The 2024 recruiting class was a dramatic one for the Florida football program, which saw its stock drop precipitously heading into the early signing period.
But alas, the Gators were able to recover, and despite being among the top schools heading into the home stretch, still finished No. 15 according to 24Sports. That also landed the Orange and Blue at No. 11 among Southeastern Conference peers in what was a loaded league in the cycle.
Nonetheless, Billy Napier and Co.’s efforts resulted in the 11th-best blue-chip ratio in the 2024 class at 63%, hauling in two five-star and 10 four-star recruits out of 19 total additions; the other seven were three-star prospects.
