Recruiting Update Thread

that’s true but still a feeling of a last minute kick in the ____ when up against UGA and USC visits , especially USC which is 3 time zones closer to home w great weather & campus. Still think if he looks at the depth chart scenarios UCF is the spot where the odds of seeing the field sooner wins out.
He comes off likes drama queen fishing for attention. This is the exact opposite of what KZ would have done.
if Justin Fields does not transfer it will be almost impossible for him to win the starting job there. Even if he looks equal in practice there will be way too much pressure to give it to the Georgia kid that waited 2 years on the bench
All kids do that when on a visit. In fact I don’t think a recruit has ever had a bad visit anywhere.
There’s a difference is showing off some swag from a visit and saying you had a good time. And posting all this stuff literally for the attention, retweets, fan base comments, and drama building.
But allegedly no USC offer yet. No evidence of a UCF offer either........
Are you the kind of guy who gets pissed at people for dancing at a party?
Let him have his fun.
and USC & Georgia already have 1 QB in this class. USC also has a 5 star 2020 solid verbal for an In State QB.
Can someone tweet him and tell him he’ll be our only scholarship qb for two years running
even if Travis comes Gabrielle would still be one injury away from being the Starter as early as September if he is the real deal. There is also the scenario that Mack doesn't have the consistency we all hope & the job is wide open next season
I guess I was counting last year as one year and all of this year as year two. Can’t imagine if he commits that we would add another scholarship qb this cycle
No but there is no way anyone can say with any certainty that he will be our only scholarship QB for two years running. Even if we don't commit another QB this cycle, which is a very big if, there is a very good chance that Quadry goes on scholarship next year or we pick up another the following class....so under any of these circumstances not true
Agree we need more depth which means we need at least 3 or 4 scholarship QBs........
Has he written anything like this about his visit to UCF? If not, then I am not sure things are looking very good for him to be coming here.
He’s said plenty of nice things about UCF. Now we wait for his USC visit to complete and for him to decide.
He didn’t write that piece either. Blame UCF reporters for not interviewing him and writing that he enjoyed himself here.
Didn’t the Dude that looked like a 30 year old receiver have a bad day at Ohio State? Urban called him by someone else’s name and he decommitted? Bruce??
He followed slick Willie out to Oregon, now he's at Independence CC (Kansas). He'll probably be back at UCF next year.
Been very covert.......
UCF is hosting two official visitors this weekend for the Navy game: QB Dillon Gabriel and DE Cooper Dawson.
Gabriel is trying to keep the visit a secret because he is committed to Army. Please keep that information within here. No tweeting at him, etc. where people could find it. Frankly, I'd be surprised if it didn't leak out from the Hawaii side of things because it would be a very big story that McKenzie Milton's school is all in on recruiting another Mililani QB.
If all goes well, Gabriel is prepared to flip to UCF. Dillon and his mother are flying in on Thursday and will obviously be spending a lot of time with McKenzie and his mom. He is super excited to say the least. McKenzie is like a big brother to him. He loves what UCF is doing and would be ecstatic that he could potentially play with KZ for one year with the opportunity to be his successor. He also could be a January enrollee.
UCF had been prepared to take one quarterback in this class, but the interesting thing now is the sudden availability of Louisville transfer Jordan Travis. He really likes UCF and the feeling is mutual. Does UCF take both QBs, knowing the expectation is that Travis wouldn't be eligible until 2020? Personally, I think you need to from a numbers standpoint considering how many QBs transfer out these days.

Speaking of Dillon Gabriel, the Georgia interest is real. I heard UGA OC and QB coach James Coley flew to Hawaii last Friday (Nov. 16). I was told he arrived on the island around 12 noon (Hawaii time), met with Gabriel, watched him throw and was back on the jet by 4 p.m. in order to return to Athens for their home game against UMass. UGA is said to still be concerned about Dillon's height, but they are definitely interested in him as a second QB in their class. Heard he could be OV'ing to UGA on Dec. 7 weekend.
It will be interesting to see if UCF aims for a commitment now because Dillon could be a January enrollee, but now there's UGA to contend with.
Dillon Gabriel decommitted from Army but said UCF's coaches still want him kept under the radar so he asked to delete a tweet made referencing him as a "UCF QB target."

Maybe UCF is keeping this under the radar because good QB prospects have moved on from us when they get any wind of us looking at other prospects?
Not saying all of this is not true but where is all of this information from your two posts coming from?
Excellent Info. I dont know what shot we really had at Purdy last year, but I think he was Heup's coveted guy. If that was the case Purdy has proven he can play as a freshman and that bodes well for Heupel as an evaluator. Hope he can reel them both in. Gabriel and Travis...
One time UCF Commit(Florida kid) last class that flipped to Nebraska is transferring after 1 Semester
The Georgia coach flew to Hawaii, was on the ground for four hours and then got back on a plane? Wow
He's decommitting from Nebraska. That would be like ending the tweet: Water, don't be wet
that's how aggressive you have to be in today's croot World, especially when you want a QB. I mentioned before that I don't fault losing the Purdy battle last cycle but I thought Heup himself should have visited him in person multiple times, not Lebby
He’s in the first page of this thread. Started the firestorm of Frost stealing our recruits
Self proclaimed best JUCO DB in the nation.....committed
