As four-star defensive back Azareyeh Thomas gets closer to his decision date, Florida, LSU and Georgia Tech continue to jockey for his pledge. The Gators made another push to land his commitment this past weekend. He logged his second visit to the Swamp this summer.
“To come back just feels great,” Thomas said, according to Swamp247. “It’s a real good atmosphere, and I still feel the same way about Florida. They are really at my top right now. So far, they have impressed me even more.”
Because he’s such a priority target for Florida, he didn’t need to work out at Friday Night Lights but elected to do so anyway. This gave him the chance to be coached by Florida cornerbacks coach Jules Montinar. He enjoyed this opportunity because he was able to get a feel for how he coaches.

Thomas recently trimmed his list down to the three schools mentioned previously, but the Gators and Tigers are viewed as the front runners for his pledge. Florida sits near the top for him because of how hard it has recruited him.
“To be honest, it’s just the consistency,” he said. “Coach Jules, coach (Dan) Mullen, they text me almost every day. I talk to coach Jules every day. So, I mean the consistency and I feel like they want me. I know they want me. So that is great as well.”
Thomas hopes to have a decision done sometime in the next month. He said he will rely on his gut to help him make his choice.
