Third-year player Princely Umanmielen, told the Florida Gators SI.com website ‘AllGators’ that it was a big change from the living space he had when he first arrived at Gainesville in 2020.
“The old [coaching] staff, they didn’t even show us where we used to live. And then when we got here, we were caught off guard with the dorms, how small they are and things like that,” Umanmielen said. “So, just that the incoming freshmen are going to be able to have a cool living experience like this, I feel like there’s no other college that has a living experience like that for incoming freshmen. That’s pretty cool.”
Expect the $85 million facility and the new James W. “Bill” Heavener Football Training Center to be major tools for Billy Napier to use in recruiting. The Gators class is currently ranked 10th nationally according to 247Sports composite rankings with 20 verbal commitments.
