Four-star Fort Myers (Fla.) Bishop Verot cornerback Chris Graves has been committed to Miami for nearly five months. But Florida remains in a potential threat.

Gators cornerbacks coach Jules Montinar made his way across the state Tuesday morning to see Graves, who posted about it on Twitter.

Graves is the No. 156 prospect in the 2022 class, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He ranks as the nation’s No. 21 cornerback and the No. 21 prospect in Florida.

The 6-foot, 175-pounder visited the Gators over the summer, as well as making trips to LSU, South Carolina and Miami before ultimately committing to Manny Diaz and Co. on July 9.

The Gators have remained in contact, though, and Graves visited Florida in early October.

“I’m just scoping things out,” Chris Graves told On3 Director of Recruiting Chad Simmons of that visit.

Florida recently hired Louisiana head coach Billy Napier to replace Dan Mullen, who was fired after four seasons in Gainesville.
