Gators hit the Showers, CB Valdez that is

Multiple outlets are reporting Wednesday that three-star cornerback Valdez Showers (Madison Heights, MI) has committed to the Florida Gators. The 15th commitment for the team’s 2012 recruiting class, Showers was also being heavily pursued by Auburn, Michigan, Michigan State and a number of other schools.

At just under 6’0” and approximately 180 lbs., Showers cited the University of Florida‘s academics and an opportunity to see the field early as his deciding factors.

He is the third CB recruit to commit to Florida for 2012, joining four-stars Nick Waisome (Groveland, FL) and Louchiez Purifoy (Pensacola, FL).
