Jim McElwain and the new Florida Gators regime secured their first commitment from a quarterback on July 1 and it's 2017 standout Jake Allen.
The 4-star prospect received an offer three weeks ago and didn't wait long to reveal his intentions, calling Florida's staff Wednesday shortly after a cross-country tour that featured visits to Michigan, Notre Dame and Stanford.
"I felt like I owed it to myself to explore some other campuses and understand what else is out there, but by the time I got home I knew I belonged in Gainesville," Allen told Bleacher Report in an exclusive interview.
