The good news keeps rolling in for Jon Sumrall’s and Phil Trautwein’s Florida Gators recruitment. Just one day after landing three-star defensive lineman De’Voun Kendrick and four-star interior offensive lineman Peyton Miller, another four-star prospect has listed Florida in his Top-six. Running Back Trey Martin from Winnsboro, Louisiana on Monday released his top six schools and it’s a battle of the SEC, including the Gators.

Along with the Gators, Martin has Ole Miss, LSU, Alabama, Tennessee, and Ohio State in his eyes, so for the Gators this would be an SEC steal if they can do what it takes to land him. Right now, Tennessee has the least amount of running backs (five), but Florida and Alabama have the second least (six).
