WILTFONG WHIPAROUND: Florida looking for swing, Alabama leads for 5-stars & more

It was a busy weekend by the official visits to the country when the recruitment route heats up. In the following we deliver the latest news, notes and Intel to top recruits who were traveling over the weekend.

Florida wants to gain dynamics in 2026

On Sunday, head coach Billy Napier and his employees of Gator landed the number 2 of the cycle, which defeated the state of Ohio and Wisconsin for Cleveland (Ohio) Glenville Defensive Lineman Jamir Perez. Perez does not seem to be the only coveted goal of Florida for which Florida was moving.

“If someone thought he wouldn't have a chance before they definitely have one” Felix Ojo said.

The Gators fight in Texas, the same buckeyes, Oklahoma and Michigan for Ojo. They had it on campus twice this year and cannot be slept when they go forward.

Fairburn (GA.) Langston Hughes On300 runs back Carsyn Baker After a spring visit called Ohio State Sat his leader. Florida was a school in which he kept warm. Things have risen a notch after his official.

“The Gators have definitely raised my charts and set a high standard for the other OVS that I take,” said Baker.

These other schools include Clemson, Florida State, Ohio State and South Carolina.

Florida is in the middle of the coveted in-state goals in No. 4 recipients of the nation of the nation Calvin Russell and No. 6 Cornerback Chauncey Kennon.

The Gators closed the 2025 cycle very strongly with the recruitment class of the on3 industry of No. 10 of the ranking lists in the industry. You have to hit some of these names to end in 2026 between these heights.

Penn State leads for a few advertised defensive back

Penn State has 16 commits and recruitment class No. 11 of the On3 industry. They lead or are at the top with a handful of others. At the moment I think Khary Adams. Oregon is also involved, but I have the Irish on both points.

Another valuable cornerback Dorian Barney has committed to a few different occasions close to Texas A&M. He now says that Penn is leading State. Michigan and Colorado are a few others in the mix, but now the Nittany Lions are the pace.

Coveted target/recipient destination Joey O'Brien Was impressive during his visits, including several according to Penn State. I've had my forecast at Penn State before. It is currently with Notre Dame, but the blue chipper could end up in Happy Valley, South Bend or Eugene.

Georgia in a good place for several weekend visitors

On3 had the sums of a large recruitment weekend in Georgia for the Kirby Smart Scavenger Hunt and the returns continue on Sunday evening and Monday morning. The top recruit on the campus was a five-star-offensive lineman Darius Gray.

“Coach Smart will die for his players,” said Gray. “Don't find that often!”

Georgia is fighting against LSU, South Carolina, Clemson and the state of Ohio for the nation's nation's nation.

“The environment was great,” added Gray. “Had a lot of fun! The biggest snack was the development that is going on here. You will prepare you NFL!”

This weekend was an eye opener for Gray and On300 recipients Jalen Lott. I think Georgia will ultimately add recruits from the weekend. The two who are most noticed are on300 Edge Rusher Khamari Brooks and on300 defensive back/receiver Ryan Mosley.

The relationship that I was able to build with coach (Chidera Uzo) Diribe feels a priority every time, ”said Brooks.

“It was great,” said Mosley. “I had a great time. The scavenger hunt was fun and a way to compete, to see more of the campus and enjoy it. They only showed me that they know how to let go of and have fun outside the football and the fraternity there is incredible.

Two other Georgia are in a strong position for which On300 Line backers are Shadarius Toodle and on300 defensive lineman Carter Luckie. Toodle is an Auburn commit, but the Bulldogs are the front conductor.

“Georgia makes me really difficult for me,” said Toodle. “I had a great time and you are definitely number 1 on my list at the moment and it was great to meet Jalon Walker. Everyone said we were twins. But he was a cool person to be nearby, and only the background of Georgia linackers speaks for himself.”

“The environment is great at an event like the scavenger hunt,” said Luckie. “My favorite activity to Uga is my relationship with Coach (tray) Scott and the way he trains his boys.”

I have the feeling that Uga set the bar with On300 linacker Nick Abrams as well as. He will still take his trips to Alabama, Michigan and Oregon. A source believes that Georgia will be an important factor for the four-star recipient Tyren Wortham, which will be back for an OV on the weekend of May 30th.

Alabama the program to pay attention to five-star LB

Gainesville (GA.) High five-star linacker Xavier Griffin Opened his recruitment again last week to support his longstanding promise to USC.

Alabama is in motion. From the relationship with Christian Robinson and the employees and the connections to Tuscaloosa, with his grandfather working directly from the campus on the street, many things in terms of grip and the flood are useful.

As hard as Alabama, who recruited grip, the blue chipper was just as consistent when maintaining the dialogue and the connection.

I see Texas as the greatest threat. The state of Ohio is involved. Georgia will try to create the ground. I think programs will go out for him. But at the moment Alabama is in a great place for the No. 2 linacker of the On3 industry and the overall prospect No. 28.
