In this episode of Locked On Gators, host Brandon Olsen addresses the latest developments regarding the Florida Gators' 2025 transfer portal recruiting class. A potential setback has emerged as quarterback DeShawn Purdie, who had committed to the Gators, may be reconsidering his decision. Olsen takes a deep dive into what this could mean for the Gators' recruitment strategy and how losing a player like Purdie could impact their quarterback depth and future plans. He explores the reasons behind Purdie’s uncertainty and whether Florida can manage to keep him in the fold or if they will need to adjust their approach. With transfer portal recruiting becoming an increasingly important part of college football, Olsen discusses the broader implications of this potential loss and what steps the Florida Gators coaching staff might take to fill the void. Additionally, he looks ahead at the Gators' other transfer portal targets and how they are navigating a highly competitive recruiting landscape in 2025.
