Sharif Denson pledged to Florida in style on Monday. The top-200 defensive back announced his decision with a must-watch commitment video.

Denson had some company in the 1:08 clip, with Jacksonville Gators Fred Weary, Ciatrick Fason, Lito Sheppard and Gus Scott making a cameo. All four former UF players, followed by Denson, had the same message in the video: Jacksonville is “Gator Country.”

With the addition of Denson, Florida will now sign a player from Jacksonville for the fifth consecutive recruiting cycle. UF is up to nine commitments in its 2023 class, which is now ranked No. 17 nationally.

The 5-foot-11, 170-pound Denson is ranked the No. 23 cornerback and No. 196 overall prospect in the On3 Consensus. He picked the Gators over Florida State, Miami, Ohio State, South Carolina, and Texas A&M.
