It has been a really good last few days for Dan Mullen and the Florida football staff. The hits just kept rolling on Monday.

Florida football just keeps rolling along to have one of the best recruiting classes in 2020.

On Monday, the Gators picked up another solid, 4-star athlete when Fenley Graham officially committed to Florida.

The 5-foot-9, 171-pound Lakeland, Florida native tweeted his commitment Monday afternoon and told 247Sports the Gators “talked to him about why they like the athlete.”

"“They like my playmaking skills and what I can do with the ball,” Graham said earlier this spring. “I want to play corner and special teams in college.”"

For his senior season, it is expected he will play as a defensive back. He is the second defensive back to commit to the Gators for 2020. Avery Helm was the first commit for the Gators at that position.

Rivals ranked Graham as the No. 38 position player and No. 70 overall recruit in the state of Florida.

During his junior season, Graham had 174 yards rushing and three touchdowns on 17 carries coupled with three catches for 56 yards and a touchdown.

On defense, Graham added 31 tackles, one interception and four pass deflections at Lakeland High School.

Graham also had 874 yards and two touchdowns on 26 returns on special teams. That included a 99-yard kickoff return.

Here’s a look at some of his highlights from the 2018 Rivals Camp Series:

He received offers from Indiana, Iowa State, Kentucky, Miami, Nebraska, North Carolina and West Virginia, among others.

The latest signing caps a strong weekend in recruiting for Florida football.

Four-star linebacker Derek Wingo announced Saturday that he was changed his commitment for 2020 from Penn State to Florida.

Connecticut native and four-star defensive tackle Lamar Goods, committed to the Gators on Friday. Jacksonville, Florida three-star defensive back Tre’Vez Johnson announced his commitment to Florida earlier this weekend.

Graham is the 17th overall commitment for the Gators from the class of 2020 and the 12th from the state of Florida.
