Rumors

The Florida Gators are once again trending upwards for a set of talented offensive lineman. As previously mentioned, Florida has set a date with four-star offensive lineman T.J. Moore. This will be his last visit.

Florida is trending upwards rapidly for four-star offensive Kai Leon-Herbert. Herbert is currently pledged to Michigan, but has still been in contact with the Gators .

I’m not sure so sure Isaiah Wilson committing to Georgia instead of Michigan will have any impact on whether Herbert stays a Wolverine, though. What I do know is that Leon-Herbert has great size and solid hands, which could aid his cause to see immediate reps in Gainesville.

In other news, the Gators are closing in on four-star athlete Tray Bishop.

Last week in my recruitment board notes, I stated that I wasn’t very confident in landing the talented Georgia native. I still am not, but his recent decommittment from Auburn gives me more belief.

It appears to be a two-way race between Georgia and Florida, but the Bulldogs have been spectacular on the trail this year and I expect that to continue.

Isaiah Wilson’s commitment could push out four-star Tony Gray. Gray is a native of Georgia and currently plays for a loaded high school: Grayson. Gray is a surefire lock to UGA according to the 247Sports Crystal Ball, but it appears that the Gators maybe have a shot at landing him.

I doubt the odds are in favor of Florida, but still something to keep an eye out for.
