Tony Mitchell the #14 ranked player and #2 CB in the 2023 class will be visiting UF in March. Mitchell a one time Tennessee commit has narrowed his list to 6 schools. told On3's that he really like Napier and the new staff. Mitchell will be visiting Alabama on March 5th, Auburn on March 19th, will be visiting Georgia and UF sometimes in March.
It has been reported that Manning's top schools list are Georgia, Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, LSU and UF. With Georgia being the favorite and UF the longest shot.
According to reports the Gators have offered to the following QBs: Manning, Alabama's Christopher Vizzina, Louisiana's Eli Holstein (who is a Texas A&M commit) Michigan's Dante Moore, Georgia's Malachi Singleton and Fla's (Nease) Marcus Stokes.
Based on the clips I've seen, I like Moore, Vizzina and Manning in that order. I might move Manning to the top merely because of the players who will follow him wherever he goes.
Gators has offered to Miami's Gulliver CB Daniel Harris. The 6-2 160 Harris is the #337 and #33CB in the 2023 class, already has offers from Georgia, Ohio St, Miami. Michigan, Texas A&M, Kentucky and West Virginia besides UF.
According to reports the state of Florida has 64 very good to elite players for the 2023 class which makes them the most of any state. Gators staff remains in consistent contact with Melbourne's CB Robert Stafford. Stafford is a impressive athlete that holds over 30 scholarship offers including Ohio St, Texas A&M and Oregon.

I would expect us to sign no less than 14-15 kids from Florida this recruiting cycle. Looking at a top 5-7 class if we do this.
Not recruiting related but Billy Napier will be at the SEC Media Days July 20th, that day will also be Sam Pittman and Kirby not Smart.
The Gators offered 4* Safety Eugene Wilson the 23th athlete in the 2023 class Wednesday. Wilson who grew up as a Gator fan will be visiting UF on March 1th has two dozen offers including Georgia and Alabama who will be hosting him this month. Also visiting UF on March 1TH will be Georgia's Safety Jalon Kilgore. Kilgore has offer from South Carolina, Kentucky and Georgia Tech. Another Georgia's product who will be visiting Gator land in the first week of March (March 5Th) is 6-1 175 Safety Javion Clark.
Georgia's blue chip DE Zavion Hardy has the Gators in his top 8. in that list its also has Jackson St for the 6-5 262 for the #94 and #15 DL for the 2023 class. Another defense player from Georgia who will be visiting UF its edge rusher AJ Hoffler, ranked as the #260 and #38 DL in the 2023 class. At this time its believed that Ohio St its his leader.
The March 19th weekend is a big one, but yes the March 5TH one is bigger one, by the way a couple of names coming in the March 5th one is 4* WR Bryson Rodgers from Zephyrhills and 4* edge rusher Issah Nixon from Saint Pete.
Very excited to see that Aidan Mizell is visiting. Somebody on these boards posted info on him several weeks ago. Caught 47 passes for 1003 yards and 18 TDs last season. His clips are mind-blowing. He had zero stars at the time of that post. Aidan finished 5th in the state in the 400 meters. His mom was an All American sprinter at UF, qualified twice for the NCAA 400 meter finals.
So how do we look for him and how does he look to us? Hoping we get WRs with decent length. Mizell is the tallest of the four WRs on that list at 6'2".
