Gators mark move-in day with video
Sunday was big for most of the Florida Gators’ football signees. That’s because it officially was move-in day in Gainesville for the program’s mid-year enrollees.
To commemorate the occasion, the Gators released a 39-second video on X with the words “Welcome Home! #2THESW4MP” attached to it.
You can watch that clip below.
The Florida Gators had 15 mid-year enrollees among their high school/junior college signees

Additionally, most of the Gators’ transfers already are on campus, too. In fact, the program held a team meeting Sunday afternoon.
We don’t have all the roommate assignments, but here are a couple of them:
“I’m rooming with LJ (McCray), Kahnen Daniels and Tawaski Abrams,” Graham, the son of Gators running back great Earnest Graham, told Gators Online last week. “And when Aaron (Chiles) comes, he’ll be in there.”
And what about Lagway, the Florida Gators’ prized recruit? He said an interview recently at media day for the Under Armour All-America Game in Orlando, Fla., that he will live alone in Gainesville.
UF signee DJ Lagway is ready to hit the ground running
Lagway is ready to embark on his Gators career.
“I definitely want to get that starting position, but if I don’t I just want to learn from Graham and just grow. That’s the biggest thing. I want to be the best college quarterback I can be,” Lagway said. “I’m going to go out there and compete. I ain’t just gonna give it to nobody. But I respect Graham. He’s a great quarterback. I’m just ready to get to work. I’ve still got a lot of development left. And I just can’t wait for this journey; I’m excited..”
The next move-in day will take place early this summer. That’s when the Gators’ remaining signees will enroll in classes. Those players are: Four-star tight end Amir Jackson of Portal (Ga.), 4-star linebacker Aaron Chiles of Olney (Md.) Good Counsel and 3-star offensive lineman Marcus Mascoll of Snellville (Ga.) South Gwinnett.
