Recruiting Update Thread

Steven Leonard still has a Crystal Ball to UCF for him that is all I’m seeing on that guy (Patterson). A lot of smoke around us flipping Goldie Lawrence though, he will be at the game tonight along with all our local commits.
This kid will be a Top 100 player when he is a senior and he seems to really like UCF.
Hopefully Gus offered this kid in person last night, he looks like Marlon Williams.

didn’t Walker say he wasn’t taking visits?
he is in Gainesville today …..🥶

Would love to have him, could be a generational talent here. Fine too if he goes somewhere else like UF as just another 4*
A shame that kind of thing is lost on most 18 year olds.....
If he would be a generational talent here, he would be anywhere. He may be better off here if hes marginal but thats not why we want him.

I mean that in terms of a UCF player (like Milton), not necessarily a first overall NFL pick.
Visits are an important part of the process for these players. Sometimes their first destination isn’t where they stay.
Sounds like we need GOL to make house calls the night before signing day to smile at them last.
would have preferred he just committed to Ohio State or Michigan over us during the summer vs
a flip to the Gators
UF already has 5 DTs committed in 2023.
4 of them are 6'5'' or taller, Walker is 6'3''.
His likelihood of getting on the field as a freshman/sophomore drops dramatically if he flips.
At UCF he will play in every game from day 1.
Was thinking the same thing but was just too lazy to look it up. Also after Isaiah Nixon flipped the gators got a few more edge rushers to commit, they are stacked on the DL for this recruiting period. I think Walker wants to go to some free games with his buddies.
He has a chance to plug the middle with Lee Hunter if he keeps his commitment
still not good if he goes to Gainesville 2 Saturdays in a row
also I am starting to think these week night games are bad for recruiting, he can only come bc his HS as a bye week but you can have much larger numbers of unofficial visitors for Saturday games . Also not to mention that the full campus tailgating experience is much more complete on Saturdays. He hasn’t got to see UCF on a traditional Saturday while Uf has a Saturday night game for the 2nd week in a row
Yup, if im t-will im calling to invite him for GT game. Id say cincy or smu at night but i think timing is key to get him back on campus
True, but I don't think its a deciding factor. If that was the deciding factor for recruits, then they aren't thinking clearly.
I don't think Walker will flip. From watching his commitment stream, he seems like an genuine and loyal kind of man.
seriously has he followed recruiting?

There have been flips for really random reasons
Fair. It's tough decisions for them.
They have so much potential, literally millions of dollars, maybe tens of millions on the line, and sometimes don't have the best guidance, or the best experiences to make such decisions as young adults.
And sometimes they don't have the best upbringing and come from really rough neighborhoods.
I just think they need some extra support as they navigate their future.
Idk about him but it was mentioned in an interview as to why one of the Harris twins stated they liked the idea of staying home and going to UCF. Whatever works…was Walker the commit whose girlfriend is going to attend UCF? root for that relationship to stay strong
We lost walker tonight. No way he will want to play for these losers
Defense is coached well but yeah I could see him questioning things . It sucks bc the fanbase brought it which I was worried about w the weather
It is one game. Our defense looks decent. Our O Line is the issue
