Was told for a second time in less than a day that Jadan Baugh has not told Florida anything concrete on his plans following the meeting with Gators HC Jon Sumrall, OC and multiple family members of Sumrall. There were other UF coaches there too. Florida side feels like the meeting went well, but doesn’t know his decision - if he has one. OTF was also told Baugh does now have an advisor or agent working with him and his family. So now we wait to see if Baugh will play one more season at Florida before declaring for the 2027 NFL Draft, or enter the portal.

Was headed to TCU last week prior to SMU hiring him. Happy for Riley! Great dude, and he needs to get his shot at a P4 IMO

Merry Christmas to all!

And also, how quickly ND's roster could fall apart in ways should Freeman go to the NFL. There are a lot of players that would be coveted by major programs.

Was going through teams to see who had the most portal needs @Kevin C... when I got to ND... they will very likely have the most returning starters on both sides of the ball vs. any other serious contender. Was definitely noteworthy

lol Portal will be so big for Texas, Oregon, Miami, Texas A&M and 3-4 others ND may well have the most roster continuity returning among the top ranked teams, should Marcus Freeman stay.

Here is the reason ND is a maybe headed into next year ... Notre Dame is absolutely loaded with scheduled returnees on defense ... 11 of the top 13 leading tacklers are likely to return, to start. That doesn't include EDGE Bryce Young, starting CB Christian Gray, backup EDGE Joshua Burnham , etc... If Drayk Bowen returns, top 5 LB's are all likely back. Multiple NFL draft picks 5 of top 6 DB's likely to return, including Leonard Moore and Shuler. S Tae Johnson. Multiple NFL draft picks in that group. EDGE's Boubacar Traore, Bryce Young, Burnham all solid, with Traore a budding star and Young a high-NFL upside guy Note: Eight likely returning starters from last game of the season, and majority of backups. And on O ... QB CJ Carr a year under his belt, and very good. Future NFL Draft pick. Four of five OL starters (at various points, as ND had some injuries) are likely back. In fact, they could get 8 of top 9 in program back if none portal. Majority of WR's return. Lose a tremendous RB in Love, and a NFL caliber backup for sure ... and solid TE. Note: Seven likely returning starters from last game of the season, and majority of backups. Coming in ... top 5 recruiting class ... very talented class on D and at RB IMO and ND would add from portal

We shall see who Jabbar Juluke goes to see in January ... that will be the key for 2027 RB recruiting Texas has been recruiting the kid you mentioned. Juluke wasn't recruiting him hard at Florida.

2027 RB Gary Walker (6-0, 200) started picking up P4's

Hes 100% correct about where things are at in "college athletics". People should hear college GM's in FB and BB talk about the actual where this is at. The agents are the issue. Bringing in agents to HS recruiting and now in control of "college athletics" is horrifically bad for "college athletics". Any time agents have the most control, the sports are worse for it.
