The Seminoles landed the pledge of Travis Hunter back in March and his commitment is one of the most significant ones of the Mike Norvell Era thus far. Extracting an in-demand prospect from Georgia is no easy task for a coach that is yet to debut at his new school. It only becomes more impressive when you consider that said prospect holds offers from schools such as Georgia and Alabama.

The class’ top ranked corner, Domani Jackson, has called Michigan his “dream school.” So while the Wolverines have work left to do to beat out schools such as USC, Ohio State and Clemson, they figure to be in the mix until the end. Jim Harbaugh and company also have an in with No. 4 cornerback Will Johnson, whose father played for the program. Things seem to set up pretty well for Michigan at corner in 2022.

Florida is the leader to land the five-star prospect, but it’s impossible to predict what Singletary may do because interest in his services seems to be wide-ranging. Georgia is a threat to UF here, as is LSU to an extent. A commitment could come soon, and the sooner it arrives the better for the front-running Gators. Dan Mullen would like to have this wrapped up in the month ahead.
