Buford's Pridemore picks Gators

By Staff reports
According to reports on Rivals.com, Buford standout T.J. Pridemore has given his verbal commitment to play college football at the University of Florida.

Pridemore, a 6-1, 228-pound linebacker, made the choice while visiting the school this weekend.

Rated the 28th best inside linebacker in the nation, Pridemore told Rivals.com that he will get an opportunity at H-back and linebacker when he arrives in Gainesville, Fla.

Now the question is whether his high school teammate Omar Hunter will join him in The Swamp.

Hunter, a star defensive tackle, has been recruited heavily by the Gators and is currently undecided after recently rescinding his verbal commitment to Notre Dame.

Hunter is due to visit Florida this coming weekend, though he has also scheduled a visit to the University of Georgia and lists the Bulldogs, along with USC and Florida, as his top three schools.

Both Hunter and Pridemore helped the Wolves to the 2007 Class AA title, as Buford stormed to a 15-0 record, winning its semifinal and championship games by a combined 98-0 score.
