Less then 10 days ago, on National Signing Day Florida put the finishing touches on one of the top 10 classes in the nation. This weekend they will kickoff the 2018 cycle by welcoming multiple top targets on both Friday and Saturday.

Here is a closer look at some of the big names expected in.

On Friday the expected headliner of the day is Jacksonville (Fla.) Trinity Christian five-star cornerback Tyreke Johnson. The Rivals100 member has quite a few programs in the mix for his commitment, with Florida being the lone in-state option. Johnson had started to build a bond with former defensive backs coach Torrian Gray, before his departure to the NFL.
