2014 DE Justin Thornton gets Gator offer.
2014 DE Justin Thornton 6-4 225
Vigor High School
Prichard AL
2.17.2014 received Gator offer.
Would like to wear jersey #4.
**********
Thornton made a trip to FSU this weekend and the FSU staff thought he would commit to them. He was ready to announce his commit tonight then Florida stepped in with an offer. If you read the thread were 2014 Denzel Ware decommitted I said that FSU thinks they are getting Thornton but I was hoping and expecting our staff to step in and I am glad they did here is his film.

One of the reasons I am not too worried about Florida's DE haul in 2013 is because Florida is in on a lot of good prospects in the 2014 class. I will post the rest of the 2014 DE highlights soon

Thanks for posting the highlights. He blows up play after play in the video even with double teams.
Interesting that we're his dream school. Not often that happens with AL kids.

Still. A bird in the hand and all..
Plus, I like his height better. At 6-5 he can add bulk quickly to that lanky frame.

That's big considering FSU was on him pretty early and he was a heavy FSU lean up until we offered just over a week ago.

Agreed. We weren't slow playing him, but the fact that he was going to commit to FSU was why we made sure to offer him before he did.

Any chance we could get him and Lorenzo Carter? Only got one Buck in the '13 class. We should probably go for two in this class.

Very Impressive film, I know we are in it for Deshaun Hand too but I can’t image he is that much better and I hope we can sign either but I doubt we would get both. anyway it's early, very early

I was trying to figure out how Thornton ended up a Gator fan in light of where he lives. What a great story. You know he is going to give 100% of himself to the program. Can't wait for him to pull the trigger!
