What Florida currently has (minus the signed Class of 2025 players who have yet to enroll) is what they will have for spring practice.

With that being said, here is the updated Class Breakdown Chart.

A couple of things:

* I have UF at one over the 85 man limit - assuming all the enrollees make it in. However, there will certainly be post spring transfers - in and out.
* Only six players remain on scholarship who predate Billy Napier.
* What class will Kofi Asare and Brien Taylor Jr. be listed in? According to his bio on the Umass site, Asare has never redshirted. With this latest NCAA ruling, does Taylor Jr.'s two JUCO seasons count toward his eligibility?
* The same can be asked of Ja'Kobi Jackson.
* Also, with the way they are handing out waivers nowadays, though Jamari Lyons had already redshirted once, does his entire 2024 season being wiped away pave the way for him to get an extra year?
* He was awarded a scholarship before, but is receiver Taylor Spierto still on scholarship?

I'm surprised we are still this young in year 4 with Napier. 44% freshman seems like a high number. 2x more freshman than sophomores, juniors or seniors.

We have some really good experienced pieces like Banks, Lyons and Barber but I guess I thought we were finally getting older than the teams we play.

Only five players remain from the 21 signees of the Class of 2022.

Seven players are already gone from the Class of 2023 - including four of the top 10 as ranked by the On3 Consensus.

So I guess the only way to get or stay "old" these days is to transfer in juniors and seniors. If you replace transfers with freshmen you will always be on the younger, less developed and less experienced end of the spectrum.
