Incoming freshman running back Mike Blakely (out of Bradenton’s Manatee High) will transfer from UF, Will Muschamp announced on Tuesday.
He enrolled at Florida in January, but missed spring practice with a shoulder injury and surgery.
Muschamp said in a press release: "Mike has come to the conclusion that the University of Florida is not where he wants to play football. We wish him the best of luck.''
Blakely said in a press release:
“Everyone at Florida has been very supportive of me in my time here and I'm thankful for the experience that I had, but I've made a decision to continue my college football career somewhere else.''
Blakely may not have seen much action this year behind Jeff Demps, Chris Rainey, Mike Gillislee and Mack Brown and by 2012, incoming running backs Mike Davis and Matt Jones, ranked as two of the best in the South, could compete for playing time right away.
