The Gators just got a huge pickup upfront.

Curtis Dunalp Jr., a 4-star offensive guard out of the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., announced his pledge to Florida via Twitter Tuesday. Dunlap committed on what would have been his late father’s 52nd birthday.

In March, the 6-foot-4, 368-pounder revealed a top five which included Georgia, Michigan, Arkansas and Oklahoma. The 247Sports Composite rates Dunlap as the No. 6 offensive guard, No. 39 Florida recruit and No. 202 prospect nationally for 2018. He transferred to IMG after starting at tackle for Ed White in Jacksonville, Fla.
