Members of the Florida Gators coaching staff are continuing with their ridiculous tweets in an attempt to lure recruits to Gainesville.

Spring Shocker: 51,000 show up for Kentucky spring game
(Photo Courtesy: Mark Stoops' Twitter) As recently as six months ago, had you asked most Kentucky fans how they planned to spend Saturday April 13, 2013, most would’ve likely responded by saying that if anything, they’d spend the early evening watching the Jordan Brand All-American high school basketball game.
