Kreul is from the 2026 class and is a five-star prospect, the No. 4 edge rusher and No. 4 prospect from the state of Florida via ESPN.
Florida’s 2026 class has commits from four-star quarterback Will Griffin, four-star safety Kaiden Hall, four-star offensive guard G’Nivre Carr, and three-star defensive tackle Jamir Perez.

Griffin was named to the Elite 11 Finals roster back in May. The event showcases the top quarterbacks from around the country.
Friday’s visit was Kreul’s third with the Gators. He had previously taken unofficial visits in March and in July of 2022.
The state of Florida holds significance for the Kreul family, as his mother has ties to the Florida State Seminoles, having graduated from the ACC program.
Napier and company have been pursuing another five-star prospect from the 2026 class. Florida was named a finalist for five-star safety Jireh Edwards.
Florida opens the 2025 season against Long Island on August 30.
