David Dawson Parts Ways

This is not catastrophic because of how strong our OL is the next two classes, but it still stings.
I think the coaches probably call up some of these guys like Pocic and see if there is interest, but it is unlikely they flip.
I think we simply take the best available and move on.

Kid played the Michigan coaches like a fiddle, why are people wishing the best for him? Now were in a tough spot because we have been telling people were full at o line. Have fun riding the bench at Florida David.

Disagree completely.

I disagree to. I think Dawson was honest, but he, like a teenager, changed his mind.
Wish him the best and move on.

People are wishing the best for him because there are things in life more important than recruiting. I have no idea why he made the decision but he did what's best for him and no one can blame him. Get over it dude this is part of college football recruiting.

He won't be riding the bench. Dawson is a stud who could start for ANY school in the country - even Alabama. I do think he is that good.
This sucks.

He has been tweeting with Florida commits for a while now.

I disagree that he's that good. I'd put Bosch, Fox, and Kugler over him as interior linemen.

I wonder about his ability to put more size one, he has pretty narrow shoulders

Lets not fool ourselves that Dawson is not one of the top 20 OL in the country. But so are every one of our OL recruits.
I wish Dawson the best. We will be fine. I have been saying for a long time we will have a couple decommits..again, just surprised it was THIS commit, that is all.

Duck i would appreciate it if you wouldn't allow people to call recruits names like that.
Thanks.

Kids probably never been to Florida so it does look great. Not sure why Florida would bother coming here for talent with all the talent they have near by but whatever.

<------ This girl is cute AF.

You could easily make the arguement that your staff has brought in better OL recruits than UF the last two years. Not sure why he'd ride the bench. Frankly, there's better talent on your OL.

hardly in a tough spot, have 4 other linemen who are as good or better and months til signing day. Not a great situation but the future OL will survive

If there's a positive side to look at, it's that the coaches have proven they can do more with less, so any "downgrade", at least in terms of rankings, will play to his full potential.

I get the impression that if UF had struggled this season (like last season), then Dawson does not go on this visit.
But it seems that UF's meteoric rise in year 2 under Muschamp sparked his interest once again.
