Two years ago Brad Stewart was sitting in Tiger Stadium watching Florida and LSU play. Florida wasn’t scheduled to be in Baton Rouge that weekend but Hurricane Matthew delayed the game and moved it from Gainesville, so he, as a four-star recruit from New Orleans wasn’t going to miss the game between the two schools he was considering.
Stewart watched that game intently and when it was over he knew where he wanted to be.
“I remember that fourth down stop. I remember them driving on the last drive. I remember them getting to the goal line and Gators coming out victorious,” Stewart said.
