I think it’s safe to say SOS never liked recruiting, and certainly didn’t as he got older, nor did he care enough to not put a totally incompetent person in charge of it, son or not. I honestly feel that he didn’t have to do much even when he was younger at at Florida, and I still maintain that Florida as a state had more than enough talent for UF, FSU, and Miami in the 1990’s, partially because that parity word wasn’t relevant, UCF, and those decent non P5 schools weren’t relevant, and schools like Clemmons were rarely going in and getting a CJ Spiller, or a Sammy Watkins. The result of this Florida talent staying home is that the Big 3 were in 10 of 12 MNC games, win or lose, from 1990-2001 (SOS’ UF tenure), and UM also won it all in 1987 and 1989. We will never see that again from all the P5 schools in one state. He did hit some recruiting home runs here, JD and Lattimore obviously, but he really would’ve killed it if he were 10 years younger, and a little more hungry. He.....Jr. definitely left it too bare for a HC like Muschamp to have what he needed to sustain wins, and the ice and Eskimo thing was never really apparent. He might’ve recruited well if he won 7-9 consistently.
