DL Jamir Perez commits to the Florida Gators over Ohio State

The Florida Gators picked up their second commitment of the Class of 2026 on Sunday after official visits were over.

Defensive lineman Jamir Perez (6-4, 360, Cleveland, OH. Glenville) committed to Florida over Ohio State and others on Sunday after taking an official visit to Florida.

“I always dreamed of myself playing in the SEC,” Perez said. “I feel like I have an SEC type of body, I’m an SEC type of player so therefore Florida just made it home. You know, Gators boys stay hot.”

Perez says he told the coaching staff and players on Saturday night that he was going to make a commitment.
