Florida Gators flip four-star WR Tyrie Cleveland

Florida's offense got a huge jolt Wednesday morning when WR Tyrie Cleveland flipped his commitment to the Gators.

Cleveland from Houston's Westfield High had been orally committed to Houston. But the four-star recruit and 247Sports' No. 2 receiver in the country entered the stage wearing a Gators sweatshirt and ripped jeans. He signed his letter of intent to UF moments later.

The 6-foot-2, 189-pound Cleveland also considered TCU, among others. Cleveland is one of UF's most highly touted receiving prospects since Percy Harvin.

The Gators have announced a few other signings: Three-star DE Jachai Polite (Daytona Beach Mainland), three-star RB Lamical Perine and three-star OL Jawaan Taylor (Cocoa).
