Meyer and his staff had two commitments before the event, but doubled that amount within 48 hours. The foundation has been laid for another stellar class. One of the biggest news items out of the event surrounded a non-news story. The near commitment of Jersey City (N.J.) St. Peter's athlete Will Hill was the talk of many. Hill didn't participate in the festivities, but took in the atmosphere with his father.
Hill, the No. 7 prospect in the country, came close to ending the process on campus but indicated he'll take an official visit to Gainesville on Sept. 15 before he commits. With Georgia, Florida State, Ohio State and USC all on the board early with commitments from top-20 players, landing Hill will allow the Gators to keep pace.
