After a dry spell that saw UF only sign a total of three Jacksonville prospects in a five-cycle period, over the last three cycles business is starting to pick back up for the Gators on the First Coast.

This is what Florida has done recruiting ‘right up the road.’

(I didn’t include players like CeCe Jefferson out of Baker Co or the Daytona kids)

Knowing how many great football players come from the Jacksonville area, this is just pathetic. There are usually 4-5 difference makers on both sides of the ball that could build a solid, championship caliber team. Too many other schools sliding into Florida and snatching away talented players. I think CBN and staff realize this and that’s why their making the state their footprint.
