By: Nick Marcinko -- July 3, 2025 Gator Country predicts five potential breakout players in 2025. For the purpose of this article, I will not be including sophomore quarterback DJ Lagway as there’s already significant amounts of hype surrounding him, although he could easily be considered a breakout candidate.

It’s huge that our LB room has gone from one of the biggest liabilities on our defense to a team strength in ~2 short years.
Interestingly when I talked with Lagway a month ago I asked him which player he thinks will be the game changer this year for us he quickly said "Aaron Chiles...no doubt...the guy has been totally unblockable in the offseason and is a monster". Im surprised Chiles was left off Gatorcountry's list.
