Tavaris Dice

School: Langston Hughes

Hometown: Fairburn, GA.

Height: 6-4

Weight: 295

Position: offensive tackle

247 Ranking: 4-star

Recruited by: John Decoster

Enrollment date: January of 2025

Notable:  Dice was a longtime commit for Auburn but the Gators continued to push for him and get him on campus and that paid off in the end. Dice plays basketball in high school and is a guy that should instantly be in the two-deep for the Gators once he arrives on campus.

Quotable: “I was talking to the offensive line coaches and getting close to them in the player meetings,” Dice said on the coaches he talked to on Saturday. “We watched some drills and knowing that there will always be a coach here to help me and that’s big. If you don’t want to work then that’s just being lazy, the big thing here is toughness and development.”
