Prospective recruits received their offer letters over the weekend and it's safe to say the Florida Gators stole the show with the letters themselves.

You can’t spell ‘offer’ without the letter ‘f’, and Florida clearly took advantage of the situation by infusing one of its logos into the word. That’s some next-level stuff.

Of course, the letter rambles on about growing as a person and playing in the most competitive conference, but it’s unlikely that those sales pitches popped out quite like that giant, orange ‘F’, or the fact that Florida misspelled all-time great Cris Collinsworth’s name (see second Tweet below) in one of its other official letters.

But let’s give credit where credit is due. If recruits committed off of official letters alone, the Gators wouldn’t have enough scholarships to offer.
