Out With the Old In With the New: April 17, 2024
With Spring Ball over, now is an excellent time to compare last year's roster to the current one. Is Florida in a better position heading into August based solely on addition by subtraction? I list them in order of the most significant impact on arrivals and departures. I am not listing the recruiting class, but they must be considered when comparing last year's roster to this upcoming one.

Just so we are all on the same page, this kid is a scholarship roster player 100%, However, because he can get an academic scholarship + NIL down the road, they were able to work this situation out, so technically, it is not a roster spot - excellent roster management. He is 100% a scholarship talent type of player.

I caught up with him last night. He told me he is still determining the date but should be visiting UF next week. The goal is two WRs.
