What Florida might lack at depth in natural cornerbacks this year it more than makes up for it with prospects at safety. Florida is loaded at the position this year and no team has cleaned up like Florida State. The Seminoles landed three of the state's top 10 safeties including the top-rated player nationally at the position
Karlos Williams (Davenport, Fla./Ridge Community) and ESPNU 150 member
Keelin Smith (Port St. Lucie, Fla./Treasure Coast). It's never a surprise when Alabama grabs a top-flight defensive back and
Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix (Orlando, Fla./Dr. Phillips) is as good as it gets.Clemson, which has recruited running backs and defensive backs in Florida as well as anyone, scooped up rangy athlete
Cortez Davis (Daytona Beach, Fla./Mainland) and retained him after a brief flirtation with Florida State.
Jeremy Cash (Plantation, Fla./Plantation) struggled with injuries for much of the season, but when he is healthy he has as much natural ability as any player at his position.
Top unsigned prospectsOle Miss' loss could again be someone's gain as Under Armour All-American
Gerrod Holliman (Miami, Fla./Southridge) is on the hunt after being committed to the Rebels for six months. Miami is definitely in play for the 5-foot-11, 180-pounder. Ole Miss, LSU and Cincinnati will get official visits. West Virginia and Louisville could also be in the mix.Another Under Armour All-American,
Jabari Gorman (Miami, Fla./Monsignor Pace) looked to be all locked up for Ohio State two months ago, but now Miami and Florida have jumped into the picture. The 6-0, 180-pounder also says Florida State has been trying to get him there on a visit.Four-star prospect
Marcus Roberson (Fort Lauderdale, Fla./St. Thomas Aquinas) is another player that's been linked with a school for a while -- in this case Auburn. But he's also interested in Florida, Miami and Southern Cal. He plans to take all five official visits.
Top under the radar commitsNot surprisingly, Louisville has had a banner year of recruiting in Florida and while
Calvin Pryor (Port St. Joe, Fla./Port St. Joe) won't get the headlines of some of the Cardinals' other major recruits the 6-1, 190-pounder was a high priority recruit for head coach Charlie Strong for over a year. I have always been impressed by the size and physical nature of South Carolina commit
Jordan Montgomery (Groveland, Fla./South Lake). Montgomery might be a bit of a safety/linebacker hybrid but he's a heck of a football player and will do whatever is asked of him at the next level.
