Countdown to Kickoff 2025

#2 Will White S (1989-92)
White, from Tallahassee Godby, was a high school quarterback who was recruited as a safety. He was a three-year starter who also was a three-time first-team All-SEC selection. He was an All-American as a sophomore in 1990, when he had seven picks and five pass breakups. Three of those picks came in Florida’s program-changing win over Alabama. He graduated with a school-record 14 picks, a figure that now is second in school history. White was selected as a 1st Team All-American by the Football Writer's Associate of America and was a semifinalist for the Jim Thorpe Award. Other top contenders: DT Dominique Easley, RB Jeff Demps, RB Bo Carroll, S Adrian White.

 

#1 Percy Harvin WR (2006-08)
Harvin, a five-star recruit from Virginia, was the most explosive player in school history, making big plays as a receiver and as a runner. He was a first-team All-SEC pick in 2007 and ’08 and also received some All-America acclaim in each season. He had 1,929 receiving yards and 1,852 rushing yards, and accounted for 32 TDs in his three-year career. He is the only player in school history with 100 rushing yards and 100 receiving yards in the same game (113 rushing, 110 receiving vs. Vanderbilt in 2007). He was a first-round pick in the 2009 draft. Other top contenders: CB Vernon Hargreaves, S Reggie Nelson, CB Keiwan Ratliff, WR Jabar Gaffney, DB Wayne Fields, WR Jack Jackson and linebacker Jack Card.

 

Headed out of town to see family on the east coast so I had to speed this Countdown up.
The College football season kicks off 3 days from now on the Emerald Isle.
Hope everyone liked this Countdown and look forward to a successful Gator football season.

 

Really close call between Quezzy and Joe. And Yes, Reche is mentioned in Other Notables. Current players still have a legacy to build but some current kickers and punters were included.
