Gator defensive back Marco Wilson announces his plans for the 2020 season
Good news Gator fans, Marco Wilson is returning for another season in Gainesville.
Florida’s outstanding redshirt sophomore cornerback had a decision to make following his latest season suiting up for the Gators but Wilson still has much he wants to accomplish in Gainesville before he sets his sights on the NFL.
Wilson finished last season with 36 tackles and three interceptions, both career highs during his college career. This news is even more important for Todd Grantham’s defense as CJ Henderson had already declared early for the 2020 NFL Draft.
Now with Wilson returning, Florida will not have to replace both cornerbacks in the lineup earlier than anticipated.
Wilson announced the news with the following Twitter post:
I will be returning to the University of Florida for another year. Our team has a lot of goals that we are still working to accomplish and I would love to be a part of that experience. I cannot wait to get back to work with my brothers for this upcoming season.š Jeremiah 29:11 pic.twitter.com/mluvlsarps

Boy we might mess around and see ATL next yr.
Mullen is fantastic at getting guys to come back next up Toney
Good luck with that. Lol. Go Dawgs!!!
Yall beat us by a td and your 2 elite tackles gone why is such a crazy idea we beat u in yr 2 if u dont get bs catches that set up easy TDs
Why yall think your so much better? Year 1 goes out the window Mac beat kirby beat kirby by 14 his first yr
Just curious why UF is so LOL worthy cuz if u got same OC and WR I like our chances
Both suck and proved so last yr
WR coach sorry but but I saw little improvement all yr
I didnāt know yāall were scheduled to play Ga Tech in Atl. I donāt even see them on your schedule at all.
Finally something funny and not “gayturds” “mullet” and “24-17”. Truly refreshing sir!
Marco Elam Jahari would be my guess as top 3 next yr
Jahari Rogers being an early enrollee along with Pouncey get them boys ready early
Torrence too at Safety
Jahari just a fantastic athlete like CJ and switched from QB to CB his sr season like it was nothing. Gonna be hard to keep him off the field
If we can find someone to fill Greenard’s twitch & Reece’s leadership the “D” should be awesome
Chatfield Bogle Diabate Wingo etc we str8 we getting after the QB
Oh ya and zach Carter Kyree Slaton coming back
Dexter Lee Goods
Man we upgrading so much mac recruiting on d was garbage
I hope this means Dean wonāt be seeing the field much next year.
Me too
Or better yet, letās up he has a Gardner-Johnson type awakening.
*hope
Just curious why Dean doesn’t get some time at safety? I mean, that’s a struggle spot for UF outside of that one cat with the long hair. Steiner is a liability everytime he lines up. Sure, he’ll make a highlight reel play every so often, but more often than not he is out of position.
Why not let Dean prove that he can’t do it as opposed to sitting him? Hes big and physical, and has shown some coverage ability. He just didn’t have fast enough hips to flip around and cover slot guys that can break routes either way.
The further away from the ball the easier it is to learn (usually)
I think a lot of Gator fans are curious how Dean would do at safety. He was actually really promising as a true freshman corner. Don’t know what happened to him this year.
Position change happened. Heās physical enough for the star role but often out of position. Safety is where he should fit
A lot of Gator fans agree with you that Dean should be moved to safety. Our safety play was pretty bad this year. Stewart regressed, Davis had his moments, and Stiner/Taylor were liabilities most of the time. I really think that Randy Russell would have been a starter this year if he didn’t have the medical issues.
This is great news as it would have been tough to replace both starting corners. Now we have Marco and Elam to start and good depth with the rest of the guys.
Marco finished the year at star. I think Burney is fast enough to play star, which could allow Marco to move back outside.
Alternatively, the incoming corners are really talented too, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see a true freshman at corner opposite Elam, with Marco at star.
I think Marco moved to star because Trey Dean was not getting it done there but we should be fine either way
Jahari Rogers maybe a perfect star
Or Tre’Vez
Jahari weighs a buck 60 soaking wet. Heāll need at least year.
Trevez is going to be starter. Kid is a ball hawk and has a game like Matt Elam
