The bulk of the Florida Gators' recruiting work has already been done for the Class of 2016, but there's still a handful of major impact signings which could be on the horizon for Jim McElwain's coaching staff before next Wednesday's National Signing Day. Here's our list of 3 Top Uncommitted 2016 Football Recruits Florida Can Still Land.
OL John Simpson
The four-star North Charleston (SC) product narrowed his list down to two schools following an official visit to Clemson this past weekend -- the aforementioned Tigers and Florida.
Ranked as the #7 offensive guard in the Class of 2016 by 247Sports, Simpson had a "good" in-home visit with Jim McElwain on Tuesday and was told by the UF head coach that he is a "big-time player" that would have a major impact in Gainesville -- a sentiment that sat well with the standout offensive lineman.
CB Kristian Fulton
All signs point to LSU for the five-star Metairie (LA) star, especially with the fact that Florida is currently operating without a defensive backs coach after Kirk Callahan was fired earlier this month.
Fulton is slated to visit Gainesville this weekend, though, giving the Gators a chance to explain their vision for the future of the secondary and make the final in-person impression on Fulton before Signing Day.
DE Brian Burns
The four-star Fort Lauderdale defensive end is a solid favorite to remain in state with the Gators, but keep an eye on Georgia and Florida State as the week wears on. Ranked as the #5 weak-side defensive end in the Class of 2016, Burns would be a major topper for a Gators defensive haul that's majorly impressive as is.
