Nay’Quan Wright says goodbye to Florida
To my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Gator Nation, the University of Florida, Gator Football and all of my brothers, past and present; it is with the sincerest gratitude I write this to you all. I have forged unbreakable relationships, earned a degree from a top-5 Institution, all amongst living out my dream to play for the Gators. I will forever be indebted to the many coaches, support staff, and countless individuals who have empowered, supported, and advocated for me along the way. My family deserves an endless amount of love and thanks for having my back through thick and thin, wins and losses, and everything in between. While my experience as a Gator has been invaluable, it is with a full heart and optimism for the future that I announce I will be entering the transfer portal as a graduate transfer this December with 2 years left to play college football. – Nay’Quan Wright
