Florida had been seemingly bleeding recruits recently and missing out on some key recruits to other schools. The Gators finally got some good news with the commitment of outside linebacker Nick Smith out of Orlando, Fla.

He's ranked as a three-star linebacker by 247Sports and is the No. 161 recruit in the state of Florida. He might not be the most high profile recruit the Gators will have on campus, but he does fill a huge hole on the roster and could see the field right away. The 6'3", 210-pound linebacker comes out of Dr. Phillips High School in Orlando, so he's staying pretty close to home with his commitment.
Here are some of his highlights:
