Florida hosting Golden State punter for official visit this weekend

With Jeremy Crawshaw’s eligibility expiring at the end of this season, the Gators are eyeing this punter in the 2025 cycle.

Florida football will be rolling out the red carpet this weekend for its second round of official visits and this time around, there is one particular player of interest who will be arriving in Gainesville on Friday.

Punter [autotag]Alex Asparuhov[/autotag] out of Fresno (California) San Joaquin Memorial in the 2025 cycle is unrated and unranked by all of the major scouting organizations but still has the eye of [autotag]Billy Napier[/autotag] and Co. The 6-foot-3-inch, 190-pound specialist’s main contacts so far have been game-changer coordinator Chris Couch and senior analyst Joe Houston.

With current punter [autotag]Jeremy Crawshaw[/autotag]’s eligibility ending following the 2024 campaign and just Jack Muse on the roster as a walk-on behind him, the Orange and Blue could certainly use a boost in the specialists room.

Asparuhov’s 247Sports scouting report

“Asparuhov might be the most fundamentally sound punter in the 2025 class. He scored well at the Underclassman Challenge by accumulating 109.71 points.

“When in rhythm his control and repeatability is special. He scored over 109 points on a cold 40-degree night in December of 2023. He made a big jump at the Western Showcase Camp earlier in the year. He graded out at the 5.0-star level as a punter and 4.5-star level as a kicker.

“Asparuhov scored 110.2 points in punting, 6 of 15 points on field goals, and 103.1 points on kick-offs. His punting is very impressive and he is already a college prospect in punting!

“He competed at his first Kohl’s ranking event during the 2022 Kohl’s California Winter Showcase Camp. He finished with a 39.5 yard average throughout the punt charting. He is way ahead of his age a punter! Asparuhov has the makings of a D1 punter and will be exciting to follow this spring and summer!”
