Per 247 composite state of Florida has 61 four star or higher players. The state of Tennessee has 11. Only 3 of the top 20 players in Florida are currently committed to the gators. However, 10 of their 12 highest rated coommits are from the state of Florida. Anybody can recruit to Florida, do not even have to leave the state for top five class.
No wonder why we have sucked this whole decadeStarting "all decade" team (2010-2019), Can exclude OL if ya want...

I think once Pruitt has his program established we’ll be able to go toe to toe with Florida. But for anyone to pretend like Mullen isn’t an excellent coach given his history at State and what he’s doing now at UF is laughable.Florida always has good players and they always will no matter who’s the coach. It was just silly for people to think a guy that brought in a ton of nfl players to miss state wouldn’t be able to get good players to Florida.
Doesn’t mean we can’t beat them at all.
Dooley had a top 10 class early. Butch had a top 10 class in 2014 right after going 5-7. CJP had a top 10 last year after going 5-7.Georgia and Florida can get top 10 classes while having mediocre seasons. Tennessee can get top 10 classes almost only when we are winning lots of games.
Geography matters more than people realize
How do you know that Mullen isn’t a championship coach? Because he didn’t win the SEC in the toughest division in CFB while he was at Mississippi State? Keep in mind Mississippi State is the worst program by a good bit historically speaking in that division.I know Mullin isn’t a championship coach. I don’t know about Pruitt. Give me the guy who still gives me hope.
I do find that a little sad. It was closer before these 2 came along. Wouldn't trade Pruitt for Butch, but I'd gladly bring sharkhumper back. Mullen has been taking us to the woodshed so far after 4 straight games that were close.Mullen 2
Pruitt 0
And it hasn’t even been close.
