By: Nick Marcinko -- July 23, 2025 Florida football is near. In exactly one week, the Gators will take the practice field for the start of fall camp. Expectations are as high as they’ve been under Billy Napier, who enters his fourth year as head coach. Fall is a different dynamic than spring as the players start to separate themselves while the staff establishes roles ahead of week one. Gator Country takes a look at five position battles you should keep an eye on throughout fall camp. Fall camp preview: Five position battles to watch | GatorCountry.com
I didn't realize we were somewhat thin at DB. That second string O-line will have to be ready by next year, hopefully the starting line stay healthy enough to get though this entire year, because that's a posittion that requires a few years to get up the SEC speed.
We have plenty of db talent if they can stay on the field. Our best/ most experienced one hasnt made it through a season. Johnson hopefully is available. We had a highly rated freshman last year that was injured all year. Its not the numbers that scare me , its the availability. We went though several last year.
