Why UNF:Â
"I decided to sign to UNF because everyone made my decision easy. The coaching staff clearly showed me how much they believe in me and want me to be a part of their program. Every corner I turned there was a resource for any assistance I may need. When I left my visit, I had a gut feeling that this was my future home."
