Beginning at approximately 4:25, the Gators will be holding a 15-minute open portion for media for today’s practice. Stay tuned for videos, observations and updates.

Today, UF hosted a plethora of former Gators and their families. Three will be speaking to the media shortly: TE Trey Burton, LB Brandon Siler and DL Kevin Carter

Mega-booster and Gator Guard founder Hugh Hathcock was also in attendance.

Spent some time watching multiple positions. The intensity (especially on the OL) was much higher than previously seen.

The ILB worked on tackling the padded tackling wheel. Jay Bateman’s attention to detail was evident once again, pointing out specifics as to what each player did wrong.

The OLB linebackers worked on steps and punches getting off the snap. David Reese took a vocal leadership role helping freshman Bryce Capers with his footwork.

The vets (Cox Jr, Summerall III, Reese) all had nice reps. Chief Borders had the most energy of the group.

Ricky Pearsall was working in position drills for the first time since his injury, but was still in his non-contact jersey. Big news nonetheless for the Gators.

Jalen Kitna worked directly with the QBs again. With Miller III out, the QB3 battle between him and Max Brown moves to the backup spot behind Richardson.

Adding to former players: LB James Bates was in attendance

Health news for Gator Football:

QB Jalen Kitna was back practicing in position drills after missing time due to injury. Very important with Jack Miller III out.

I also saw Ricky Pearsall (in a black non-contact jersey) working with the receivers @InsideTheGators
