GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- The Florida Gators, fresh off a 10-4 season and 12th-ranked finish in the Recruiting Nation class rankings, are set to open spring practices on March 9. Head coach Jim McElwain discusses the latest with Florida recruiting.
ESPN: Last year, you mentioned recruiting is a three-year process as far as building relationships. You’re now starting Year 2, how far in to that process do you feel you are?
Jim McElwain: I think we are definitely making up ground. We struck on some pretty good guys that first year, especially for how late we got a jump on it.
