Florida football’s annual Orange and Blue game is in the rearview mirror but Billy Napier and his staff’s efforts on the recruiting front never stop. On Saturday following the intrasquad scrimmage that represents the end of spring practice, the Gators got a pair of five-star 2025 linebacker recruits on campus for a gander at what the Swamp has to offer them.
The first big name on the board is [autotag]Jadon Perlotte[/autotag] out of Buford (Georgia) who committed to the Georgia Bulldogs back in December. The 6-foot-3-inch-200-pound defender appears to still be weighing his options elsewhere and could give the Gators a chance to flip a top recruit from their biggest rivals.
Perlotte is rated at five stars and ranked No. 22 overall and No. 2 at his position nationally according to the 247Sports composite while the On3 industry ranking has him at four stars and ranked at Nos. 50 and 5, respectively.
Secondly, there is [autotag]Noah Mikhail[/autotag] out of Laverne (California) Bonita, who received a scholarship offer from Florida last week. The 6-foot-2-inch, 210-pound linebacker makes his first-ever stop in Gainesville on Saturday.
Mikhail is rated at five stars and ranked No. 28 overall and No. 3 at his position nationally according to the 247Sports composite while the On3 industry ranking has him at four stars and ranked at Nos. 48 and 4, respectively. On3’s RPM gives the USC Trojans a 31.7% chance of signing him, with the Texas A&M Aggies, Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Washington Huskies trailing behind at 14.2%, 12.2% and 5.3%, respectively.
