LOCAL REACTION
"The Gators have already filled several needs in their third-ranked 2021 recruiting class, especially at tight end and quarterback, but are trending for a flurry of uncommitted targets as well. Defensive line targets Bryce Langston, Taylor and Desmond Watson are considered Florida leans at this time, while WR Marcus Burke is one to monitor as well.” – Corey Bender, GatorsTerritory.com
NATIONAL REACTION
"Florida has put an emphasis on recruiting an absolutely loaded Miami Palmetto High School team. The Gators already have a commitment from wide receiver Brashard Smith and are attempting to add teammates Corey Collier (DB), Jason Marshall (DB) and Taylor (DL), all of whom are ranked four stars or higher. The situation is one to monitor, as Florida may well land two out of three.” – Rob Cassidy, Southeast recruiting analyst
