Pounds has high interest in the Florida Gators program

Last week the Florida Gators expanded their recruiting board for the offensive line position when they offered a prospect that has picked up several big offers of late.

Offensive lineman Diego Pounds (6-6, 305, Raleigh, NC. Millbrook) picked up the offer after he talked to offensive line coach John Hevesy on the phone.

“Coach Hevesy was the one,” Pounds said on the coach from Florida who offered him. “He said well I’m let you know that you have an offer from the University of Florida.”

Just a few days before picking up an offer from Florida, Pounds picked up an offer from Alabama but the lineman was still shocked to hear from the Gators.
