The Florida Gators are the favorites to land Warner Robins (Houston County, Georgia) four-star interior offensive lineman [autotag]Peyton Joseph[/autotag], according to 247Sports’ Blake Alderman, who submitted a crystal ball prediction in favor of UF on Friday.

Joseph visited The Swamp during the recent contact period and is now down to UF, FSU, LSU, Miami, Michigan, Penn State and Tennessee.

“We know there is a good bit of confidence in Gainesville on where Florida stands in Joseph’s recruitment,” Alderman wrote. “A few other finalists also feel UF is where Joseph is leaning as well to our knowledge.”

Joseph will announce his decision on Sunday, Feb. 18 at 4 p.m. ET.

Joseph is a consensus four-star recruit, ranked highest by 247Sports at No. 107 overall in the class of 2025. The On3 industry ranking, which considers all four major recruiting services, puts him at No. 123 nationally and No. 5 among interior offensive linemen in the class.
