Florida Friday Night Lights 2009... Who's Camping?
Friday Night Lights at UF will be on the 24th this year; and, as usual, some of the best prospects from the 2010 and 2011 classes will be in attendance.

There's speculation that Dunkley is already a silent, and will make it public that weekend. Those are definitely the top 3 in my book, too. Getting Luc would be especially huge.

I think there's a pretty good chance we land all three. I feel really good about Mack now that UGA has added another RB to their class. Luc is supposedly a Gator lean from what I've heard too.

We can take Ronald Powell off the maybe list, too. He camped at UF last month, and just confirmed he'll be at FNL, too. Florida Gators Football: GatorBait.net -- Florida Football . If we can steal a 5* DE out of Cali, that would be so big, both for this class and future classes.

Lots of great athletes at the camp right now. I've been getting some texts from somebody at the event. Rivals said there were supposed to be 160 athletes, including over 35 prospects who are ranked as 4-stars or higher by the Rivals.com network. 20 members of the Rivals100 are scheduled to be on hand, and 13 others are included in the Rivals250. And for the first time in FNL history, an amazing seven 5-star prospects are scheduled to attend the event.

The number is actually closer to 200 athletes at the event. The players just left the field to go watch some NC game highlights, and the guy at the event said he just saw Luc and Ronald Powell, and they're both beasts... said they look like they could play in the NFL right now.

And how is Justin McCkay a 4*? He's #1 OLB according to some and #3 overall.

Elam is at the event, and looks great. McCay is a 4* because there are very rarely 5* WR's each year. He's about as high a 4* as you can be before getting a 5th star. He grades as a 6.0... 6.1 is 5* status.

First impressions look like we could end up with James Louis making his commitment public, Justin McCay, Markeith Ambles, Dunkley, and Dominique Easley either at the event or shortly thereafter. I'd love to get Powell in there, too; but I think he and Luc are in too much demand to actually commit tonight.

The event is huge, the Gators putting on a great show, and the new boards are even up and working... they've been showing season highlights on them all night; and the new sound system is said to be other-worldly.

Luc just crushed Corvin Lamb on a play, Lamb stayed down for awhile, but eventually got up and limped off. Right after the demolition, Luc did the Gator Chomp, and Powell jumped on his back and did The Chomp too.

Mack Brown has been getting a lot of attention; and he just went back to the locker room with Emmitt Smith, John Brantley, and Trey Burton.

The final tally of athletes was about 225; and it's confirmed that Meyer has accepted commitments from RB Mack Brown (#6 nationally) and DE/DT Dominique Easley (#13 nationally). WR Chris Dunkley (#9 nationally) is likely a silent. All of them blew up the camp, and were easily some of the best at their respective positions on the night.

On a side note:

Tavadis Glenn was booted from Friday Night Lights for throwing up the "U" during a moment of celebration following a victory in one-on-ones. He was thought all along to be a cane, but surprisingly showed up at FNL. Glenn was observed several times throwing up the "U" sign and was asked to stop. Not only did Glenn not stop...but he became even more "boisterous" with his "representin". He was escorted off field.

One of my friends was in attendance and said Glenn was being a total dick. He said there were a couple of cane fans in attendance and they were booing and shouting profanities when Glenn was being escorted off the field. Typical scUM player and fans.

After learning the details, scUM coach Randy Shannon made the following public statement: "This will help us more than you know."

In player interviews, they asked Gideon Ajagbe what his experience at the camp was like; and he said it's entirely different from the last camp he attended at FSU. He said where they expect like 80 top athletes at FSU's camp, there are like 400 of the best in the country trying to get into FNL, and there were over 200 last night... he said everything about UF's camp was superior to the other camps he'd been to.
