Family atmosphere lands Houston in the Florida Gators class

The Florida Gators landed commitment number 11 on Friday night when linebacker James Houston (6-1, 225, Plantation, FL. American Heritage) pledged to Florida.

Houston, who just recently tore his ACL, has visited the Gators a lot in the past and he feels he made the right decision for himself with Florida.

“I feel like in my position right now, it was the best decision for me and my family,” Houston said on why he committed. “It’s close to home; with my knee I can come here for rehab after the season. The education is great too, top in the country.
