Another freshman joins QB competition at Florida

A new player is entering the quarterback competition at Florida this week.

No, it’s not Malik Zaire, the graduate transfer from Notre Dame.

It’s Jake Allen, the true freshman from Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas who graduated last week and is enrolled in the Summer A semester at UF. He begins classes today.

Allen is one of two May high school graduates getting an early jump on the other 16 true freshmen who will arrive in Gainesville next month for the start of Summer B. The other is offensive lineman T.J. Moore, a four-star prospect from Charlotte, N.
