Rumors

This was believed to be the case beforehand, but the debacle earlier this week kinda doubled down on it. Florida should be James Robinson’s leader. This isn’t really a surprise, and I’m almost certain he will end up a Gator, but this is still something that isn’t 100% certain, hence more of a rumor.

Rahyme Johnson is no longer looking like a Gator. With Johnson’s failure to take a visit during the season to Gainesville, it has negatively affected his recruitment process.

Over the last few days, Johnson has received six-plus rapid UCLA Crystal Ball predictions on 247. I’m doubtful that Johnson will end up in Orange & Blue.

Checking In

Finally some good news with four-star cornerback Elijah Blades? Though he is uncommitted and has fans panicking, yes, I think so. Elijah retweeted and tweeted some fairly Gator friendly things the other night.

Twitter isn’t the end-all, be-all, but it’s the only positive light the California native has given the Gators in the recent days. Look at the tweet below.

Four-star athlete and cornerback Christopher Henderson has been turning heads at the UAAG practices. First reported by Zach Abolverdi, Henderson has been playing fantastic all week and the wideouts have been raving about him.

That’s a great sign, as the Gators made it into his final three as seen above.

Four-star wide receiver commit Daquon Green has been recruiting James Robinson hard and will continue to do so until he commits. That’s a good sign for the Gators, which could strengthen their already loaded wide receiving corps for years to come.

On the same subject of Robinson, he also was considered one of the best wideouts and stood out the most during the UAAG practices. He showed good size and ball skills, as stated by Abolverdi.
