All this said, I don't think Muschamp is in a "get rid of dead weight" mode at all.
This is just something that happens because of attitudes of the transferees. They don't feel the love because they're not contributing and they get rid of themselves. With the coaches out recruiting this week, I hope we'll add to the 17 we already have. Hopefully they're talking to some offensive linemen! And, maybe another big running back?

Steve McKibben is correct, both had fallen out of favor for one reason or another, get rid of them now and load up in recruiting. As Steve mentioned we can sign well over 25 if we get them to enroll in January, so far I think 7 have indicated they will. If I was a recruit and committed to UF, I would try to get in January, just look at the roster, you can come right in and start or get plenty of playing time, so get in school ASAP, especially if you are a OL or DL..the door is wide open come on in.

I'm not (that) Stephen, but if I may... Shaw started one game early this year, but had fallen to third on the depth chart behind Josh Evans and Pop Saunders. Trail never played a down, and was unlikely to, in large part because he, even after being warned, refused to take his academics seriously. We can sign 25 this year plus up to 13 additional that we could count back to last year (provided they enroll in January) so there is "room at the inn". Steve Mc _____ Stephen, You probably have a better idea of the behind the scenes of the departures than I do, but were the departures of Shaw and Trail really Muschamp getting rid of dead weight? Didn't Shaw play almost every game, and even start some? I thought his departure was to be closer to ailing family in California, and that he is someone we really could have used back next year. Trail could have left of his own volition for more (i.e. any) playing time. Was it suggested to him that he leave? We've got enough room to sign and scholly the max 25 recruits, so why push more out the door, unless they have really, really bad attitudes? Thnx for any additional info you may have.
