This weekend the Florida Gators hosted six official visitors on campus for the final weekend of visits before early signing day.
LSU defensive back commit Cordale Flott (6-1, 165, Saraland, AL. High) was on campus and he says he now has a tough decision to make between the school he’s committed to and the Gators.
“It was really good,” Flott said of his official to Florida. “It’s going to be, I believe it’s going to be a 50/50 on signing day, I may push it back to February. I haven’t decided yet.”
This was Flott’s second visit to Gainesville and this time was about meeting everyone and developing better relationships with everyone.
“I like the players,” he said on what he’s likes about Florida. “I’m creating a relationship with the coaches as well so that kind of stands out to me. Coach [Charlton] Warren and Coach [Dan] Mullen [on who he’s building a relationship with].”
Defensive backs coach Charlton Warren has been recruiting Flott hard and the LSU commit likes several things about the assistant coach.
“He’s a good guy, he’s disciplined,” Flott said on his relationship with Warren. “He’s a well developed guy, helping the players out, creating a relationship with them. That’s what stands out too.”
Warren explained to Flott this weekend just how the Gators would use him if he chooses Florida.
“Yeah, that’s what I do,” he said on Warren talking to him about being a press man corner. “That’s what he likes more about me. They like me in press coverage, that’s all I do and they do. I like the scheme, and the defensive backs stand out to me.”
Flott was hosted by defensive back Trey Dean this weekend and the current players had a message to the LSU commit about why Florida is a good fit for him.
“They were telling me that it’s a good place for a degree, football as well,” Flott said on what the current players told him. “Everything connects really and it’s a good spot to be. They’re one of the top programs for academics, I really looking into that.”
The Gators did a good job of impressing Flott this weekend in several different ways but most importantly with academics.
“Basically seeing what I’m looking at in a school is the academic side, I know they have football,” he said on what he likes about Florida. “With LSU and Florida, they have good majors for me.”
Florida will have to battle to flip Flott who has been committed to LSU since the summer and is a school that he has liked a long time.
“It’s a great school, I love LSU,” Flott said on why LSU was his pick. “Me growing up, I liked LSU, they were a school I looked up too. So when I had the opportunity I had to take it.”
