Gators Eye McGaskin for 2027

Florida’s 2027 recruiting class is heating up fast, already ranked fifth nationally with 19 commitments, including five-star offensive lineman Maxwell Hiller. The Gators are locked in on linebacker Ellis McGaskin — a four-star prospect formerly committed to Notre Dame who’s set to announce his decision this Saturday. With LSU and FSU also chasing him, Florida leads the race with an 85.7% chance of landing him, per Rivals. McGaskin’s stellar junior stats — 160 tackles, 26 TFLs, 4 sacks — made him a top target, with linebackers coach Greg Gasparato leading the push. If he commits, he’ll be Florida’s 20th 2027 commit and ninth defensive player, setting the stage for a dominant future. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
