Florida Gators Recruiting Visitor List vs. LSU Tigers

At least 39 recruits will make their way to The Swamp for Florida Gators vs. LSU Tigers.

Florida is set to host at least 39 recruits from the classes of 2023, 2024 and 2025 this weekend when the Gators take on the LSU Tigers at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium on Saturday.

Among those prospects will be four official visitors, made possible in part due to Florida's upcoming bye week which will allow the coaching staff to delegate more time to its recruiting efforts than normal on a game day weekend.

You can find each of the visitors All Gators has confirmed below.

This list will be updated as additional recruits are confirmed as visitors.

Commits (13)

WR Aidan Mizell, Boone (Fla.) – No. 9 WR, No. 65 overall on SI99

DL Kelby Collins, Gardendale (Ala.) – consensus top 100 prospect

CB Dijon Johnson, Wharton (Fla.) – consensus top 100 prospect

DB Jordan Castell, West Orange (Fla.) – consensus four-star

CB Sharif Denson, Bartram Trail (Fla.) – consensus four-star

DL Kamran James, Olympia (Fla.) – consensus four-star

LB Jaden Robinson, Columbia (Fla.) – consensus four-star

DL TJ Searcy, Upson-Lee (Ga.) – consensus four-star 

QB Marcus Stokes, Nease (Fla.) – consensus four-star (official Visit)

OL Knijeah Harris, IMG Academy (Fla.) -consensus three-star

WR Tyree Patterson, Eustis (Fla.) – consensus three-star

DB Bryce Thornton, Milton (Ga.) – consensus three-star (official Visit)

WR Creed Whittemore, Buchholz (Fla.) – consensus three-star

2023 Prospects (7)

IDL James Smith, Carver (Ala.) – No. 1 IDL, No. 20 overall on SI99 (official Visit)

LB Qua Russaw, Carver (Ala.) – No. 1 LB, No. 22 overall on SI99 (official Visit)

DL Jordan Hall, Westside (Fla.) – consensus four-star   

WR Jaren Hamilton, Buchholz (Fla.) – consensus four-star

Hamilton does possess an offer from the Gators; however, that offer was extended by the previous coaching staff. He’s yet to be re-offered by Billy Napier but is someone that has been on campus a number of times and remained in constant contact with the current staff since they took over. This recruitment is one to monitor as we could see an offer extended if someone decides to leave the WR class or if Florida doesn’t hit on their numbers at another position. 

DL Xzavier McLeod, Camden (SC.) – consensus four-star 

Currently committed to South Carolina, McLeod confirmed his visit with All Gators on Thursday prior to publicly acknowledging the trip. This will certainly be a recruitment to watch moving forward with UF now firmly involved.

WR Brian Green Jr, Orange Park (Fla.) – PWO offer

OT Barrett Maddox, Clinton (Tenn.) – no offer

CB Desmond Ricks, IMG Academy (Fla.) – consensus five-star
