Zaiden Jernigan Eyes Florida | College Basketball News

Florida’s chasing a breakout 2028 recruit in Zaiden Jernigan, the elite four-star running back already ranked top in Mississippi and among the nation’s best for his age. Standing at 5’10” and 195 lbs, he’s tearing up the field with 1,806 all-purpose yards and 24 TDs last season—and nearly 2,000 rushing yards as a freshman. He’s also a track phenom, clocking under 11.2 seconds in the 100m. With Florida hosting him on campus this Saturday for their opener, he’s already named them in his top five—putting the Gators in serious contention against Alabama and Mississippi State. With ten schools vying for his commitment, this recruitment is heating up fast. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
