 years ago. 10 years. Long time ago. LET IT GO DOG LET IT GO sadDelusional as most schmuckeyes are.
ESPN took in our 'burned-out' X-coach, along with his many (unnamed) problems, not your hapless schmuckeyes. And if Heisman pretender Troy Smith had been at UF, he'd have been the 3rd stringer at best. UF 41 - 14 OSU vs the SEC's 3rd best defense.
And UF supposedly 'gutted program' has had 1 losing season since 1980, how about your always over-rated schmuckeyes? (2 losers plus 2 more 6 win seasons since 1980)
With the major difference between us being that UF plays in the toughest conference in the nation, while the schmuckeyes just play around in the BigTen/12/whatever....
BTW, how many times have your schmuckeyes held both the Football and B-Ball NC's in the same season or calandar year? (crickets) --
Or how about the Directors Cup, since you mentioned the word 'Program' to us?
How many consecutive Top 10 national finishes have you had?
And speaking of being 'gutted,' how'd you fair after your latest cheater (Tressel) had to be run outta town? He sure gave our Gator's fits,,,, (or laughter).
The Meat Chickens that just spanked your little bootiesHint: Buy a dog and name him Clue, so's you'll finally have one.
Most Gator fans were glad to see Urban Liar hit the road to ESPN.
When the desperate schmuckeyes took him in a couple of years later it was a ho-hum for most of us.
News Flash: I would not trade you McElwain for Meyer.
HA HA HA HA
I think that the pressure of the SEC was to much for Urban, so he fled back home to 3rd rate country. Thats what you get for thinking Einstein
He'd much rather face the has-been meat-chickens every year, than Alabama for the SEC-C, and the rest of UF's yearly schedule (TN, UGA, LSU, SCa, ect & FSU).
You mean the meat-chickens that florida has never beaten? The meat chickens that just embarrassed florida? The meat chickens that flat out own Florida?
Urban and BillyD are gone.
McElwain and White have arrived.
In your usual ignorance, you didn't realize that both were 1st year upgrades to those that they replaced. HA HA HA HA
Urban's 1st year 9-3 -- McElwain's 1st year SECe-C 10-4
BillyD's 1st year 13 wins losing season -- Whites 1st year 22 wins and the NIT.
Like Blobby Bow-down, Urban realized that it's a lot easier to make it to the NC game from a lesser conference with a much weaker schedule, than it is to have to compete all season long in the SEC. LMAO
Recent history is it? Did your schmuckeyes win the NC in 2015? Did they even play for it?
Did your gators?
Schmuckeyes = Gator's Door-mat,,, (speaking of a massive butt-hurt)
Dude your gators haven't been talked about since Urban was there
Let us know the next time (if ever) that the schmucks beat the Gators.
Aw little chamber pot its a coming. Its a coming.
PS
I'm posting on my own home board, while you're just another trolling house fly...
Bout like you sucking on Bamas teetA schmuckeye fan swings on a meatchicken's jock. Now I've seen it all... LMAO!
Oh BTW;
COCOA, Fla. — Four star recruit Bruce Judson has cited his lack of communication with Ohio State coach Urban Meyer as the reason for his de-commitment from the Buckeyes back in October.
Bruce Judson has been recruited by the last three head coaches for the Florida Gators.
The four-star athlete from Cocoa, Fla., used to be committed to Urban Meyer and Ohio State, and he’s currently being pursued by UF coach Jim McElwain and his predecessor, Will Muschamp, now the head coach at South Carolina.
Judson told SEC Country he likes McElwain more than Meyer and Muschamp.
“There’s no debate. It’s coach McElwain,” Judson said. “No disrespect to coach Meyer or coach Muschamp, but they run their program a little differently. I like the way coach Mac does it.
“Even though coach Mac might not look too young, he has that kind of relationship where you can clown and joke around with him. But there’s a time to get serious and there’s a time to play. He balances both. Coach Mac brings different energy when he talks to you. But he also doesn’t tell you what you want to hear. He tells it like it is. Other coaches don’t really come at you that way, but that’s how he is. When my mom and dad and my family like you, then that’s all I need to hear.”
Bout like you sucking on Bamas teet
Sucking on the SEC now huh? Suck a little harder, compare the Bucks to your Gators for first round picks. When you compare hopefully it'll shut your piehole up.Another 'swing and a miss' for ya.
The SEC has won 8 of the last 10 Football NC's with 4 different teams.
Alabama - 4 (3 of 4 were with either McElwain or Nussmeier as their OC)
Florida - 2 (also has 7 consecutive Top 4 finishes for the Director's Cup)
Auburn - 1
LSU - 1
How many for the Big-Ten/whatever were NC winners? (mostly has-beens)
Over that 10 Year span, the SEC has led the nation every year in NFL draft picks.
Florida, not Alabama leads the SEC in All Time 1st Round NFL draft picks.
Sorry. Didn't mean to hurt your feelings. Ya'll gotta get over your butt hurt about losing Urban. I know its hard but ya just gotta do it. Feel me? As for you beating the Bucks, man thats been 10 years ago. 10 years. Long time ago. LET IT GO DOG LET IT GO sad
