Florida wide receivers coach Joker Phillips is apparently just figuring out the wonders of Photoshop and he’s using his newfound skills as a way to entice recruits.
Monday morning, Phillips tweeted out a picture of himself on a makeshift poster with a fake Florida Gators jet in the background. The poster read: “Joker Phillips Elite Air Force. Wanted: Future Gator Greats.”
Yep, it’s as awesome as it sounds.
Calling on EVERYONE to join #GatorNation We want future Gator Greats not future Gator Bait #ComePlayWRForTheJoker twitter.com/jokerphillips/…

Last week, Phillips, who was the head coach at Kentucky last year, tweeted out a photo of The Joker from the newest batman series and hashtaged it #ComePlayWRForTheJoker. It was one of the creepier things on the Internet last week.
Now, I’m not sure exactly how many players Phillips, who is also the team’s recruiting coordinator, has lured to Florida in the past couple weeks, but his artistic approach to recruiting is definitely worth talking about.
