Recruiting Update Thread

The Cline commitment gets into what I was talking about earlier when I went through the recruiting classes.

Jonathan Cline would have been a top 4 recruit in the class in every year until 2019.

He is currently the WORST recruit in this class who isn't a specialist.
We over-hype the Rivals ratings. History says they don't know what they are talking about. Offensive linemen need to develop over time at the collegiate level. We need quality OL to commit to UCF and this young man should fit that ideal. It is rare for an incoming Frosh OL to play right away.

full recruiting nerd question but does anyone know how the staff runs visits compared to Heupel and Frost? know Frost did that dinner at Universal I think
 
Situation like son of last defensive coordinator. Hope he has a great experience. It’s added pressure being the son of a coach. My dad left my HS so I wouldn’t have to deal with that. Hopefully college will be different but practice and schedule will be a grind.
 
I really hope we can hang on to Dylan. I think he’s going to be the kind of qb we’re looking for and a competition between him and TC will produce a hell of a starter! I really feel he’s the real thing and teams will be coming after him by the end of the season. He kicked ass in several camps this summer.

I’m also coming around on this kid, not letting “rankings” dictate. He looks good, smooth, another good fit for Gus’ offense.

Excited to see his Sr year.

I dont know what the criteria is, but maybe their campus is like UCF in 90s. You have to leave campus to do anything?
 
My guess is the campus must not have many things around it. Plus Houston is a s***hole so theres that
Houston has been a good place to live the last couple of decades. Good culture, low cost of living in most areas, other areas of extreme wealth, great job market (what experienced Engineers make in Florida is embarrassing), great food, and a thriving high end exotic car culture.

Now UH is not in a great area of the city, and borders on a bad part. Plus it is still a mostly commuter school, much the same as most colleges located in major urban areas (UCF)….it is just the way it is. So UH struggles with having an on campus culture, just like UCF when we went there.
 
Houston is one of the worst planned big cities on Earth and unbearable humidity without the payoff of blue waters.

UH probably has a similar situation as USF despite the OCS , they just got deep pocket boosters
