Add another name to this weekend's talent-loaded junior day in Gainesville.
6-foot-7 junior Jeremiah Johnson tells me he will be in town on Saturday. Several schools are recruiting him as a big wide receiver, but the Gators like him at tight end.
Below are some of the notable quotes he told Jacquie following his offer in January (FULL STORY)
“My first reaction was, ‘Oh my goodness, the Gators finally offered me,’” Jeremiah Johnson said about picking up the Gators offer on Saturday. “I was surprised that Florida wanted me; it was crazy at first. But I feel like I can be a big impact at Florida.”
Considering the fact that he lives in a state that’s home to one of the Gators’ biggest rivals, what makes Florida an appealing option for Johnson?
“I love the fact that they are sponsored by my favorite brand, Jordan,” Johnson said of UF. “I would love to play against Georgia to beat them in a swamp war."
Auburn, South Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri and Kentucky are some additional offers on the table.
