Recorded 28 tackles (10 solo), three sacks and a fumble recovery during his lone season at EMCC. Ranked as the seventh-best junior college player in the country by Rivals.

Quotable: “I think I fit in great at Florida in their defense. (Muschamp) was telling me I could play defensive tackle and defensive end like (Sharrif) Floyd and (Dominique) Easley do now. I’m glad to be able to play for coach Bryant Young, too.” – Cummings told GatorCountry.com.
