What the h$ll? We get beat 70-33 last year and hold on to

Pretty much all our previous commits...this year we beat the best the SEC has to offer and our " commits" are dropping like flies. Crazy. Think it has to do with the power of playing in the SEC and them bein told Morris won't be here next year

my two best guesses...

1) less of a chance of getting early playing time than they thought
2) the unfair free advertising/propping up that the SEC receives from ESPN. This is definitely something the NCAA should put a stop to but won't.
***in the case of Jenkins, I think he really wanted to play at Tennessee and just got the offer. Tennessee is desperate, but unfortunately for them, I don't think they'll ever get back to the level that they were at pre-Kiffin fiasco.

Doesn't mean much for recruiting. Nah, that can't possibly be it.

playing time. Any highly regarded wide receiver prospect this year was going to hear from our competitors about our "depth" at wide receiver - 4 juniors and one senior and how tough it would be to crack the starting lineup with all those upperclassmen. Florida's top receivers were tight ends and running backs so they could sell him on starting next year.

In the case of Jenkins, as the others said, he was waiting on an offer all along from UT. In the case of Robinson, Florida is going to have a heck of a recruiting year. They beat LSU, Texas A&M, SCar and FSU. That's 4 nationally ranked teams right there. If Vandy cracks the Top 25, make it 5. All in all, you win some and you lose some. That's recruiting.

I am afraid I see it another way. got nothing to do with sec. For Jenkins it is about playing time! For Robinson, it is about Mama. For Nkemdiche, it is about securing jobs for the family. For Kamara, it is about coat tails.
