There's good and bad news on the IMG top performers list. Florida commit Rick Wells is once again a top performer. That's the good news. The bad news is, too many of these kids are listing rivals instate of the Gators as their top choices. Someone like Fagen, Volusia is Gator Country. Guys like that, those are the kids you start to lose ground with when your program is down 4-5 years while your rivals are on top of the world.

When we talk about kids being a fan of a school, more often than not, those kids aren't picking their favorites at 4-7 years old. It starts when they are 9-12 and they start wearing successful teams colors and playing with them as their team on NCAA.

These kids now, for the most part, know about Manuel, Watkins, etc... more so than Tebow, Harvin and Company.

Florida needs to begin to swing some momentum back in their favor.
