The Florida Gators have further strengthened their class of 2026 with the latest commitment from cornerback Jaelen Waters. Waters chose Florida just weeks after withdrawing his commitment from rival Florida State, where he originally pledged to in late April. Given that Waters’ father is a Gators fan, many believed his move to Florida was inevitable.
