All of that is true but you can’t blame Urban if no official offer was ever extended and according to the official services they didn’t and I couldn’t find where he was. All schools actively recruit many more players than they could ever take, in fact many SIGN many more players than allowed (see Ole Miss)! I see that Tennessee is actively recruiting about a hundred players, can you imagine if half of those guys decided to “commit” tomorrow! Of course, they would have to pick and choose the ones they want and tell the others “see ya”. With all that said , I think Pernell has an excellant chance of being Gainesville bound IF that is really what he wants to do.

Call it what it is…. Urban Myer caught with his pants down. They offered the kid but didn’t want him to committ because they want to see if they can lure someone with more stars. Happens everywhere. Exactly why Florida or any other school shouldn’t get their panties in a wad over a kid (Reid, Richardson) changing his mind later in the process. I know everyone will say that’s why kids shouldn’t committ early but if Williams was a 5 star would you have a problem with him committing now? Neither would Urban Myer.

Well, the fact that they’re coming up to see him indicates to me that he’ll end up there. Maybe they just want to re-affirm his decision or maybe they want to take a look at him at another position (WR?) because they have alot of depth and alot of 2010 commitments from top DBs. Gators are in need of WRs in this class, no doubt.

Weird situation…IMO I think Florida is being cautious after getting burned by another player from Georgia they had been on for a long time and had cultured a relationship with, Greg Reid. If you’ll recall, during the Under Armour All American game prep week, Reid, who was a long time Fla commit, started to garner alot of attention and got wandering eyes, which led to his “de-commitment” and subsequent NSD signing with FSU. Florida had been on the kid from jump street when no one else cared and I think the coaches were disturbed that once he got all that national attention and suddenly wanted to “shop around”. Hey it happens in recruiting but it’s not cool and it affects your entire board. And then throw in the Richardson thing with Kiffin, whom Kiffin convinced the kid to continue to lie to not only the Florida coaching staff, but to his entire hometown of Pahokee, Fla, about his intentions. Glad That guy didn’t come!!! I just think the coaches are just saying, let’s make sure… Hope it all works out and Pernell ends up in orange and blue!

I don’t care if he has a valid offer or not…if he’s got the grades and the talent and the right attitude and he LOVES the Gators…And he’s not another Greg Reid or Noo-key Richardson, I say let’s Love him back!!!

I hope the offer is valid, we could really use his talent, especially at WR. Sign him up! Or at least say “Welcome to the Family” I like this kid, he’s gonna be a good player, good size and good speed. Any grade issues???
