You gotta love Richard Ash's honesty. The Pahokee defensive tackle is definitely playing the recruiting game. I caught up with the 6-foot-4, 263-pound lineman, whom Gator fans have been raving about for months, and it seems as though he loves the recruiting process.
Ash, who looks like a man-child on his video, said he grew up a Florida fan and that the orange and blue has been his favorite for a while. The Gators are so out in front for him that Ash said he's pretty much given coach Urban Meyer his pledge but is holding off on making it official until he takes care of some business. And by business, I mean actually enjoying the life of being a top recruit.
"I already told coach Meyer I'm gonna be a Gator, but free visits means I get wined and dined," said Ash, who plans to make his verbal commitment on Sept. 25.
