Speaking of 4 star DL:

Madison (Ala.) James Clemens five-star defensive end LaBryan Ray has completed his final official visit. The Florida Gators were the last school to get the 6-foot-4, 260-pound prospect on campus before he announces his decision on National Signing Day.


“It was great,” Ray said of his trip to Gainesville. “It was good getting to interact with the players and the coaches. I had a good time.”


Ray spoke with head coach Jim McElwain before departing town.


“His message was early playing time,” Ray said. “You know, he really cared about [his team], and it’s a family. That’s really important to me.”


The elite pass rusher said his player hosts were freshmen offensive tackle Jawaan Taylor and running back Lamical Perine.


“They just told me you got to come here and work to get early playing time. That’s really important. That sticks out to me, and the coaches really care about them a lot.”


Ray said he is down to “Ole Miss, Alabama, Tennessee and Florida.” Did this most recent trip to UF help the Gators?


“It did,” Ray answered. “They’re very high up. It’s definitely going to be a hard decision.”


The nation’s No. 26 overall prospect in the 2017 class, according to the 247Sports Composite, plans to let college coaches know his decision the night before signing day. He will then go public with his choice on Wednesday.
