The Florida Gators are gearing up for their annual Orange and Blue Spring Game, scheduled for April 11 at noon. This marks the first spring game under new head coach Jon Sumrall, who has begun implementing a culture of earning team recognition.
Sumrall's approach emphasizes that players must 'earn the logo' and the Gators name, a philosophy he's reinforcing during the early stages of offseason workouts. The spring game will conclude the 15-practice spring camp, serving as a vital opportunity for Sumrall to evaluate his roster.
With no second portal window available, Sumrall plans to extensively assess his transfer portal class, high school recruits, and retained players during camp. A key focus will be the quarterback competition between transfer Aaron Philo and redshirt freshman Tramell Jones Jr., among other positions like the offensive line and defensive line.
