Only 20? I think Ironside's got him beat...

Porter was not recruited to be a QB, by USF or UF. UF offered less than a week ago and the kid jumped ship.

This has 0 effect on our QB situation. The kid is delusional if he thinks he'll start at UF faster than he would at USF, but good luck to him. It's not a USF story, it's a UF story now.

Agreed. I remember Myer doing the same thing for another recruit a while back.

Read my initial post ( recruited as an ATHLETE)

 

 

Don't think he wasn't talking to you ... I'm sure he was addressing the UCF troll who made the first reply to the thread.

First off, there's an entire thread on this in the Prospects and Recruits section of the forum.

 

Secondly, why try to make like Flowers isn't coming here? If you know anything about recruitment you'd know that he just said he's 100% committed to the bulls after his OV. Also said he's probably going to cancel his UF visit.

 

Our class is one of the best we've had recently and 40th in the nation, and it's coming off a 2-10 season.

 

Porter was being recruited as either a DB or a WR, not a QB.

 

and we know it says ATHLETE. Read ANY interview about what he'd be playing for us and they all say CB or WR

Then why are your first two lines about USF needing QB's.  Whether Porter is here or not, our QB situation is the same.

I wonder if another "Tampa" kid had anything to do with his decision?

 

Mr. Paul R. Wharton knows what you did last summer....

Flowers is projected to be an athlete more than Porter is that's why UF's new OC started ignoring Flowers once they got Porter to flip from USF. Both of them are more likely to never be impact QBs in a non-spread offense so right now it looks like you don't have a true traditional QB in this class.

I think most rational people would trust a D-1 coach's assessment of his abilities than a random, run-of-the-mill UCF fan.

    “This is not a broken football program by any means. It just needs to be united, to get everybody on the same page, share that same vision, and really to have that standard - best is the standard.”

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
