Gator's 2024-25 Recruiting / Portal

[instaGATOR]

With our offense being a balanced attack offense you wont see receivers with big numbers. I wonder how many passes a game DJ averages?

Last 3 Games with DJ as the full time starter, but his groin injury still not 100%.
17-26-22 = 65/3 = 22 Ave.

When was the last time we had a 1,000 yard receiver?

When was the last time we had a 1,000 yard receiver?

Pearsall missed it by just a few yards in 2023.

Taylor Jacobs in the early 2000s Zooks first year was the last one but we had like 4 or 5 since hit 900+ like Harvin etc.

If this is true about Pyburn, good riddance!!

Florida Gators Edge Jack Pyburn's Reported Outlandish Demands

Florida Gators edge rusher Jack Pyburn will play his final-year of eligibility somewhere else.

Pyburn chose LSU.

Pyburn chose LSU.

Curious what he got from them. We will probably never know for sure. He dang sure wouldn't come back to us after all that even if he didn't get much more than we were willing to pay him.

As long as McCray takes the usual year 2 jump we should be alright at Edge if injuries aren't a big issue.

Brian Kelly reportedly gave $1 million of his salary to go towards either recruiting or the portal. The way Napier hasn't earned his salary at UF, it's the least Napier should do as well.

Yep. Norvel did the same.

Even if Napier did that it wouldn't be wisely used overpaying Pyburn imo. I just hope we know what we are doing because in our places of need a lot of the top ones are already taken or supposed to sign with another team.
