New Florida Head Coach Reveals Plans for 2026 | Jon Sumrall Interview

I sat down with new Florida football head coach Jon Sumrall to talk about his journey from Troy to Tulane and now taking over one of the biggest jobs in college football at Florida. We talked about why he chose the Gators, the culture he’s trying to build in Gainesville, and why empowering player leadership is a major part of his program. Sumrall also opened up about navigating the modern era of college football, including recruiting, the transfer portal, NIL, and what it takes to build a roster that can compete at the highest level in the SEC.
