Several 2013 Recruits Still Undecided in Sunshine State

Imagine a 6'6", 295-pound offensive tackle running a 5.12 40-yard-dash. That has "pancake" written all over it.

Imagine playing running back and getting hit head on by a 6'5", 285-pounder still developing. "Help Cecil, Help!"

Imagine throwing to a 6'4" wide receiver with 4.57 speed and a 36" vertical jump. Even B/R recruiting guru Edwin Weathersby would be a Heisman contender.

These are just a sampling of the 11 players from the Sunshine State who are still on the board of the ESPN 150 Class of 2013.

In all, 30 Florida prospects litter the player rankings. Of those, University of Florida leads the way with nine in-state declarations. Florida State University has secured four in-state recruits and Miami (FL) three.

Signing day is down the road and recruiting coordinators from across the country are scheduling official visits for these Florida-hot commodities.
