Florida flips Gardner from Miami

Saturday was a big day for Florida as they hosted several top recruits on campus for Will Muschamp’s camp and received a big commitment for the Class of 2016.

2016 cornerback Chauncey Gardner (5-11, 190, Cocoa, FL High) camped at Florida on Saturday and received an offer and he immediately flipped his commitment from Miami to Florida.

“I Would Like To Thank Miami For All The Opportunities They Presented To Me But I’m Taking My Talents To Gainesville #CHOMP #GoGators,” Gardner said via Twitter.”

Gardner, who has two offers from the in-state schools, joins Baton Rouge cornerback Tre Jackson and Naples receiver Tyler Byrd as members of the Class of 2016.

As a sophomore Gardner rushed for 92 yards and 3 touchdowns while also catching 3 touchdowns and adding another 307 yards receiving on offense.

On defense Gardener recorded 37 tackles and had 3 interceptions while also blocking punt for Cocoa.
