Florida gaining traction with a former Auburn commit

Safety play was a bit of a sore spot during the Billy Napier Era. Florida safeties often felt far too passive, and it felt like the Gators needed someone more dynamic to fill the position.

As Jon Sumrall and crew fill up their official visitor list for this summer, they just landed a visit from a former Auburn commit who checks a ton of boxes that have been missing in Gainesville over the past few seasons.
