Yes we need to recruit nationally. But **** it’s nice to have the talent we have in our own backyard.

Well said.

Some folks seem to have it in for Florida (in general) and SoFla (specifically) prospects for whatever reasons. Oh well

Just imagine this team with JSmith at WR and Mendoza at QB.

Unbeaten and No. 1 seed going into the CFP?

Fitzgerald treats a football in the air as something that the DB and WR are both trying to catch. That is not what 99% of DB’s do. They feel like they are defending the player. Bryce just waits for the ball to be thrown and he acts like the WR. As though the pass was thrown to Bryce.

Its hard to believe that Bryce was such a controversial recruit with so many negative takes on CIS. Hindsight is 20/20. If he showed any desire to tackle in HS would've been a 5*

CIS was extremely divided. But there was a reason all the coaches at all the schools wanted him, he’s a playmaker. He’s going to be a star. He’s made the biggest play of the season with under 30 seconds to play. True freshman. He should never leave the field. Find some plays for him on offense as well. We saw his high school highlights.

Bryce needs more opportunities with the ball. He needs to return kicks or do something else, either on offense or special teams. He can’t be limited to playing DB.

Go back and watch the first INT. So many safeties are putting a knee on the ground to make the INT easier. Bryce bends down, keeps his knees up and picks up another 30-40 yards. Playmaker

Dare I say it, he's got a Ed Reed like nose for the ball. Not saying he's Ed Reed, but he's got that "it" factor that you simply can't teach. You either have it or you don't.

Definitely, but Ed Reed was getting beat early in his career. He was beat over the top against Penn State. But by the middle of his sophmore season, we all saw what he was becoming. Bryce is a true freshman making all these plays. Now Ed got better every season from hard work on and off the field. Whether Bryce does that remains to be seen. But I would argue he is one year ahead of Reed as to when the talent became obvious and impactful; Reed the sophomore, Bryce the freshman.

I'll start making HOF comparisons when I see him lay the wood. Poyser and Thomas may not get as many interceptions, but they have been money in both pass and run support. Fitz needs more work. But man is he a special athlete with crazy crazy upside.
