Also, we are on the brink of an all-time defensive class.

Yeah, I think Wafle recently released a top 3 that didn't include Fla. There are some others on there that aren't going Gata either, imo.

May 26May 26 Real question is who would want to play in Gainesville? The place is a shit hole. If I’m a Florida kid and not leaving the state, Tallahassee and Miami are 1000 times nicer. I get going to play for Urban or Spurrier but Billy does not have that draw

May 26May 26 My favorite comment in the Gator write up was that they have an international player on the OL, so the other programs would have a hard time matching that for Sone…not knowing we have an international player on the DL (Kanu) that will probably host him. He seems really dialed in. Edited May 26May 26 by IDIOTsavant
May 26May 26 Zaden Krempin has his own lawn care business, shows he has gumption. Plus, he can help when we changeover to grass.

That's a wild take. While geography may not move the needle like a big ole bag of money, the school's location is definitely included in the calculus for most of these kids. It's also helpful to the program when kids enjoy the area enough to stay put during the summer months prior to Fall Camp. The continuity built during pass shell and summer S&C can be the difference in a championship season. The city of Austin is a feather in the cap of Texas recruiting.Â

Championship caliber programs have their players stay on campus because that the expectation and culture of the program that is built to compete at the elite level. Austin is nice so hopefully our players stick around in the offseason is the kind of unserious approach to football that defined Texas during our 2010’s dark age. Now obviously in the era of NIL having access to Austin’s corporate NIL is an absolute super power to turbo charge the football program.Â
