FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – 95/247 Gator commit #7 OLB Derek Wingo 6-2 210 **** was presented with his All-American Bowl jersey on Thursday when the All-American Bowl Selection Tour made its first top in sunny South Florida. He has totaled 42 tackles and 10 sacks in 9 games as a senior playing for St. Thomas Aquinas.

Wingo committed to Florida back in June. He said that he's "100 percent" locked in with Dan Mullen and the Gators. With Wingo not wavering on his pledge to Gators, he has instead been busy helping Mullen's staff recruit. The athletic 'backer said that he has not only been pushing Florida on a pair of his high school teammates in Top-247 OT Marcus Dumervil and OG Marlon Martinez, but he's also been in the ear of Deerfield Beach Top-247 RB Jaylan Knighton.

Year after year some make a big deal out of the recruit star rankings.
At UF, the 3-4 stars often out-perform the 5 stars.
BUCK Jonathan Greenard is a former 3 star, #82 ranked OLB.
He's just been named the 2x - Consecutive SEC DL PoW

~~ Greenard named Walter Camp National Defensive Player of the Week
He'll be yet another Gator 3 star that goes in the 1-2 Rnd of the NFL draft.

While stars and ratings do count, just not as much as some make it out to be... :rolleyes:
 
A Big weekend is coming at Florida:

The Gators will have big official visit lists the next 3 weekends beginning with their primetime showdown with FSU. Holding the No. 13 class in the country, Top247 WR Xzavier Henderson returns, a legacy recruit that arrives with a great feel for the Gators already. UF is in a tight battle alongside Alabama, Clemson and Georgia for Henderson.

It wouldn’t be surprising to see Florida move into pole position for Miami (Fla.) Palmetto WR Kenton Poiter who saw Syracuse in the summer and FSU earlier this month.

Dan Mullen and his staff will take their shot at Top247 OLB Phillip Webb who is trending LSU on the Crystal Ball while also strongly considering Auburn and Alabama.

With ESD just around the corner, the recruiting will really heat up beginning with this coming Saturday....

How many NC's has lyin' Riley Coyote won? Even with the advantage of coasting along in what's left of the Big12/10/whatever... o_O

Come to think of it, how many NC's has any Big12/10/whatever team won this century?
2000 Chokers beat 11-2 ACC/FSUcks 13-2
2005 Shorthorns beat 12-1 LAC12/USCw 41 - 38 in a defensive battle.... :rolleyes:
Since then NADA as both the LAC-12 and Big-12/10/whatever implode... :oops:

For now, Florida's 2020 commitment list can expand from its current size of 21 to 27. Meaning the Gators have 6 ships left to give for this recruiting cycle, either to high school prospects or additional transfers in.

Apparent needs for the coming class:
1 RB, 1 WR, 1-2 OL, 1-2 SDE's,,, maybe 1 LB and 1 more QB??? :cool:
 
The ESD period begins on Dec 18th.

ESPN Recruiting - Gators 2020 Class of 21 (so far)
11 are ESPN Top 300's.
12 are 4-star rated (80+)
With 7 more at the 3.5+ stars rating (75-79)
The 6-3 190 NR Punter from Australia is the #3 International punter per ProKicker.com.

Note:
OLB Derek Wingo was recently given a 5th star by Rivals.
SWAMP 247 has the class with 14 4-stars, and xfer OLB Cox at 5-stars

That said, stars and class rankings are mostly good for off season prattle.
It's only a place to start, not the whole answer on a recruit's (or class) potential.
It's the coaches evaluations and judgments that really matter.
Watch their film where available, and judge for yourself, like the coaches do.
Reading a variety of articles on them can sometimes also help with perspective.
Keeping in mind that every year, some 2-3 stars will excel, while some 4-5 stars will bust.... o_O

#22 OT Joshua Braun 6-6 335 **** - A Top 247- Live Oak, FL - Early Enroll
Offers: UF - UGA-AU-SCa--FSU-Mia-Mich-USF -- UGly flip
Josh will arrive today (Friday) to take part in bowl prep practices.

"I want to play for Florida because it is a great academic school, and it will enable me to accomplish the goals I have set for myself," Braun said. "I will be pushed academically while bettering my self as an athlete on the field. After re-examining my choices, the University of Florida is where I am supposed to be."
 
2020 EE commits are at UF on Friday: for their Physicals, with Bowl practice coming soon.

#5 QB-dt Anthony Richardson 6-4 230 4.5/40, 70+ Yd cannon.
278 of 523 53% for 4,633 yds, 16.7 Yd/Comp, 37 TD's, 19 Int
With 10.5" hands, he also played WR and K/P returner.

OT Joshua Braun 6-6 335 - UA-AA

OG Richard 'Richie' Leonard 6-2 320 (Elite-11 Orlando OL MVP)

All 3 are physically developed and ready to go at their positions.

The Gators are expecting 10 of the current 23 commits to be EE's.
==========

The Florida Gators 2020 recruiting class opened the day ranked No. 8 in the nation according to the 247Sports Composite Team Recruiting Rankings. UF moved up to No. 6 overall with the commitment of Live Oak (Fla.) Suwannee 4-star OT Joshua Braun. The Gators jumped the Georgia Bulldogs and Texas Longhorns on their climb.

Florida's class is up to No. 4 in the Southeastern Conference. The SEC teams ranked ahead of UF are the Alabama Crimson Tide at No. 1 in the country, LSU Tigers as No. 3, and the Texas A&M Aggies at No. 5.

Now you can add another flip to UF.

BTW, 247 Crystal Ball says:

RB Henry Parrish - UF
S Avantee Williams - UF.
Ath Demarcus Beckwith - UF
(iG crosses fingers)

Currently uncommitted, leaning elsewhere
WR Xzavire Henderson - CU / UF
WR Majon Wright - UA / UF
WR Malachi Wideman - FSU / UF

Currently committed elsewhere:
WR Sam Brown - UF / WVa
OLB Tyler Berrong - UF / USF

~~ Still Need:
1 RB -- 1 WR -- and a solid Plus-1 somewhere.
 
I often wonder about the difference between the various recruit service ratings, and the HC offers: Especially when you look at how many 3 stars that the Gators have sent on to the NFL, while 4-5 stars go un-drafted. These are Gator 2020's.

Note: There are considerable differences between the ratings-Ht-Wt in their various service bio's.

Another thing for the OoC rivals posting here to consider is this:
UF now has the #8 ranked class in the nation.
While that's only good enough for the #6 class in the freakin' SEC...

A Top 10 rated class is important.
After than, player desire and coaching makes the difference in results.
 
Possible Gator OL of the near future?

LT Josh Braun 6-6 335
LG Wardrick Wilson 6-4 305
C Griffin McDowell 6-3 300
RG Ethan White 6-5 330
RT Will Harrod 6-5 334

The 2020 OL will continue to be a work in progress. The Gators had nine 1st and 2nd-year players working on the OL in bowl practices, and they'll add 1-2 more for spring ball and likely 1-2 more for the fall.

The new OL, starters and rotation, will not continue to be the problem that it's been for years now. Hevesy is getting it done for the present and he's building it up for the future. A year to year balanced OL roster is on the way.

The 2020 Early Enrollees arriving on campus: (8 of 11 have arrived)

QB-dt Anthony Richardson

WR Jordan Pouncey - TX xfer

With 3 more expected in soon.

~ OT Issiah Walker jr

CB Jahari Rogers

RB Lorenzo Lingard - Mia xfer
==========

Key for Spring practice are the 3 new DB's, ~ and the 3 OL'men

Both RB Lingard and WR J.Pouncey would need waivers to play in 2020.
But IF not, both positions already have solid depth returning.
Dan --- " We'll be OK. But hopefully the NCAA does what's right for those 2 student-athletes"
