This is Billy Napier's Challenge

[ocalaman]

To have as many of our recruits on this type of AA roster as the Big Boys.

Setting the stage for All-American Bowl week

Many of the nation's best head to San Antonio this week for the nation's longest running and viewed high school football All-American game.

Ocala,

Can't predict the future but it would be nice !

 

[Jeff from Jax]

To flagellate myself, I checked the rosters at the AA Bowl looking for gator commits.

Found 2 -
#3 Devin Moore Safety
Naples (Fla.)
On3 Consensus: No. 186
Status: Signed with Florida

#46 Chris McClellan DT
Owasso (Okla.)
On3 Consensus: No. 101
Status: Signed with Florida

The one that got away -
"...WR Isaiah Bond – Alabama: Bond was the standout in 1-on-1’s for the East wide receivers, winning every rep in the morning session. The Alabama signee’s has sub-10.5 second speed transfers to the field. He looks like the fastest player on the East team, perhaps by a good margin. "

ESPN 300 athlete Isaiah Bond decommitted from Florida on Monday, Nov 22nd

It’s like that old cliché where a coach says, “Nobody can put more pressure on me than myself,” and the fans say, “Hold my beer.”

Etienne supposedly waiting till end of San Antonio AA Game to announce.

With Napier trying to poach the top two RBs at ULL, Citizen & Etienne probably going elsewhere.

ULL strikes back !

Matt Bergeron, former Southern Miss QB, who was announced as a Florida analyst hire on Dec. 28, has taken an on-field position with Louisiana as the Ragin’ Cajuns running backs coach.

His first job is probably to hold on to Emani Bailey & Montrell Johnson; keep them at ULL.

Johnson may be the real deal; no idea with Bailey.

Mario Williams, 5* WR from Plant City, FL is transfering from Oklahoma.

FWIW, Gators were in his "final" top 5.

Would love to see the gators get proactive on him.

Etienne announces for UF this weekend IMO. I don’t think we will go after both of those ULL RBs but if we did Emani Bailey is good and would be the one I would go after and I think he is the one the staff would go after. He was just a freshman and was the best RB on their team at the end of season. I would take Bailey and Ocyrus Torrance in a heartbeat.

Torrence has been offered by Michigan State, Clemson, Auburn & Ole Miss as well as Florida, so he's obviously highly thought of. Would be great to get him. Another LL player who may be coming is CB Mekhi Williams-Garner.

Is a reunion with Billy Napier in the cards?

Florida bound? Louisiana players O’Cyrus Torrence and Mekhi Garner enter transfer portal, per report

Billy Napier could have his eye on them in the transfer portal.

Yes Torrance is a wanted player by a lot of P5 programs. Rumor is Auburn has offered him a NIL deal.
