Recruiting report: Jon Sumrall's 'aggressive' plan is impressing in-state coaches

Billy Napier’s recruiting classes at Florida weren’t bad. In his three full cycles with the Gators, he landed just as many in-state blue-chip prospects (29) as Miami’s Mario Cristobal did and signed Florida’s first top-10 class in five years. The problem? He went 22-23.So, what’s changed on the recruiting trail since Jon Sumrall took over in late November? Not too much on the surface. The Gators’ 2027 class currently ranks sixth in the 247Sports Composite, with five of the 12 commitments coming from in-state prospects.Advertisement
