Florida Football Recruiting: Will Hardley Gilmore follow Austin Simmons?

As the headliner of the class of 2025, QB Austin Simmons will have a lot of sway with who comes to Florida football. One of his first targets might be one of his former high school teammates at Pahokee High School.

Because while Simmons is a top-level QB, he had a top-level wide receiver to throw it to last season.

Florida Football: Hardley breaks a sweat

Hardley Gilmore is listed at 6’1″ and 165 pounds on On3, and 6’2″ and 175 pounds on his Hudl. He plays both wide receiver and defensive back.

Typically, we here at Hail Florida Hail will first watch the film on a player before checking out his recruiting profile, and perhaps it’s the players he was matched up against, but he felt way lankier than even a player listed at 6’2″.
