Jackson is the latest player secured in a long list of recruits for Florida, following four-star offensive lineman Fletcher Westphal from Leesburg, Virginia.
Looking Forward
Currently, the Gator football recruiting team boasts an impressive 2024 class. However, they continue to add to their roster with each coming day as new recruits choose dates to decide their official commitment to a college to play for. Currently, Alderman has his eyes set on three Florida natives who show potential to be future Gators. Cornerback Teddy Foster from Sarasota, safety Ashton Hampton out of Tallahassee and DeAntre Robinson from Orlando are all three-star defensive standouts. Here’s Alderman with the scoop on each recruit individually.

With the recruiting season still active as ever, Florida still has ample time to pick up commitments. However, the draft class that has been secured so far shows more than enough promise. Fans should walk away from this offseason excited for the future.
