Florida currently sits on a knife’s edge quality-wise. From here, they could easily tip in the direction of getting markedly better or markedly worse.
How They Get Better
Sometimes recruits don’t qualify for school after signing, or they leave the program they sign with before even making it to their first preseason practice. I used the 247 Sports class calculator to remove such players for the last three UF transitional classes plus 2019. They look like this:
- 2011: 16 players, ranked 17th
- 2015: 19 players, ranked 24th
- 2018: 18 players, ranked 17th
- 2019: 19 players, ranked 16th
I didn’t adjust the other teams nationally in each year’s rankings, but the above ranks probably aren’t too far off.
