The Florida football team is losing its top-rated recruit.

Four-star cornerback Chris Steele entered the NCAA Transfer Portal on Thursday, according to multiple reports.

Steele’s transfer comes just days after another four-star prospect, quarterback Jalon Jones, entered the transfer portal after he was accused of sexual assault by two UF students.

According to a report from the Gainesville Sun, which Steele has retweeted, the cornerback decided to transfer because he was uncomfortable living in the same dorm as Jones.
