Florida moves quickly to offer one of state’s top juniors

Centennial junior David Yankey, one of the state’s top prospects for 2010, knows that he is increasingly a hot commodity. Knights coach Jeff Measor said Florida, in town for the SEC championship game against Alabama, informally extended a scholarship offer through him to his 6-foot-5, 250 tackle.

“They told me he’s in their top two or three offensive tackles,” Measor said. “He’s one of their higher ranked kids on their board. They love everything about him.”

Measor said Yankey, who recently visited Florida with Knights defensive end Euclid Cummings, likely will get an official scholarship letter in the next week or two. Yankey also has offers from South Carolina and Duke.

8000 people per game in the ACC? that is a lot? georgia has at least 93,000 per game, excluding bowl games. and 43,000 is a lot. i think you are mistaken ACC fan. those are some small numbers.

You idiots should learn to have respect for your betters…

If and when you get an education you’ll realize how embarrassed of yourselves you should be.

The Gators just called another timeout and will gladly take the best prospects from Florida, Georgia, and the rest of the southeast.
