Just because Billy Napier and Florida football got a late start with the 2022 recruiting class, doesn’t mean he’s given up on making a gigantic splash.
Napier has been chasing the biggest unsigned recruit left all month long. Harold Perkins – 5-star linebacker- visited with the Florida football program back on January 14th. This peeked a lot of fans’ interest, but Perkins was still committed to signing with Texas A&M.
Gator fans got their signal to go wild this past Monday when Perkins posted this on Twitter.

Game on. He’s officially up for grabs, and Napier is making a massive last-minute effort to land this game-changing linebacker. Today a huge part of his coaching staff visited Perkins in his home state of Texas.
Appreciate @PToney, @CoachBateman, @CoachMPeterson, @UF_CoachRaymond and @GatorsFB for coming by to check on the Tigers today!#RecruitCypressPark #SLR #RiseUp

At this point, it’s still unclear if Billy Napier is also meeting with Perkins, but sending almost everyone that really matters on this staff is a huge move. With six days left until signing day, it is important to be constantly remind recruits of what you have to offer. Especially since Harold is going on a last-minute visit to rival LSU this weekend.
Perkins is expected to make a decision between Florida, LSU, and Texas A&M next week.
