It's always a little nerve-racking when you see your head coach's name trending on social media, but Florida head coach Jon Sumrall had the perfect reason for being the talk of the town on Saturday night.
After giving a mid-game hype-up speech at the Florida men's basketball game, Sumrall headed back underneath the stands and through the tunnel.
There, he was greeted by Amare Nugent, a four-star cornerback in the class of 2027 who has been highly recruited by the Gators. Then, without much lead-up, Nugent verbally committed to Sumrall and Florida.

To put it lightly, Sumrall was pretty hyped up to receive his first high school commitment from the upcoming class of prospects.
