    UF's 2021-2023 gymnasts:

    College Gym News

    This site has Shilese Jones as a 21 UF commitment, but everything else I've seen says 22. LSU likely still has hopes with the delay since she could have come in 21.

    2021:

    Leanne Wong - 5 stars
    Morgan Hurd - 5 stars
    Riley McCusker - 5 stars
    Sloane Blakely - 4 stars
    Brianna Edwards - Unranked

    *2022:

    JaFree Scott - 5 stars
    Sophia Butler - 5 stars
    Kayla DiCello - 5 stars
    Shilese Jones - 5 stars

    *Olivia Greaves - 5 stars (Switched her commitment to Auburn)

    2023:

    Skye Blakely - 4 stars (Sloane Blakely's sister)
    Skylar Draser - 3 stars

    Presuming Morgan Hurd comes in January, UF will have gotten in everyone that was committed for 2021.

    BTW World All-Around 3rd place finisher Kayla DiCello is committed to the Gators as well. Perhaps Jenny gets over the hump in short order. It certainly won't be for any recruiting deficiencies. Dan take note.

    FIFY.

    In a YouTube interview after the Worlds, Wong said she is at and is returning to UF. DiCello said she would be entering college next year. At 17, DiCello could have said she was sticking with the US National Team as that is what the question was about. She saluted the US National Team future, but she won't be apart of it after this season.

    Morgan Hurd won the 2018 World Championship. Feel sure she will be enrolling in January after the US Women's Gymnastics tour is over.

    See post #8 above. UF has 2 committed for 2023. It covers recruiting for 21-23.

    There is also a good link to the one and only women's gymnastics recruiting site. It does have one thing wrong for UF though. The site has Shilese Jones to UF in 21, but everything I've read says 22. She is out on the US Women's Gymnastics tour at this time. In the UF potential lineup video, Hurd is in it, but Jones isn't.

    Anya Pilgrim is listed as a 2023 uncommitted 4 star recruit:

    Gymnast Details – College Gym News

    Skye Blakely is rated at 76 and Anya Pilgrim is rated at 71.

    Is the above twitter post an acknowledgement of her commitment to UF?
