What if he was a borderline 2-star recruit with no BCS offers. Would you have demanded that USF extend a scholarship offer out of loyalty? I don't understand how he could have been disloyal to a school that he's never committed to or attended... it's not like he led us on thinking we were at the top of his list. He's been nothing but honest the entire time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn't believe USF is a school worth his own sons talent. How is he ever supposed to recruit 4 and 5 star players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that USF is in his top3 but he did not want to Lebron us. My guess is that he will end up at UF. Sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn't believe USF is a school worth his own sons talent. How is he ever supposed to recruit 4 and 5 star players? Can you point me to the quote where he said that? Look... his first obligation is to his son... I'm sure he believes USF is worth his sons talent just as his son also believes that. But he has to let his son make his own decisions.... and support him even if it's not USF. It's not like VH3 or his father strung anyone along.

I'm thinking UF too... just like we saw with Bivins, family attending can be a big influence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be great if we get him but we will all still live to see another day if we don't land him. And even if we do land him, theres no guarantee that he actually becomes a great player. +1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had kind of been in the back of my mind too. Florida Football Recruiting: Gators Top Vernon Hargreaves III's List, Josh McNeil Commits To Alabama by Andy Hutchins on Jul 21, 2012 11:23 AM EDT in Florida Football Recruiting Florida's still very much in the game for five-star cornerback Vernon Hargreaves III. On Friday, Hargreaves named a top five — and Florida topped it. Josh Newberg of 247Sports says that the schools are in order, putting the Gators as the leader for Hargreaves. He quotes Hargreaves: "Number one is Florida, two is Clemson, three is Vanderbilt, four is Miami and five is Notre Dame." That's the Tampa Bay Times snagging what I'll guess is behind the 247Sports paywall here, but it backs up the idea that Florida may well be the leader among the big-name teams Hargreaves is considering. The problem is that Florida's probably not the "real" leader, nor the eventual winner of the Hargreaves race, because his father remains on staff at USF and it's expected that he'll stay in Tampa if his dad does. Hargreaves really is the best cornerback in the country, maybe better than any corner from the 2012 class, and so he'll be a priority for Florida going forward. Josh McNeil was also thought to be a priority for the Gators, but, uh, no more. Josh McNeil @BIBTY_12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants his father to watch him play football his only option would be USF. We will see how that plays into this. I won't fault him or Mr. Hargreaves at all if he goes elsewhere.
