Florida Gators podcast recapping football camp and more

June 07, 2016

This Gator Country podcast brings you the latest on what happened during the Florida Gators football camp last week, as the Gators hosted several commits on campus for camp.

Andrew Spivey and Nick de la Torre break down how each of the Gators commits during the camp, plus what other visitors impressed us while on campus.

Andrew and Nick also talk the latest trash talk from Jalen Tabor, plus recap how the Gators baseball team during the Gainesville regional last weekend.

TRANSCRIPT:

Andrew:                 What’s up, Gator Country? Your man, Andrew Spivey here. My man, Nicholas de la Torre. Nicholas, what’s up in the baseball world, my friend?

Nick:                         All is good in the baseball world. Excuse my voice, getting over bronchitis. That was fun. Florida moving on. All is good in the baseball world. Got some recruiting to bring to you, and a little Jalen Tabor Tennessee smack talk, which Andrew will love, and I’m sure you guys will enjoy his thoughts and feelings on that one.

Andrew:                 That made my day. Nick, show the people what I sent you, quickly after Tabor posted that.

Nick:                         Andrew has a new favorite player.

Andrew:                 That’s right. Anybody who doesn’t know who that is by now, we share the Tennessee hate together, and that’s only Mr. Tabor. It was good. Nick, as far as being sick, the only pain that matter is the pain that leaves your body.

Nick:                         Pain is weakness leaving the body.

Andrew:                 It is, and that’s weakness. You’re a stronger man today.

Nick:                         I don’t feel like it, but I guess. You were in town. There were a lot of prospects. Like 300 kids in town?

Andrew:                 Yeah, give or take a few. There was a lot of what I call the paying members of the offensive line and defensive line camp, and then seven on seven was there. They had that annual seven on seven tournament, which Vanguard, local school, walked away with the title. Some good players. You had South Bridge team that’s really load, has Kemore Gamble on that team, and some 2018 receivers, Daquarius Williams, a Miami commit. Mark Pope is another guy on that team. Then you had Daquon Green’s team from Tampa Tech. Vanguard, as I mentioned, won the championship, and they had Justin Watkins, the big time 2018 receiver, slot receiver, athlete, on that. Then they had the Miami quarterback. You had Miramar in town, and a few other schools. You had William Poole, the Georgia commit, in from Atlanta. It was a really good event. Then you had a few OL/DL that was pretty good as well. That was good. Good event overall. The weather stuck it out.

Nick:                         Over at the Mac we had weather delays in all three games, but you guys at the camp were able to run into the indoor when there was lightening. So that’s just another advantage. When you think of all the advantages of having that indoor facility, just another one when you look at these camps and being able to not have to push it back or even cancel a camp because of weather. It looked like a camp crowd for the big man challenge, but it seemed like the seven on seven is where really the big prospects and maybe some of the recruiting was going on. With Daquon Green, probably causing the biggest splash. I’m sitting on Twitter covering the baseball game, and my entire timeline is just Daquon Green and people reacting to some of the catches he had. Just fill us in. How did the commits look? Kemore, Daquon, how do the commits look, and what were they telling you about their visit, about their experience?

Andrew:                 Let’s start with Daquon Green real quick. You had it in the Swamp, and then you had it in the in
