Isaiah Nixon commits to the Florida Gators

The Florida Gators picked up their 7th commitment of the 2023 class on Tuesday afternoon when an in-state prospect committed to Florida.

Defensive end Isaiah Nixon (6-4, 215, Saint Petersburg, FL. Lakewood) committed to Florida just one day after leaving the UCF class after he was in Gainesville over the weekend.

“Home!! #GoGators,” Nixon tweeted.

Nixon has been on campus several times and has built a solid relationship with outside linebackers coach Mike Peterson that dates back two years now.
