There are six or seven spots left in Florida's 2013 class and a few needs to fill. Some of the top prospects in the nation are considering the Gators, and it would be difficult to turn them away. So GatorNation is ranking the top 12 uncommitted prospects for Florida this week, with two-a-days. Today, the top two: No. 2 and No. 1 Insider

Derek Tyson writes Insider: Four-star WR Alvin Bailey all but says he will not choose Florida, a program that has cooled its pursuit of him in recent months.
David Ching writes Insider: UGA Recruit 411: Get to know the very confident pass-grabbing UGA receiver commit Ty Smith.

Coach's Q&A Insider: Colquitt Co. head coach Rush Propst has plenty to say -- about everything -- and he sees receiver Ty Smith helping Georgia morph into a more gunslinging kind of offense.

Ching: Contracts for Richt, Grantham are not ready to be finalized.
David Ching writes Insider: Going up against Georgia's brick-wall veteran defense is daunting, but this spring it made the young, suspect O-line better, in turn helping the entire offense become more prepared for the 2012 season.

Kipp Adams writes Insider: Talented O-lineman Brandon Kublanow has long considered an offer from UGA to be a dream, but a host of other programs thought the same of him. He took his time through the recruiting process, but followed his heart Wednesday and became a Bulldog.

video Adams Insider: Super competitive, strong and intense, Kublanow will afford Georgia great versatility on the O-line. It also doesn’t hurt that his HS coach says Kublanow is the best lineman he has seen in 16 years of coaching.
