New Story Atlanta Rivals Camp Series: JaReylan McCoy Quotes + My Take

Rocking the Ole Miss Pullover. Had a chance to spend time with him prior to kids checking in. He is getting the full force of the UF staff with Napier being the man recruiting coach for him. He said really the only two schools that are using the entire staff to recruit him are Florida and Texas.


One-on-One with Defensive End JaReylan McCoy:

"I am coming out here today to show what I can do," He wanted to prove he was worthy of adding that fifth and final start by his name.

On the Recruiting Process from the Gators:

They can put me anywhere on the line. They can put me inside or outside, and they can put me anywhere up front. (Weighed in at 6-foot-7, 260 pounds). "I see myself on the end as an edge rusher."

My Take:
He is scheduled to announce after his official visits, which should put the public decision in the first week of July. The only two teams recruiting him full force with the entire weight of the coaching staff are Florida and Texas. I like where the Gators sit right now, and unless something significant happens, Billy Napier and the Gators will land a big-time player from Mississippi.

Baseball No. 23 Florida Rolls No. 18 Alabama for Sixth-Straight Series Win

The Gators take the nation's No. 12 RPI and No. 3 SOS into Tuesday vs. South Carolina at the SEC Tournament.


GAINESVILLE, Fla. –
No. 23 Florida led from start to finish in the regular-season finale against No. 18 Alabama to deliver a 9-3 victory as well as a series win at Condron Family Ballpark on Saturday evening.

With the win, the Gators (37-19, 15-15 SEC) finish the regular season riding a six-series winning streak – twice as long as any other team in the SEC. The Senior Day victory over the Crimson Tide (40-15, 16-14 SEC) gives the Orange & Blue wins in 17 of their final 22 regular-season games including 14 of 18 in SEC play heading into the SEC Tournament. No. 10-seed Florida faces No. 15-seed South Carolina in the first round on Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. ET.

As the lone UF position players honored on Senior Day, Bobby Boser (2-for-4) and Ty Evans (2-for-5) both drilled home runs and notched multiple hits. Boser paced the squad with three RBI, which helped propel freshman phenom Aidan Kingto his sixth win of the season.

King staked his final claim for SEC Freshman of the Year, baffling the Tide across 6 1/3 frames with one earned run allowed and eight strikeouts on 94 pitches. Earning his second-consecutive victory, the Jacksonville, Fla. native has given up just two earned runs over 20 2/3 innings in his last four starts.

King retired the side in order in the first, opening the door for the Gators to jump out to an early, 2-0 lead in the home half. Boser promptly led off with a home run to right-center field and Brody Donay connected for a solo shot to right-center with two outs to provide the early fireworks.

Florida ran into trouble in the top of the second, as Richie Bonomolo Jr. reached on an infield single and scored all the way from first on a throwing error at second base on a potential double-play ball. King buckled down, striking out three batters in the frame to strand a pair and keeping a one-run lead intact.

Despite a leadoff single and another UF defensive miscue in the third, King stranded a runner in scoring position to hold the tally. Florida responded via a leadoff homer in bottom-three, as another senior left the yard in Evans with a shot to center field to extend the UF advantage to 3-1.

King induced a pair of ground balls highlighted by an inning-ending double play for a scoreless top half of the fourth. The Gators struck for the second-consecutive inning in the bottom half, as Ashton Wilson singled, swiped second and scored on an RBI single to left-center by Landon Stripling

In the top of the fifth, King fanned the leadoff man but Brennen Norton subsequently reached on a fielding error at shortstop. A Bryce Fowler double followed to plate an unearned run, but King induced a fielder's choice and flyout to left to strand the bases loaded.

Hanging on to a 4-2 edge, Florida answered in a major way with a five-spot in bottom-five. With no outs and two in scoring position, Hayden Yost drove in Donay with a groundout to first base. Blake Cyr then scampered home on a throwing error at third base with the bags juiced while Boser produced the big blow with a two-run single to right. The Gators manufactured the fifth and final run on a double steal, as Boser swiped second and Blake Brookins took home for a commanding, 9-2 lead.

King fired a one-two-three sixth, picking up his eighth strikeout in the process. The freshman returned to the hill for the seventh, exiting with one out and a man on second, having gived up a leadoff double to Norton. Reliever Luke McNeillie retired the next two batters while allowing the inherited runner to score on a sacrifice fly to take a 9-3 ballgame into the seventh-inning stretch.

McNeillie blanked the Tide in the top of the eighth and closed it out with another zero in the ninth to cement Florida's sixth-straight series win. McNeillie threw 2 2/3 scoreless, no-hit innings of relief with one walk and one strikeout.

King (6-2) picked up yet another victory in a standout rookie campaign, as he was charged with just one earned run in 6 1/3 stellar innings. He concluded with three runs allowed on six hits, two walks and eight strikeouts.

Crimson Tide starting pitcher Zane Adams sunk to 7-3 with the loss, surrendering four earned runs on six hits and two walks in 3 1/3 innings. The southpaw struck out three.

FROM HEAD COACH KEVIN O'SULLIVAN
On King's final regular-season start…

"Often times, you see someone makes an error and then it's a four-pitch walk and the inning kind of gets away from you, but he just kept it together and truly remarkable honestly, to keep his composure like that. He's shown time and time again that he's beyond his years with his maturity and focus and all those types of things, so that's two great starts in a row against two ranked teams, obviously. So really, really, really happy for him."

On taking this group into the postseason…
"Well, we obviously need to get Justin (Nadeau) back and it's really day-to-day with him, with his finger, and hopefully we get Colby (Shelton) back for the Regional and that's kind of what we're shooting for. It's just been a lot of disruption, we got guys moving around, but they hung in there. I told the team at the end; you probably need to take some time to reflect back on what just happened. Just to be 1-11 and end up at 15 wins in the league, no one's ever done that since the league expanded, since '92, but obviously our job is not finished. At least we put ourselves in at least discussion to host, but we'll see what happens. But can't say enough about this group and their resiliency."

On Boser and Evans' impact on the Gators as seniors…
"They're both really similar in the sense that they're both really, really tough competitors. I mean, they play hard and they very rarely ever make mistakes, or at least mental mistakes. They've been a big part of where we're at, let's just put it that way. Senior Day is always a little bittersweet, you want to see them get recognized, and rightfully so, but it's like there's a part of you that gets bummed, right? Because it goes so fast. We recruit these players as juniors or sophomores in high school and it goes by, just like that. Hopefully, we can have another opportunity to play at home here. I'm not quite sure what we need to do, but hopefully this isn't the last time they play at the ballpark."

On what Coppola and Barlow have meant to the program…
"Once again, I love those guys, too. I mean there's so many stories within this whole thing, with Billy being at Clemson last year and we had a chance to see him pitch in the Supers and I know he's really, really enjoyed his time here. And Pierce, we could talk about that all day long. Coming back from all the injuries that he's had and goes 3 2/3 yesterday, strikes out 10, doesn't walk anybody. Got him up to 67 pitches or so. So, for this to end the way it's ending, and we have a bona fide starter going into the postseason, and we get five innings out of him, I think that totally changes the whole thing for us, pitching-wise anyways."

The 10th-seeded Gators will face No. 15-seed South Carolina in the first round of the SEC Baseball Tournament on Tuesday, May 20 at 5:30 p.m. on SEC Network.

New Story Gators Complete Round Two of National Championships

Florida is tied for 15th and holds the final spot into tomorrow's 54-hole cut.

CARLSBAD, Calif. -
The Florida women's golf team completed day two of the NCAA National Championships at Omni La Costa on Saturday. Through 36-holes the Gators are tied for 15th.

In round two at Omni La Costa, the No. 17-seed Gators featured an afternoon tee time, which featured windy conditions of gust 16 mph-plus and firmer greens than the morning wave that Florida had in the opening round.

UF recorded a second round of 301 (+13) and finished tied with UCLA at 15th, but owns the tiebreaker (cumulative total of non-counting scores) therefore Florida earned the final morning tee time tomorrow starting at 8:20 a.m. PT/11:20 a.m. ET

Following 54-holes, the top-15 teams and nine individuals on a non-advancing team on Sunday earn a spot play in the final round of stroke play on Monday where the NCAA Individual Champion will be crowned after 72-holes. The top-8 teams after 72-holes will advance to match play which features the quarterfinals and semifinals conducted on Tuesday, followed by the finals on Wednesday. All four final days can be watched live on Golf Channel.

Addison Klonowski had the low round in the lineup with a 71 (+1) and she is 4-over across two rounds of play. She had a birdie-birdie stretch on holes five and six followed by a birdie on nine to make the turn 1-under. A shot back of the redshirt-freshman is Ines Archer in T67 as the sophomore shot a second round of 76 (+4) as she leads the lineup with seven total birdies.

Making the turn 3-over, Paula Francisco finished strong with an even-par back nine backed by a birdie on the par 17th (385 yards) for a 75 (+3). She is 2-over overall and tied for 33rd with Jessica Guiser, who didn't record her first bogey until her 26th hole of the week. She had a 75 (+5) in her second set of 18-holes.

The non-counting score came from Elaine Widjaja at 77 (+5) this afternoon.
