Early 2009 SEC East Projections

With a lot of turnover at Georgia (mostly the loss of Stafford) and new coaches at Tennessee, how do you see the SEC East playing out?

I just don't know how to rank them after Florida.

Florida
South Carolina
Georgia
Tennessee
Kentucky
Vandy

Depending on their receuiting class, I'm apt to put Kentucky ahead of Tennessee; heck, I'd even put Vandy ahead of them as well should they be returning a number of starters.

Florida definitely #1 based on the fact that we're returning Tim Tebow and the majority of our starters, followed by Georgia. South Carolina's QB situation is unstable, and they lost a couple of key players on their D to early NFL entry which is why I'd put them in the #3 slot.

If Tennessee fans are expecting a miracle from Lane Kiffin right off the bat, they're delusional. Ain't gonna happen. When there are new offensive and defensive schemes coming in with a new coach there's usually a longer transition period - Michigan right now is proof of that - and Tenneseee isn't in that great of shape right now with their player depth. UF had talent on hand when Meyer took over in 2005; it was a matter of coaching these kids up and adapting the schemes to their skillset which worked. Until the Vols can "recruit up", I don't see them as contenders for another few years.
