Kelvin Taylor on Martez Ivey: 'That guy's a freak'

GAINESVILLE - Offensive lineman Martez Ivey entered Florida as the top recruit at his position, so it shouldn't be a surprise that he's already impressing teammates in his first fall camp.

"That guy's a freak, dude," running back Kelvin Taylor said. "He's going to be great, man. He wasn't a five-star (recruit) for nothing."

The 6-foot-6, 290-pound Ivey starred at Apopka and earned high school All-America honors. As UF replaces four starters on the offensive line, Ivey has gotten looks as a first-team tackle. Taylor said Ivey pops out in the film room.

"Trust me," Taylor said.
