CONFIRNED: Florida finally land top target.

After landing an offer from the Florida Gators this past August, Madison (MS) County three-star tight end Micah Jones has continued to make his way over to Gainesville to visit. This year alone Jones has made it to UF’s campus twice, with his most recent visit taking place this past month. Jones has long mentioned Florida being in the conversation of getting an official visit this coming summer, and a date has now been set.

Florida is the lone official visit set so far for Jones, and will take place the weekend of May 31-June 2.

Through past visits Jones has gotten to see just about all there is to see in Gainesville. However, he did get a bit of a different perspective on his visit last month, as he was able to shadow current freshman running back Kahnen Daniels. This let him get a real life experience for not only how life is for a player, but how life is for a player who has only been enrolled for a few months.

Gators welcoming more prospects to campus as spring football continues

With the Florida Gators holding their latest spring practice on Tuesday, they will welcome some more targets between the class of 2025 and 2026. It’s already been a busy spring, as prospects have made their way to Gainesville in droves over the course of the last few weeks. The group on Tuesday is on the smaller side, but they are some important names that Florida’s coaching staff is high on. Swamp247 takes a look at the names expected in.

Florida welcomed Lake Mary (Fla.) 2026 quarterback Noah Grubbs to town on Monday, but he will also be back again on Tuesday. With Florida having a lighter day on Monday, it allowed Grubbs a chance to spend some good quality time with the coaching staff. He’s been in touch with offensive analyst Ryan O’Hara so far, who is heavily involved with the quarterback position, and quarterback recruiting for the Gators. This trip will mark Grubbs second time at UF this year, after visiting for a Junior Day in January. It was on that trip where the Gators pulled the trigger with an offer. So far, it’s been a busy stretch of trips for Grubbs, as he’s made stops to MiamiOhio StateMichigan, and Notre Dame. He’s also got trips to Alabama and North Carolina coming up in the future. The 2026 class in the state of Florida is going to be an interesting storyline, as there are a ton of talented arms that cycle. Grubbs is one of those names, and has already emerged as a National recruit before his Sophomore year has ended.

Despite making an early commitment to Ohio State this past fall, the Florida Gators coaching staff continued to actively press for Cocoa (Fla.) three-star wide receiver Jayvan Boggs. That commitment came to an end this past week. Boggs has still had a few schools still in touch with him, and he visited Georgia this past weekend after landing an offer from them earlier in the year. Florida extended an offer last summer after he worked out in front of the staff. Wide receivers coach Billy Gonzales has been pressing heavily for Boggs since the summer. Gonzales only picked up his effort, and even head coach Billy Napier became more involved in making contact following Boggs picking Ohio State. With him now back on the market, Florida continues to recruit him harder than ever. He does not have an official visit on the books yet with the Gators, but that could be a talking point on Tuesday. His official visit schedule is starting to come into picture, with trips to UCF (May 31), Georgia (June 14), and Missouri (June 21) already set. Notre Dame is another player in his recruitment.
