UF football transfer tracker: Jon Sumrall rebuilds 2026 Gators’ roster

GAINESVILLE — New UF coach Jon Sumrall arrived from Tulane to resurrect a program coming off a 4-8 season, the Gators’ fourth losing season in five years — including the past four under Billy Napier.

After signing a 2026 recruiting class ranked 16th nationally while he still coached the Green Wave, Sumrall and his evolving staff turned their attention preparing for the 15-day transfer portal window Jan. 2-16.

Sumrall and Co. aim to retain top talent from the 2025 Gators and add players from other schools seeking a new opportunity.
