Notable: James Houston was the 2017 recruiting class’ ninth commit and his decision came at the biggest camp of the summer, Friday Night Lights. In his senior season, Houston was able to win the State Championship playing alongside Gator defensive back signee, Marco Wilson but Houston was forced to watch from the sideline due to a torn ACL.
Quotable: On what coach Randy Shannon’s message was to him,“He says he needs young guys who are ready to make plays immediately. He thinks that I can play inside or outside linebacker.”
