After landing an offer earlier in the day it didn't take long for Green Cove Springs (Fla.) Clay 2020 defensive end Josh Griffis to pull the trigger and become the first commit of the Gators 2020 recruiting class.

"I committed," Griffis said. "It's just where I live, it's home. It's home for me."

The sophomore defender was offered by area recruiter Tim Skipper upon arrival to Gainesville for the Gators hope opener against Tennessee. Shortly after landing that tender it was enough to convince the North Florida prospect to jump on board, when he let head coach Jim McElwain know the good news before the game.

"He offered me right then. I got excited and committed right then. It was my favorite team. I liked Tim Tebow and I watch CeCe Jefferson a lot."
