I'm all for adding as much talent as you can for the Gators, but why would this kid go there? Gators just signed the 2 top safety prospects last year (Will Hill will see considerable playing time for the next 3 years at the very least) and have more already on the roster that are young and talented (Major Wright, Dorian Munroe)...

Jaggedice,

Because it's Florida. And he might not be afraid of competition. Only thing that might hurt Florida is that they were late to the party.

Florida is going to be safety deep. Didn't they already bring in Hill and Finley who are the top two at their position? Along with Major Wright?

Hopefully he goes to Michigan, we could also use depth in the secondary. Donovan Warren is a star but Morgan Trent can run fast and thats about it. It would also help other players from the south think about coming up north to play for the big blue

At 6'2.5" teams very well oould have the intentions of turning him into an outside linebacker. They of course would add 30 or 40 pounds to him.

He ain't gonna be a LB if he weighs 185. He's gotta put more meat on those bones. I would know b/c I'm those dimensions, and I couldn't play LB in D-I b/c I'm too skinny.
