It's no secret that people, especially college football recruits, have differing opinions about rival schools. One of the most storied and heated rivalries — Florida-Florida State — is no exception to this. Well, the folks at Rivals.com just did something quite interesting — they talked anonymously to four recruits within the state of Florida and asked them to compare Florida, Florida State and Miami. Anything from facilities, co-eds and where they are as programs in general were addressed. We'll focus on the responses regarding FSU and Florida for now.

Below are some of the most interesting tidbits:
Three out of four recruits thought that Florida had the best recruiters on staff, referencing defensive backs coach Kerry Dixon, offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier and co-defensive coordinator Randy Shannon. Two recruits also said UF staff is most "phony" of the three.
As far as Florida State is concerned, Rivals asked what the biggest drawback to FSU was.
"Worst thing about it is probably the environment and the town. The good thing is that it's a winning program." One recruit said. Another mentioned the girls on campus in Tallahassee.
"The best thing is definitely the girls. It's just a straight college town, and I like it. Tallahassee is crazy and all about football. The education isn't as good there, though." Recruit "C" said.
"Best thing is winning championships. The worst thing would probably be ... well, I can't really name anything bad right now. I need to get to know it more." Recruit D said.
The same question — biggest pro and con — was presented to the group about Florida.
"With Florida, I'm really going off the media mostly," Recruit A said, "but it seems like it's easy to get caught up or kicked out of school there. It seems like you could get in trouble messing with females there. The great thing is the tradition and that program. That is a place with great history."
"I like the girls at Florida. I would say that FSU has the best girls, but Florida has good girls and the best tradition. The Swamp is really cool. The worst thing is that everything is so old. All the facilities look really old. The campus is nice and all, but it's getting dated." -Recruit C
