From another site…was this common knowledge and I just missed it???
“The biggest recruiting news of the weekend has nothing to do with a visitor or even a prospect in this signing class.
The biggest recruiting news centers around part of the Sunday visit being dedicated to the visitors taking a tour of what is being called the Gator Standard.
Going forward, football players who live in campus housing will no longer have to live in the Keys or Springs 'on campus'. Rather, today they got to tour what will instead be the designated 'on campus' housing for football players, just 'off campus' at The Standard.
Instead of living in dorms that are over 30 years old, the football players will instead live in a building that is only five years old and has amenities that simply aren't available at those older residence halls.
Located at the corner of 13th and University, instead of living four players to a dorm like they currently do, there will only be two bedrooms that share a common area. The thought is that not only will it improve the experience of those younger players who are forced to live 'on campus' but it will also help get those players who didn't want to live in the older residence halls to stick closer to campus, and other teammates, by housing them in The Standard.”
