Sumrall Vows Fast Florida Revival After Spring Game
Spring-game flashes came with a blunt warning about an unsettled offensive line.
Overview
- Florida’s new coach, energized by a reported 47,100 in The Swamp following Saturday’s Orange and Blue game, said he intends to “wake the beast up” and win quickly.
- The offense showed long-missing punch as Aaron Philo and Tramell Jones Jr. hit multiple deep touchdowns, highlighted by Wake Forest transfer Micah May Jr.’s 75-yard score and 122-yard day.
- Defensive depth surfaced in the scrimmage with UCLA transfer Kayne Clark recording five solo tackles and newcomers DJ Coleman and Cam Dooley snagging interceptions.
- Sumrall called the offensive line “nowhere near settled” and said the unit needs a great summer under strength coach Rusty Whitt to give the team a chance.
- With roster gaps still evident, he will meet one-on-one with all 111 players, said he would welcome a spring transfer window, and limited receiver Dallas Wilson to safeguard his return from foot surgery.
