Overview:
Bogle was one of coach Dan Mullen‘s first major recruiting wins, and it came over the sport’s greatest coach in Nick Saban. Bogle committed to Alabama the January of his senior year, but on National Signing Day, he announced that he’d be flipping to Florida.
A four-star recruit and top-100 player, Bogle saw early action as a true freshman, playing in all 13 games as a rotational linebacker/BUCK player. He totaled 17 tackles and 2.5 sacks.
Bogle was expected to play a rotational role again in 2020, but a season-ending injury to Jeremiah Moon led to him starting four games at BUCK, and he had a career-high 27 tackles with four sacks and a fumble recovery.
He was expected to be a key member of the rotation once again, and while the bulk of the playing time has gone to Moon and Brenton Cox Jr., Bogle has still appeared in all seven games and has 14 tackles to go with a sack.
Bogle has never quite had the impact he was expected to coming out of high school, but he has been an important and reliable member of this defense since arriving on campus.
