Monday afternoon, offensive tackle [autotag]Bryce Lovett[/autotag] announced on his Twitter account that he has committed to play for the Florida Gators. A three-star recruit in the 2023 class, Lovett chose the Gators over Iowa State, Louisville and Missouri. He’s rated as the 728th best prospect in the class on the 247Sports composite.
Lovett has been on the Gators’ radar for a long time and he came to Florida’s campus five times this year before locking down his commitment. In his Twitter announcement, Lovett thanked his mother, brother, coaches, and teammates, singling out two of his best friends before stating that he’d play in Gainesville.
“He’s a really cool dude. He keeps it real,” Lovett said of coach [autotag]Rob Sale[/autotag] in an interview with On3 Sports. “He always makes sure I’m good and gives me tips on what to do during practice. Even though I’m not even there yet, he’s always trying to better me.”
As we’re coming to find out, the Gators’ offensive staff love big lineman. Standing at 6-feet-6-inches, the newest Gator fits that bill. Here’s a look at one of Lovett’s camp reps.
