No. I also don't think all of them were even verbally offered by Florida.

Scout.com: Rotell Jenkins Profile

This WR/CB kid from '08 claimed offers from Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, North Carolina and Virginia. He's a two-star recruit, ranked the #153 WR in the country. Did he actually have those offers? Probably not. You know as well as I do that kids sometimes lie about the amount of offers that they have.

According to Tom Beaver at GBW, Michigan has offered 107 prospects. 84 is child's play!
