LATEST NEWS: A star player is leaving and its disheartening

Florida starting left guard Richie Leonard IV announced his NCAA transfer portal entry as a graduate student on Friday morning.

Leonard exits the program with one season of collegiate eligibility remaining.

“I would like to thank the University of Florida for my time there,” Leonard wrote via X. “Glad I can say I am an alumnus of this great institution . With that being said I am entering my name in the transfer portal as a grad transfer.”

Leonard signed with Florida as a consensus three-star prospect in the recruiting class of 2020, out of Cocoa (Fla.) High.

He started a pair of games in relief of injured first-team linemen in 2021 and 2022, in addition to significant rotational duties at guard in the latter season.
