First we popped open a CryoTropic Hazy IPA By Tampa Bay Brewing Company. Highly recommended, if you are in Tampa hit up the Ybor or Westchase locations. I gave it a 4 on untapped, 10/10 would drink again. Tomorrow I will be trying Space Donkey a hazy pale ale.
We also looked at the possibility of going 1 for 3 on the palmetto high teammates. Collier, Marshall and Taylor. Taylor commits tomorrow and Collier on the 10th. Myself along with everyone else believes Taylor is headed to Miami, while Marshall is between Miami and Bama, Collier seems to be leaning Florida. This was on the case a few months ago. Florida was leading for all 3.
We talked about Alabama having 5 of the top 11 recruits in the state of Florida, while Florida has landed just 7 top 15 recruits from the state since 2018. We touched on Burke and Desmond Watson being underrated, while that may be the case it does not soften the blow of losing out to Miami on big time recruits like Taylor.
I also mentioned that Miami was 13-13 the last 2 years while Florida is 22-5. Florida needs to do a little more than win on the field.
We also touched briefly about the big spenders in college football recruiting, Georgia Bama and Tennessee holding down the top 3 and the current and previous rankings reflect that.
