Florida is on the verge of what could be the biggest National Signing Day in program history.
With the Gators in the running for five-star prospects Byron Cowart, Martez Ivey, and CeCe Jefferson, and looking to add or more 10 commitments to a 2015 recruiting class currently consisting of just 16 players, the impact of this day on Jim McElwain's program will be seismic. And the announcement schedule sets up for Florida to get news on a constant basis, beginning as early as 7 a.m.
Here's the full 2015 National Signing Day announcement schedule (as we know it) for Florida targets; times and prospects are subject to change. (Italics under "Schools" indicates current commitment, if any.)
