Gators head coach Billy Napier helped lead the Florida football team to wins over LSU, Ole Miss, and Florida State to close out the regular season with three straight wins. Now, Florida will face Tulane in the Gasparilla Bowl after a 7-5 season. But Napier’s seat was still warm in 2025, with the fan base hoping the football program would enter the College Football Playoff discussion when the tournament expands to 12 teams.
That means Napier will have to work hard in the college football transfer portal in the coming weeks to shore up a Florida State football squad that has lagged behind rivals like Georgia and Tennessee. Who will be the top recruiting targets for Florida football players going forward, and how big a step can the Gators take in 2025?

Florida Football Transfer Portal News, Previews
A clear area of focus for Napier during this transfer portal period is the secondary, and one of Florida’s primary transfer portal targets was already on campus this weekend. Zechariah Poyser led Jacksonville State to the Conference USA championship as a redshirt freshman this season, recording 75 tackles, eight pass breakups and three interceptions.
Poyser entered the transfer portal on Monday with the assumption that his head coach (Rich Rodriguez) would head to West Virginia. That happened Thursday, and Poyser has already visited LSU, Auburn and Florida State this week alone, so his recruitment is moving quickly.
He has experience playing safety and nickel, which should help him think he can hit the field right away for the Gators, and was a high school teammate of 2025 Florida signee Vernell Brown III. The four-star wide receiver signed with UF earlier this month and hopes to give the Gators an edge along with Poyser.
