Coaching changes bring broken commitments, and Florida is no stranger to that. The Gators have seen a rash of recruiting changes in the wake of the baton passing between Jim McElwain and Dan Mullen, the most recent of which came on Monday, when Rivals100 receiver John Dunmore backed off his longtime pledge to the Gators. He announced his choice with a tweet.

Dunmore spoke to Rivals.com in the wake of his decision and outlined a few schools that have his interest. So while he names no new favorite in the process, some schools will get longer looks than others.

“I’m opening up to everyone,” Dunmore said via text. “UF, Auburn, Cincinnati, FAU, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisville, Michigan, Ole Miss, Miss State, Nebraska, Oregon, USF, Pitt, Syracuse, UCF, Tennessee, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

"I'm going to take my time and choose the best fit for me. I still love UF and they are not out of it. I just have to make sure I'm making the best decision."

Dunmore, who recently transferred to Hollywood (Fla.) Chaminade-Madonna from Delray Beach (Fla.) American Heritage, is ranked as the No. 10 wide receiver and the No. 58 overall prospect in the class of 2019.
