GADSDEN, Ala. %u2014 When Dre%u2019 Kirkpatrick began receiving scholarship offers after his junior season, he thought he wanted to play for Florida.
After all, Kirkpatrick had grown up rooting for the Gators. Yet Kirkpatrick, the nation%u2019s top-ranked high school cornerback, signed with Alabama on Wednesday.
Florida didn%u2019t even finish as the runner-up for Kirkpatrick. That distinction went to Texas.
