Gators defeat SEC powers Alabama, Georgia on recruiting trail

The Florida Gators — and the rest of the SEC — lag behind Alabama and Georgia on the football field.

But the Gators made some nice inroads on the recruiting trail on National Signing Day.

Dan Mullen and his staff landed a big-time recruit at the expense of each of the SEC heavyweights.

The Gators’ day got off to a fast start when Fort Lauderdale defensive end Khris Bogle — the state’s No. 1 prospect according to the Orlando Sentinel’s top 100 - changed his commitment from Alabama to UF.
