4-star QB Dylan Lonergan profile

4-star WR Hykeem Williams bullish on UF

Billy Napier did add three-star quarterback Max Brown in his transitional 2022 recruiting class, but there’s still pressure on the first-year coach to strike big in the signal-caller department after getting a full year to recruit. One of those options is four-star Brookwood (Georgia) quarterback Dylan Lonergan.

A standout athlete in two sports, football and baseball, Lonergan has narrowed down his options to just five schools and Florida made the cut. The Gators appear to be the weakest link as of now with official visits scheduled with three other programs in his top five, but that could change if Napier is able to get Lonergan on campus.

Being able to play baseball in college is a big part of his decision, and there’s no guarantee Kevin O’Sullivan makes it work. Miguel Mitchell, a defensive back signee in the 2022 class, is expected to play both sports though, so it’s likely an option if the football team wants him that badly.

Still, things have been relatively quiet between Florida and Lonergan since he named them in his top five and the recruitment of Jaden Rashada might be a sign that the Gators are moving away from him. A decision is expected to come in July, so Florida would need to get him on campus quickly to jump back into the conversation.

Lonergan is a consensus top-10 quarterback, but only ESPN has him outside of the Nos. 8 and 9  range. That bumps his composite grade up enough to make him a top-100 player, and the On3 Consensensus ranked him higher than any individual outlet. A two-way player, Lonergan’s 90-mph fastball…
