Notable: Originally a USF commit, Florida offered him on January 13th. Within a week he was on campus for an official visit and offered his verbal pledge to Florida. He’s a dual-threat quarterback by trade, throwing for 3,199 yards and 33 touchdowns in his senior season. He also rushed for 1,499 yards and 20 touchdowns with a 7.73 yards per carry average.

Quotable: “I was so excited about the [Florida] offer that I was running down the hall and my pants fell off,” Porter said. “Even though they had a down season they are still Florida and a powerhouse. I don’t care how you put it they are good and they will be back up near the top very soon in my opinion.”

Richard Johnson
Richard lives in Gainesville and prides himself in being a bonafide lifelong Alachua County Resident. He attends the University of Florida and is in his third year studying Telecommunications. He isn’t sure how he started loving football being the son of two immigrants that don’t care about the sport, but he has developed a borderline unhealthy obsession with it. In his free time, Richard watches other sports and is an avid fan of the Los Angeles Lakers and Tampa Bay Rays. He doesn’t like chocolate, knows Moe’s is better than Chipotle and drinks way too many Arnold Palmers. He also took up golf in the summer of 2012. That pursuit isn’t going well. You can listen to him talk about sports during the Cheapseats radio show on ESPN 850-WRUF or online at WRUF.com. Follow him on Twitter at @RagjUF.
