Just heard from someone close to situation that Nick Washington is closing in on a commitment to Florida. #Gators

(Carlyon writes for the Florida Times Union)

I would expect this to go down after the baseball game. He met with Sully before the game (he's a two-way star)...

[SUGator51]

It's done, per Derek.

[stomp_and_chomp]

Ya, I think this is happening. Lot's of smoke here. It would be great to have him playing baseball as well... that team is going to win it all within the next 3 years (if not this year).

Good call SU. This is turning out to be a 'Super Saturday'.

[INGATORSWETRUST]

Guss Scott, his HS coach, confirmed.

[Eggy21]

Nice. Great get.

[Jaggator]

What are the chances of having 7 (5-stars) in this class?

[StrangeGator]

Great start for the D backfield.

[SUGator51]

Still may not be done...

Trying to get Derek's thoughts since he broke all four commitments today.

[deviation]

Any word on Tunsil?

[SUGator51]

Said the visit was great, felt like home, Coach Young's like a father figure...

But didn't name us his leader.

Still have to like where we stand though...

Doesn't he only have two favorites? Or am I thinking of someone else?

[SUGator51]

No.

It's understood UF and UGA are his top two and we lead, but he hasn't formally named them as such.

I can't believe FSU hasn't been a factor..

[Nicho]

Still may not be done...

Good God. This has to rank among the best single days in UF recruiting history, even counting NSDs.

[Gatorrick22]

No.

I see - thanks again SU.

[Jaggator]

We just recently had a thread about how poorly Jacksonville has been recruited in recent years.

Nick is the 2nd stud committed to Florida coming from the Jacksonville area with a couple more to follow.

Great news!

[Nicho]

One thing you're NOT going to hear this year is the old familiar refrain about us focusing on too many OOS kids.

[G8RNTN]

Done deal!!

I wanted to bump that thread!

McMillan, Washington, and Powell...all from Quinn's area.

Add in the help he provided on Brantley and he's done some big time work so far.

Had trouble believing it then, and have even more trouble believing it now...

[WindoverG8tr]

this kid hits and attacks on some of these highlights as well as any recruit in recent memory

[percyharvey]

My second favorite commitment of the day. The staff is really cleaning up!

[RayGator]

Go Gators!

[UFcody]

Watched Nick play today.. He looked real good on defense seemed to always be around the ball.

On offense he had some real nice runs, one was a 40+ yd TD run.

Isaiah Ford is a sophomore/junior that plays with Nick this is gonna be a kid to pay attention to. He is a stud WR and RB and got MVP of the game.

[RayGator]

I know we have a lot of Gators from the Jax area on here. So, how did Senior year go at TCA?

[RayGator]

Considering the guy is a 4 star Commit, he doesn't seem to get much attention on here.

[sbcg8r]

Amen Ray. Plus, he's been a dynamite recruiter for us in this class.

[gator7_5]

Considering the guy is a 4 star Commit, he doesn't seem to get much attention on here.
I think everyone appreciates what Nick has done and will do as a gator. Most probably aren't commenting to prevent these committment threads from crowding and bogging down the relevant recruiting threads at the top..

[bofusgators]

All of this seems like good stuff.

[RayGator]

I think he's at the Ole Miss basketball game at the O Connell Center tonight. Anyone there can confirm this?

[RayGator]

Nick has submitted his LOI to the Florida Gators! ::)
