Breaking News: Florida Gators Beat Florida State, Michigan Lands 4-Star QB for 2026
The Florida Gators are entering one of their most significant seasons, with an eye on the future after receiving promising news. Head football coach Billy Napier, entering his third season with the team, faces a pivotal year.
If the Gators fail to make a bowl game and show competitiveness, Napier risks losing his job, despite positive developments for the team’s future.
One such development is the commitment of highly-regarded quarterback Will Griffin. The 6’3, 225-pound Tampa native chose Florida over Florida State, Michigan, and other top programs.
Griffin, currently ranked as the seventh-best quarterback in the 2026 class by 247sports.com, amassed impressive high school stats: 7,552 yards and 89 touchdowns over two years, including 3,404 passing yards, 34 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions as a sophomore at Jesuit High School in Tampa, Florida.
This recruitment is a significant boost for the Gators as they navigate the upcoming season under the leadership of Coach Napier.
