Then, just under a month later, Adeleye announced on Twitter that he was transferring from Tompkins High School in Katy (Tx.) to IMG Academy. Along with being less than three hours away from Gainesville, Adeleye is now teammates with future Gator Kamar Wilcoxson as well.

GatorsTerritory's Corey Bender caught up with Adeleye at the Rivals Camp Series event in Orlando this past Sunday to discuss his interest in Florida and his contact with the coaching staff.

"It's a good school," Adeleye said of UF. "I've got a lot of friends on the team at IMG that are looking at Florida. I got a lot of kids in the state that are here that I'm starting to build relationships with — Bryce [Langston] being one of them. It's a process. You got to get to know people and know coaching staffs."
