We aren't going to be losing that many senior starters

[Tampa area Gator]

We aren't losing many players to graduation this year.

Here are the ones that have started that were sent out on Senior Day.

WR Elijhah Badger
DB Trikweze Bridges
P Jeremey Crawshaw
OL Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
WR Chimere Dike
DB DJ Douglas
DL Cam Jackson
RB Montrell Johnson Jr.
DB Jason Marshall Jr.
QB Graham Mertz
DL Desmond Watson

 

[Fun & Gun]

I saw the Badger can still come back for another year.

 

[Termigator]

Austin Barber and Jake Slaughter are Redshirt Juniors, but I expect them to turn pro. It would be awesome to see them come back and see where their experience could take this team next year with DJ and his year of experience. We could play with anyone, and I would like to see some retribution against A&M and Texas and beat UGA in Jacksonville.

 

[Panhandle UF]

Why would Barber turn pro? He isn't draftable.

His best season was two years ago.

 

[JayM]

We get Jeremi Lyons back which is huge. I think he would have been our best DL this year had he not been injured.

 

[Termigator]

Why would Barber turn pro? He isn't draftable.

His best season was two years ago.

Barber's best season was when he was playing Right Tackle, maybe we can get a left tackle in the Portal or Westphal will be ready, and Barber can move back to RT.

I thought Shemar James as a senior.

If he ain't you have to count in juniors that will go early.

James, Banks, Badger maybe Moore.

Moore has never been able to stay healthy for 4 or 5 games in a row. There's no way he is leaving for the NFL.

 

[JayM]

If we keep Banks and get Lyons back, I really like our 2025 team. Jame might come back too.

For the first time in Napier's tenure we are going to be as old or older than all of our opponents. No more 6th year senior QBs to contend with.

 

[Tampa area Gator]

Watching his leadership and play I think Jackson is underrated and will be hard to replace.

 

[G-Ville_Gator]

That's not a lot of seniors so how are we going to sign so many of these recruits?

We need to make some room.

 

[From the Swamp]

TOS chart says we have room for 5 transfers unless some more of our players leave.

Who starts for them if they go to the NFL?

Manuel at LT?
Harris move to C?

Barber has no business going to the NFL early. He hasn't been good in two years. He needs another year at UF but have him move over to right tackle and let Westphal or someone else play left tackle.

 

[UFChad14]

Yeah but you didn't count on Pyburn and George leaving us.

 

[SFFloridaFan]

Yeah but you didn't count on Pyburn and George leaving us.

George isn't leaving now. He came back. We probably paid him what he wanted.
