Juwuan Brown, OLB, Jefferson HS, Tampa

Man, if Taggart can coach as well as he has been recruiting these will be some exciting years!

He may very well be a great pick up and I'm pleased with all of the solid commits this early in the year (far more than we have ever had), but the recruiting sites don't seem to favor Brown. I'm taking the number of early commits as a sign that Taggart is confident in the talent (as opposed to holding out to see who might work out by the end of the season) and not concerned with how they might stack up against other recruits more favored by the recruiting sites.

 

The hidden value is the Tampa connection. He is getting these kids together as friends. That will impact high rated recruits down the road who will buy into doing something special with their friends and being hometown stars. I agree with other posters though, don't value the stars. Taggart has been wise to surround himself with good teachers. They will teach these guys how to play good football.

I think it's an unfair critism to say that he hasn't been ranked well from the pay sites. They currently have him listed as follows:

 

ESPN:3 Star Rating - 74 rating - #78 OLB in the country

Scout: 3 Star Rating - #102 best OLB in the country

247: 82 rating - #87th best OLB in the country, #171 in State

Rivals: 2 Star Rating - 5.4 score

 

It's really just Rivals that has him underrated here and I think I read that Singer expects him to get a bump up once he is further evaluated this fall.

Louisville recruits FL at a crazy rate. It's important to beat Louisville when we're going after these guys, and that's what we did here. Offers from Kentucky, Louisville, Illinois and indiana aren't too bad.

The state of Kentucky has to pull from Florida...not much in the way of high caliber high school talent up there. UK and the 'ville have been hitting Florida hard.

Beating them on the field will truly turn the tide.  We snagged a big DT from them last year, so we are using the leverage we have.
