The Florida Gators might be in for a major recruiting win as they host four-star quarterback Trammell Jones, who just decommitted from Florida State. Jones had previously been FSU’s longest-committed recruit for 2025, but his recent change could work to Florida’s advantage, as recruiting predictions now favor the Gators to land him. Ranked 36th nationally, Jones is also considered the No. 10 player in Florida and the No. 4 quarterback in his class by Rivals, marking him as a potential game-changer for the Gators’ recruiting lineup, currently ranked 43rd.
Big Names Head to Gainesville for a Game-Changing Visit
Jones isn’t the only highly rated recruit scheduled to attend Florida’s game against LSU. Ohio State cornerback commit Na’eem Offord, Texas wide receiver commit Jaime Ffrench, and LSU cornerback DJ Pickett are all expected to join him at The Swamp this Saturday. Pickett’s visit is especially intriguing, given that he’s currently pledged to the team Florida will be playing, LSU, adding a unique layer to the high-stakes recruiting weekend.
Napier’s Stability Shifts Gators’ Recruiting Prospects
The certainty around Coach Billy Napier’s future has positively impacted Florida’s recruiting momentum. Earlier concerns over his position had slowed down recruit interest, dropping Florida from last season’s No. 7 national ranking to their current No. 43 spot. With Napier now confirmed to stay, recruits are viewing Florida as a more stable option, creating the potential for a strong close to the recruiting season.
Florida’s 2025 Class on the Verge of Redemption?
Securing commitments from Jones and other key recruits could help Florida make significant strides in rebuilding its 2025 recruiting class. Although returning to a top SEC rank is ambitious, this weekend could mark the start of Florida’s resurgence if Jones and others decide to join the Gators.
