Why now? And why did Florida need to announce that a coach under contract through 2027 was returning for the 2025 season?
The short of that is weāre in the home stretch of the recruiting cycle and the Gators could use all the help they could get with the nationās No. 51 class. Fear of Napierās potential exit certainly played a part in that ranking. Not having clarity on that decision wouldāve only made things worse. Thereās no denying that Napier will need a portal-heavy approach this offseason, which could begin 3 weeks from Saturday if Florida misses a bowl berth.
By announcing Napierās return, heāll avoid the questions on the recruiting trail about whether heās coaching for his job down the stretch. Shoot, heāll avoid the questions in his own locker room, which could be significant as the post-regular season transfer portal window opens.

We got a 5 Star......Punter.
The Florida Gators have added to its 2025 recruiting class, this time with its special teams unit.
Punter Hayden Craig (North Bridgton, Maine) pledged his commitment to Florida over an offer from Ole Miss. Additionally, Craigās pledge includes a full-ride scholarship offer, according to Gators Onlineās Corey Bender.
With punter Jeremy Crawshaw entering his fourth season, Craig becomes an immediate replacement should his commitment hold up. Crawshaw's eligibility expires following the 2024 season. Craig is expected to take Crawshaw's scholarship spot once the veteran leaves Florida.
Kohlās Kicking ranks Craig as a five-star punter and the No. 18 overall punter in the 2025 class. Heās also a 4.5-star and the No. 56 overall kicker in the class. Kohlās full comments on Craig can be found below.

F$U screwed even more:
With his recruitment reopened, Jones stands as one of the top uncommitted quarterbacks in the final weeks of the 2025 cycle. Florida has remained in contact this fall with Jones, a four-year starter at Mandarin High School, and sources within the Gators' program are optimistic that Florida will ultimately land Jones in the final weeks of the cycle following the school's decision to keep Billy Napier as head coach beyond 2024.
