He got a crystal Ball to both Clemson and Florida last night. 3 for Clemson one for Florida in total.

Just on 247. On3 has him tending to Florida as well, although they are less reliable.
Sounds like it’s 50/50 though.

Billy is clearly still upset at Dabo for firing him.

Brian Dohn and Wiltfong have flipped him to Florida now. Same with Paul Strelow.
I hope they are wrong. But man it’s not looking good.

Wiltfong has him going to the Gators, he's right most of the time, looks like he's signing with the Gators.

Good question. Or do we wait and try for a portal pickup. I know Francis posted below that recruiting is done, we're not good yada yada... but only getting one of the 4 we really wanted doesn't spell disaster but definitely a concern.
Poe
Saterwhite
Westphal
Especially when it looked good for 2 of them.

There’s still plenty of time to offer a kid. Jameson Riggs is still a possibility. This is just an inexplicable OL class. TA signed a great one last year. Not sure what happened this year.

If Billy does not do a tremendous amount better than last year's 6-7 record, he may not make it into his 3rd year as the UF head coach. The UF fans I know are not happy. Fletcher may wish to consider that fact.

He should think about that, but most are looking at $ being offered at other places. Regrettably, I’m afraid the $ will completely ruin college FB as we once knew it, if it already hasn’t.

Yes, I mentioned on an earlier thread that Dabo (and Saban) are telling these young men the truth ...... if they play there will be plenty of NIL money. Apparently Florida (same school that the kid we were recruiting committed to) is promising NIL money just to go there. NIL money for a lineman who may or may not turn out to play much may not be appealing to a player who is promised money just to come. We don't know that is what UF is doing but I think many people in the know suspect it.

If that happens it would be a ball kick.

we are still good at recruiting! We just don't have the same amount of money to throw at these kids. Most of these schools have much bigger alumni bases and more big pockets to pay these kids.

tickets will be cheaper and more plentiful. And less traffic on game day!

Bob you are all over it, a couple of losing seasons would free up a lot. Traffic here would go from 50% coots to 75%…
The fly by night fans(only fans when you win National Championships) would be gone too.

We can go take one from VT or any other ACC team we want. Clemson always has options because we are still on the hill.
Just trust the Good Lord has the right Clemson man for the job.
Sometimes their pocketbooks are bigger, it’s a gamble at best for Florida, when it doesn’t pay off like that 5 star RB they stole from us nobody ever says hey this was a good thing for Clemson & our culture.
You never know we might get everyone back for a 5th or 6th season.

Putnam is gone for sure.
Parks and Mayes can return for a 5th season.
Those are our only seniors. Obviously someone could transfer, but we haven’t been hit as hard as other teams have with kids leaving.
