Diwun Black flips to Florida

Went to the Florida 247 and you would think each and every poster had just won the Mega Millions. Made me chuckle.

I laughed as well. It's like they have zero clue that the kid has no chance of qualifying and is just mocking the recruiting system.

He ain't going to IMG, but, on another note, if Florida is able to use the IMG scholarships as bait to sign with them, that sounds like a massive hole in recruiting rules.

I don't think this is the case because IMG players usually sign every where, but just imagine if Ole Miss was getting prospective recruits into Jackson Prep for free and Prep had some "special system" that helped kids get qualified. Just seems like a massive recruiting violation that I'm sure the NCAA has a way of not allowing.

I don't see how anyone could pull that off without it being really obvious. I mean, let's say 20 of your 25 recruits came from Prep in a class and let's say 19 of them started out at totally different schools and in some cases different states. Nothing to see here.**

It's also pretty risky because if you get let's say 4-5 recruits at one place and things go sideways with one you risk your entire class falling apart if the group is close knit.
