Two Florida targets set July 15 commitment date

Florida has been working on a pair of in-state targets from the class of 2024, but time is running thin for the Gators with a mid-July commitment date now in place.

Two Florida recruiting targets from the Florida State University School are planning on announcing their commitment decisions on July 15, according to a pair of social media posts shared below.

Micahi Danzy and Ashton Hampton are both athletes at the lab school, but the former is more likely to end up at running back and the latter is a talented defensive back. Florida has a higher chance of landing Hampton after hosting him over the summer for an official visit. Danzy’s last trip to the Swamp came in late March.

The On3 recruiting prediction machine gives the Florida State Seminoles a 99% chance of landing Danzy, with Florida apparently holding the bulk of the percentage point left to fight over. Hampton is actually projected to end up at Clemson (49.4%), but Florida (19.5%) and Arkansas (16.3%) are putting up a decent battle.

Danzy is a four-star recruit everywhere except Rivals.com, which is interestingly the only service that believes Hampton is a four-star instead of a three-star talent as well.

Regardless, the On3 industry ranking, which uses a weighted average of all four major services, has Danzy higher at No. 176 nationally and No. 6 among athletes in the class of 2024. Hampton is No. 721 and No. 34 among athletes, respectively.
