One of South Florida's top defensive tackles, Centennial's Jay-nard Bostwick has made his college decision.

The 6-4, 291-lb. powerhouse committed to Florida on Wednesday morning, joining coach Will Muschamp and the Florida Gators.

Bostwick held offers from a multitude of Division I schools, including seven SEC programs, but whittled his options down to Florida, Miami, and Alabama in recent weeks.

Despite the Crimson Tide putting the full-court press on late in the process when head coach Nick Saban traveled to Port St. Lucie to meet with Bostwick in January, Muschamp was able to maintain steady interest from Bostwick throughout the past few months, leading up to his committment today.
