Randy Shannon’s history intrigues Houston for Florida Gators

Stop me if you’ve heard this before, but the Florida Gators recruiting class needs linebackers in it once again.

On Saturday the Gators offered another linebacker prospect in James Houston (6-1, 220, Plantation, FL American Heritage) who heard the news from Randy Shannon.

“I picked up the Florida offer on Saturday from Coach Shannon,” Houston said. “He was just telling me about his background of coaching players. He told me a lot of stories about the players he coached. He was just trying to let me know that Florida was the best choice for me.”

Shannon made sure to let Houston know that the Gators need linebackers in the class because of Florida losing some seniors.
