Ray Ray chances?

He announces at 6:30 tomorrow. Ray Ray, come'on down man. You could be a huge part of something special.
This offense can get your talent showcased for that next level!

I will give us 10% just because he could have a change of heart and you never really know. But all indications are Florida. He may open it back up if UF really struggles early this year.

Other than closer to home, why Florida?

It just doesn't make sense. He'll never be heard from again with that pathetic offense.

Yes. The recent news links have stated that time.

All the tea leaves point in another direction. He may choose Clemson, but I wouldn't bet more than a couple of bucks on it.

The Deon Effect
Jul 27, 2014, 11:39 PM
|
|
Ray Ray to UF is pretty much set
My concern really is the effect this will have on Deon
UF staff PLUS Ray Ray in Deon's ear will be very tough
UF Rivals site strongly feels they will sway Deon to Gainsville before NSD
UF having a poor season may change things, etc
But the same goes for Clemson, who potentially could have a 4 loss season as well
The BIGGER story tomorrow will be Deon's reaction to Ray Ray if he indeed commits to UF.

The clues they think they have in his statements make them believe Fla. I believe Dabo and Tony Elliot have worked hard on Ray Ray and I give us a squared chance here.

McCloud to pick a college Monday
By Zach Abolverdi
Correspondent
Published: Sunday, July 27, 2014 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, July 28, 2014 at 12:08 a.m.
It's decision time for Ray-Ray McCloud III.
The four-star running back from Tampa Sickles announces his college choice today at 6:30 p.m. on Bright House Sports Network.
The Under Armour All-American is a consensus top-200 prospect and ranked 26th nationally by Rivals. His finalists are Clemson, Florida, Maryland and UCLA, all schools he visited in June.
The Gators got one last crack at McCloud when he attended their annual Friday Night Lights showcase, where the coaches talked to him about what his role would be with the team.
“Just in the spread, being a playmaker and just utilizing me in a lot of different ways — in the backfield, in the slot, out wide and special teams,” McCloud said.
The 5-foot-9, 176-pounder also talked with a couple of UF players from his area during the event.
“I'm real close to Dante Fowler and Vernon Hargreaves,” he said. “They were just talking to me, telling me to make my own decision, don't let anybody make it for me.”
McCloud made three trips to Gainesville in the spring. Did Friday's visit help Florida in any way?
“A little bit,” he said. “Not too much, because I kind of knew everything and talked to coach (Will) Muschamp a lot anyway.
“But I did see that the team is closer than I thought. They're family-oriented.”
McCloud said his own family will factor into his decision. UF is the only in-state school he's considering, and playing close to him would be ideal for his parents.
“I have a big family, so it has a factor,” he said. “But at the end day, it's a business decision for the next three, four or five years. My parents know that.”
UCLA has reportedly emerged as the biggest threat to Florida for McCloud because of his relationship with Bruins coach Jim Mora.
“It's actually real tight,” he said. “I talk to him at least once a week, him and coach (Noel) Mazzone.”
Although McCloud is ready to make a decision, he won't end his recruiting process entirely after committing.
“I'm not going to shut everything out, because things happen,” he said. “You don't want to be lost. Coaches can go to different places. You still have relationships with coaches from other schools, so if things like that happen, you want to have, not a Plan B, but a safe side.”
As for Monday's announcement, McCloud's deciding factors are simple.
“Just my heart, my gut feeling and just my comfort level in the offense,” he said.

i know people mention cain as being close, but ray-ray already has fowler & hargreaves from the tampa bay area on campus at uf.
and hats off to mora at ucla, he's building something it seems.

What I take from that is hearing how he wanted to see how they stacked up against Clemson's atmosphere in the close-knit aspect.
Still think we are right there for this kid.

What I read in this article is that he's committing to Florida, and will keep other options open, in case they have a bad season and lose some coaches.

I haven't a clue, but my gut says Florida. Just hope we don't lose Hines as well.
