ORLANDO -- Florida defensive end commit Antonneous Clayton arrived at the Under Armour All-America Game festivities on Monday afternoon ready to roll.

He knows he'll have work to do this week, and he wants to show what he can do.

"I just came out here to play against the best on best," Clayton said. "Just going out here to compete, hopefully get a starting spot and make a name for myself."

As far as recruiting other players for Florida, Clayton plans to let his play do the talking.

"Actions speak louder than words, so if I kind of go off in the game or in practice, I'm going to kind of draw attention to Florida."

Clayton is dead set on the Gators after finding what he was looking for in Gainesville. He's not wavering at all, and he already can't wait to get to campus.

He won't be one of Florida's several early enrollees, but he won't let that be an excuse for him either. Only motivation.

"As far as defense, Alex McCalister is leaving so that spot is open. But with me, Jordan Smith and Jachai Polite, there's going to be a lot of competition to fight for that spot. I may not be an early enroll, but at the end of the day, the best guy is going to play.

"I love competition, because it brings out your true colors. You may be all talk and then when I get in your head, you might flip out just like Odell (Beckham). Just like (Josh) Norman did with Odell."

Oklahoma and Florida State have remained in contact with the four-star prospect, but the 6-foot-3, 218-pound defensive end basically said they're just spinning their wheels.

"As you guys have seen in my (social media) posts, I'm only taking one official, and that's to Florida," Clayton said. "They want me to come on the 19th and the 23rd, but I haven't decided yet.

"As far as personnel-wise as far as the coaches and the players, they already showed me everything I wanted to see. I'll just use this visit just to see the dorms and everything. As far as getting that emotional feel for them, I already have that already."

Clayton was impressed by Florida's 2015 season.

"They had a great season. As far as the offense with Treon, we're going to be better next year. That's what they've been telling me, 'just stay with me.'"

By all accounts, he has every intention of doing just that. He recently hosted defensive line coach Chris Rumph and defensive coordinator Geoff Collins on an in-home visit, and the visit only reinforced his decision to go to Gainesville.

"It went really good," Clayton said. "They were just talking to me about enjoy your high school year, because you never get them back. They focused less on football and more on life. That's really something you should really focus on when you're getting recruited by a school."

Simply put, no other school has been able to grab Clayton's attention like Florida.

That's the reason he'll be suiting up in orange and blue next fall.

"Out of all the schools I went to -- Auburn, Tennessee, Alabama, Florida State, Clemson, etc. -- those schools I just really didn't feel like I fit there," he said. "Then Florida, it just really didn't feel like I went anywhere. It just feels like home."

The 247Composite, an industry-generated recruiting ranking, rates Clayton as the No. 106 overall player in the country. He also checks in as the No. 10 defensive end nationally and the No. 11 player in the state of Georgia.
