Florida added one of the top defensive players in the transfer portal Sunday, with Penn defensive tackle Joey Slackman announcing his intention to play for the Gators.
Slackman was the 2023 Ivy League Defensive Player of the Year after posting 50 total tackles, 12 tackles for loss and 4 sacks. He has one year of eligibility remaining and felt as though Florida was the right fit for his final season.
"They did the best job of building that relationship with me and explaining to me how I would fit into their defense and how I can help them not just win on the field with my football play, but as a leader," Slackman told ESPN.
