The Florida Gators had a big-recruiting-visit weekend including running back Chad Gasper from Katy Jordan High School in Texas.
However, that didn’t deter him from committing in May, and his official visit from May 30-June 2 confirmed to him that he made the right decision, he revealed on Sunday after leaving UF’s football facilities.
“It was great. I loved meeting the coaching staff. Came on an unofficial visit, they showed me the basics of an official visit. I was kind of unsure of what went on around here. I wasn’t sure of my decisions,” he said.As far as his own recruitment goes, Gasper has all but shut it down following his commitment. Florida’s main competitor for Gasper was Tennessee, but he said communication with them has cooled down following his commitment to the Gators.
“I used to hear from them before I committed here. I used to hear from them a lot, but now they have cooled off from me. They don’t really text me like that,” he explained.that Kansas, which was previously considered a top-four school in his recruitment, is no longer in the running. At the moment, he has no plans for visiting other schools and will visit Florida again during the season, but he hasn’t decided what game..
“They develop running backs, and really the whole team, into great young men. That’s how my parents want me to be,” he said.“We were just trying to talk to everybody,” he said. “Tell them, ‘Hey, you ain’t got nothing to wait for. You might as well just hurry up and commit.’ It’s going pretty good. We’re just trying to make everybody change their minds.”The Gators hosted a pair of uncommitted four-star receivers in Naeshaun Montgomery and Joshua Moore.
