4 star DE Malik Langham picks Florida over Alabama, Auburn

Dan Mullen pulled off a recruiting stunner today.

The new Florida coach landed Lee-Huntsville four-star defensive end Malik Langham, who chose to sign with the Gators this afternoon over Alabama and Auburn. Langham is rated the No. 9 strong-side defensive in the nation end and No. 222 recruit overall by 247Sports. He is No. 11 on the AL.com A-List of the state's top senior prospects.

Florida initially offered Langham when Jim McElwain was head coach. Mullen, who offered Langham while at Mississippi State, confirmed the Gators' offer shortly after taking over in Gainesville in late November.
