What could Cormani bring to Florida football? Pretty much everything you would ever want in a cornerback on the boundary. In his two seasons in college, he has racked up a whopping 19, yes you heard that right, 19 interceptions. Aside from the numbers though, he is a very quick corner who gets off the line extremely well (due to his initial position as a receiver). He has a great build at 6’1.5″ 165 pounds and an absolutely astounding motor that drives him through every play nonstop. Overall, there is a reason he is ranked so highly by many different HS scouts, and his game proves it.
