Torrey Davis...the 5* DT out of Seffner Armwood just committed to Urban Meyer and the Gators. Davis was long thought to be a f$u lean...however, he cancelled his f$u visit last weekend and said he would commit following his HS team's first game...following the game, Davis told reporters that he was 100% Gator!!!!!!
GO GATORS!!!!!!!!

UNBELIEVEABLE! Just got back from the gym and read the updates. Mark was on the cell when TD announced....to screaming and applause from his teammates and family when he said he was signing with the "University of Florida." The Noles are in meltdown mode already, lol.
This could be another verbal catalyst for a top 1 or 2 class, like Hornsby and Tebow were last year. I know it's only been a year and a "half," but these guys are supercrack recruiters....maybe the best in the conference.

No doubt...last season, we were in desperate need of WR....Meyer and Co. go out and sign the Nations #1 WR class....now, we need DL and DB...Meyer and Co. are well on their way to signing the #1 DL class in the nation...and we're in for most of the top rated DBs as well...you got it right, these guys can hold there on vs any recruiters in the nation.

I'm hearing that we have little to worry about with Corley...he committed early because he loved Gainesville and nothing has changed. His father said that he will take a couple of visits, but it would take something "huge" for him to change his committment. I think Bama is the only worry we should have with Corley...he's really gettin' pressured to stay in-state.
Davis, Corley, and Howard...that's huge...and an insider friend of mine seems to think by season's end, McCrary will be back around...either way, this class will be stocked full of the Nations best DL. :thumbs:

Yeah, I think landing Davis will help with Corley and the others. Like Harvin, it will probably close our board to any more DL, but if we land our current top offer list, we'll have the position locked up at #1.

i have heard that the corleys didnt want uf to take any more d-linemen....i think this was b/f mccray's saga(which i am personally sick of and hope he winds up somewhere other than uf) so their stance may of changed.

Yeah, I heard that too....I guess I remembered DEs, not DL. But it could be all DL, I don't remember.
Either way, bama can have Corley if we get Davis. I'll take that trade....but I think we get McCray regardless.

Congratulations! While it may not be good news for the rest of us in the SEC, it is even worse news for the CrimiNoles! Way to geaux, Gators!

Well according to Tony Morell of GameCockCentral.com McCray has narrowed his list and Florida isnt among his top five.
Here is his exact quote
Florida State, Illinois, South Carolina, Ole Miss, Southern Cal. This is also his current order.

I did some research, and that was his visit list. He's already been to Gainesville (FNL, etc.), but you're right....we've cooled on DM. Apparently Meyer got tired of whatever games he was playing, and we went in a different (i.e., Davis) direction.
Long time until NSD, though....he may want to be a part of a top DL class with Davis when it's all said and done. Who knows.

Do a little more research Spur...you'll see that McCrary's list changes according to who he's talkin' to. I don't know what game he is playing, but it appears he's "milkin" this for all it's worth. Like GN stated, I have also heard that Meyer and Co. have decided to give him a little "room"...they'll get back on him towards the years end...he will be a NSD committment so, we've got plenty of time. And I agree with caps, if we sign our current board....Lemmons, Davis, Howard, Corley, Martin....we may not have room for McCrary.

Don't forget Ian Williams. . . :whistle:
I'm not as high on Martin as others are, and feel we have better/equal options in-state(Claude Davis/Antoine Carter/Adewale Ojomo). Lemmens is impressive, but the distance factor concerns me.
Torrey has been #1 on my list since I saw the SCG against Nease. He is a phenomenal athlete/player and has Top 10 pick written all over him. This is a HUGE pickup, we just have to hope he qualifies.
For those who haven't seen him, per SunshinePreps

Heard some interesting news on DLO...heard he was f$u all the way....f$u loves to play this game with UF...they get players that are silents to them, have them commit to UF, causing other players to "shy" away and causing UF to "shy" away from recruiting a particular player at that position...then, at the last minute...usually on NSD, they switch....happened last year with Robinson....the year before with A. Smith....the year before with Cromartie...
Coach Meyer and staff became a little suspicious and called him out on it...during FNL....sounds about right when you consider he went sour on us then....sounds like a conspiracy theory to say the least...and I didn't get this from my insider friend, but it does make sense.

personally, i dont know the kid but from what i've read, everything about him is a little fishy. he gives 5 different people 5 different stories and seems to change him mind daily.
get corley, davis, williams, etc on campus and good luck to mr mccrary.

I'm with you...this guy was a regular on the GC premium board until FNL...afterwhich, he started wavering...f$u is a very dirty program...they pay "moles" to police our premium boards for recruiting info...as I'm sure they do with Miami and maybe even some of the other acc teams. It wouldn't shock me to find out that McCrary was part of this.
I really could care less...with the committment of Davis, Corley staying...Duke Lemmons, and Ian Williams....UF will be stocked for years to come. Let him have his fun...I'm just happy Meyer called him out and hopefully, pulled his offer if all of this is true.
