He is probably in that group of Hicks, Powell, Luc, and Dunkley who have silently committed to the Gators 4 or 5 times...
Whoever told you that Hicks and Luc are in that group are steering you wrong. UF leads for Luc, is in the thick of it for Hicks and is all over the other three.
The only way we lose Chaz is if Seantrel starts apartment hunting in Gainesville.
Not many Florida fans ever believed we have 6 silent commitments right now. I don't think Hicks is a silent at all but I do think that Luc told the staff w hat they wanted to hear. Mike Farrell, who usually has pretty darn good sources, said that Luc is a heavy lean to UF.
Plus the rumor is that Urban Meyer showed Elam a recruiting article where Tennessee offered the Eric Berry spot to Riley...which pissed Matt off.
I just want 1 of Hicks/Luc and anything else is just gravy. We recruited 2 elite LB's last year in Bostic and Jenkins so if we can get Luc and/or Hicks to combine with those 2 then WOW.
-I agree about Luc. It is down to a process of elimination. It sounds like his family just doesn't want him at Miami, FSU is having some major problems right now, and the other schools (USC/Georgia/Tennessee) are further away from home. His best relationship among all the coaches is Charlie Strong, Florida has 2 Senior Linebackers so a starting spot will be available for 2010, and we are close to home. Even if you ignore all the rumors about Luc and UF it makes sense that Florida would be the choice.
-I don't know about Hicks. I think we have an edge but that could change in a week. We will see how that plays out.
-I think Powell really, REALLY likes Florida but I am worried about USC. They are always tough to beat for an in-state prospect...especially one from Southern California. It would be a mild upset if the Trojans got him though.
-Unless Elam is completely screwing Meyer over, it is done. He and Urban talked for a few hours recently and he was reminded that 1 year ago today (literally) was when he committed to UF. They talked about their past relationship and the depth chart. Plus the rumor is that Urban Meyer showed Elam a recruiting article where Tennessee offered the Eric Berry spot to Riley...which pissed Matt off.
-I think Dunkley is darn near a lock as well. I would be stunned if he went anywhere else...but then again I was stunned when Nuke went to Knoxville last year so who knows?
