Gators Looking To Shore Up Center Position In 2021 Recruiting Class

When it comes to Florida’s 2021 recruiting class there is a position they have been noticeably going at more aggressively—the center spot. The Gators’ coaching staff started pursuing a number of guard and wing targets years ago when 2021 kids were sophomores and freshmen but you have seen a noticeable shift recently to a number of big men targets, something completely understandable considering the current roster balance. Right now the Gators have two true centers on the roster in Omar Payne and Jason Jitoboh who will be entering their sophomore years in the fall and they don’t have a “5” in the 2020 class.
