Florida WR target sets commitment date, names Gators in top 4

Florida is in four-star wide receiver Daquavious Sorey’s top four as he mulls over his decision that will now be announced on Independence Day.

At one point, it seemed like [autotag]Billy Napier[/autotag] and the Florida Gators would have to plan against four-star Chipley wide receiver [autotag]Daquayvious Sorey[/autotag] with him committed to the rival Georgia Bulldogs. A February decommittment put Sorey back on the market though, and Napier quickly got UF back in the mix.

Fast forward to June and Sorey’s top four now consists of Florida, Alabama, Auburn and Miami, according to On3’s Chad Simmons. He’ll pick among the four programs on July 4 and is working out an official visit schedule. The Gators and Tigers should host him over the next week or so, and the Tide has had him on campus in the past. The Hurricanes are the only team within his top four not to have brought him on campus so far.

“These four schools have shown me so much love, and I feel like they will help me fulfill my potential and help me get to the league,” Sorey said.

A three-sport athlete, Sorey flashed his above-average speed on the track with an 11.54-second finish in the 100-meter event as a sophomore. His cousin, Xavian, committed to Georgia as a five-star recruit in the class of 2021.

The 247Sports composite ranks Sorey at No. 179 among all recruits in the class of 2023 and at No. 26 among receivers. The site’s individual rankings have him in the top 100 overall, but On3’s service doesn’t even have him ranked nationally as a three-star recruit. He lands at No. 202 overall on the On3 consensus, an aggregate ranking similar to the composite.
