Talented in-state CB Jahari Rogers commits to Florida over Texas

On Monday evening, one of the nation’s more gifted athletes decided to put an end to his recruitment.

Arlington cornerback Jahari Rogers knew that it was time to make a decision weeks ago, and the Texas Longhorns were right there in the mix of things, but it’s the Florida Gators that ultimately landed the in-state prospect.

Originally, Rogers planned on announcing his decision at The Opening on July 4, but with a series of commitments already planned, the Arlington standout decided to push back his decision and here we are today. In the end, it came down to the Longhorns and the Gators, and both schools did receive an official visit this offseason.
