'20 FL WR Malachi Wideman (Tennessee signee)

We targeted 40-50 high priority prospects knowing full well it wasn’t possible (or legal) to land them. The 7 were the most realistic possibilities and consistent with what’s been posted on this board and paysites. Thanks for ALLOWING us to be happy! Sumbuddy’s trying to con their way into Heaven. 😎
You’re happiness has nothing to do with me allowing it that’s all on you.
I’m “allowing “ the very liberal criteria of counting 7 for 7 cruiting wins .
We’re all happy with who we got!
We can be 7 for 7 every year if we pick and choose who we count and who we don’t count, 😂!
 
Re: JG / other QBs, I think you gotta start this season with a clean slate. JG was absurdly bad for most of last year but also surprisingly good in micro bursts, just enough to not be written off entirely going into the offseason. It can't be overlooked this will be his first season with the same OC he had the year before. To me, that alone is enough to give him the opportunity to see what happens. Now, if HB comes in and sets the world on fire, put him in and don't look back. But seeing what JG can do with some consistency is what has me curious.

I expect Malachi Wideman to sign with FSU football. Tennessee is a dumpster fire in both basketball and football. Oregon is clear across the country and it’s rare for Florida kids to go that far. Ole Miss has a new head coach that doesn’t have the best reputation and their basketball team is terrible. Wideman has had the longest relationship with wide receiver coach Ron Dugans and FSU basketball coach Leonard Hamilton. I think he stays committed and signs with FSU.

FSU football signed 17 of its 18 commits during the early signing period in December. Four-star wide receiver Malachi Wideman was the lone exception and now we know why. The two-star (sic) athlete stayed ‘committed’ to the Noles while choosing to visit the likes of Washington State, Oregon, Ole Miss and Tennessee.

There was some hope he might stick with the Noles as he and his family kept things close to the vest. Ultimately he chose to sign with Tennessee where both football and basketball programs are fairly terrible. The reasoning doesn’t make much sense other than maybe he figured he would get more playing time at Tennessee in terms of basketball? He was only rated a three-star basketball recruit and was mostly known for his incredible in-game dunks. Whether or not he could be a impact player at somewhere like FSU remained to be seen.

...However, if you’re going to lose a player, wide receiver is a position most young players are not going to be impact players at for a while it at all. The bust rate is extremely high, and the fact Wideman was going attempt to play two sports in college means the probability of him not becoming an impact player is even higher.

The butthurt is real.

Also, what exactly has FSU football done since Jimbo? And basketball? Solid, but not better than our past two b-ball teams.

It's close. Leonard Hamilton does a good job there. However, that guy is dead wrong when he says Wideman would have a better chance at playing time at Tennessee... if he is talking about next season, that is ridiculous.

There are many more answers than your question. If Kevin Mayes and that offensive line remains somewhat healthy, JG could grow more, Brian Mauer could develop, or H Bailey learns enough, and the defense is quite stingy. It's just great to see, this thing grow!!

I don’t follow recruiting closely but just watched the tape.

This kid is special. Good job to Tee and Will Friend for getting him. An instant above average SEC player.

I cannot wait to see the QB battle this year

Doubt Kevin Mays, minus a pinkie finger, will play much next year. Hopefully Cade and Cooper Mays will though.
