SOCIAL SLANT: Reaction to the Gators landing 6-foot-8 OL Caden Jones
On Saturday afternoon, the University of Florida came up on the winning side for four-star offensive tackle, Caden Jones, who made his commitment public at the All-American Bowl.
Jones, 6-foot-8, 300 pounds, also considered offers from Texas A&M and Houston; however, all eyes were on the Gators and Aggies down the stretch. He is the 21st senior to join forces with Billy Napier’s program, while a quartet of transfers are in the fold as well.
