Mitchell heads to Florida for a redo of his super senior season. He played in 39 games over his first 4 seasons with the Buckeyes (2018-to-2021). Mitchell used his extra COVID year to return in 2022, but missed time due to injury and only played in 4 games, allowing him to take a redshirt.
Mitchell played in 12 games for OSU in 2021, making 8 starts as a team co-captain. He was sixth on the team in tackles with 45, including 4.5 for loss. For his career, Mitchell has 63 tackles, including 7 for loss, and a pass breakup.
Listed at 6-2, 239, Mitchell is originally from Virginia Beach, Virginia. Mitchell is Florida’s third defensive addition through the transfer portal for the 2023 squad, joining Louisville DL Caleb Banks and Memphis DL Cam’Ron Jackson.
Welcome to Gator Nation.
Might be putting a team together for next year after all.
LISTEN UP, Y’ALL REALLY WANT THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS DUDE???? Okay I’m going to tell you like it or not! I’ve never feared to speak the the truth. READ MY WRITING!!!!!!! Pretty decent pickup!!!!
PS. Take that gators!!!!!!! LOL
Negan
Look who’s maybe coming back….
RADIO QUOTE….
” I’ve discussed coming back to Florida with Billy Napier. He has offered me a fair deal to either join as co-DC or DC in case they have an opening soon. It appears the guy they have now who’s name ill leave off the air. Apparently is either getting some NFL interest or is interested in the NFL. Billy Napier has something going and I enjoyed my time at Florida. Billy & I go way back. ”
Todd Grantham radio podcast interview segment….
No way. He would burn the last of the fanbase’s goodwill with a dumb move like that.
Glad to have him for sure !
This looks like a very good one. 0.9771 on 247 and a former team co-captain, which suggests some senior leadership value add.
Size, experience and hunger. Looks like a good addition by Napier and we ain’t done yet. So far our best players have been transfers and recruits brought by Napier.
Yet there are some so called Gatos that are talking sheet about Napier on other teams’ articles
Wonder what the ever-brilliant Lakelife has to say about this, now that he and wonder boy Negan are joined at the hip.
It should be soiling our page shortly with its infinite wisdom.
Read further below I’m here, was busy
Conforming with non-conformity with less than an objective mind is not a good look.
Another good sized athlete for the middle of the defense. I guess running through the Gator defense will be a little harder next season.
Another very nice addition. Welcome to the Gator Nation!
I would comment but I have a natty to go win….nice pick up , Mitchell for Heisman
Go get that natty! SEC! SEC!
Best of luck to the dawgs humper.. that train down in Athens is looking like bama 2.0 at this point
Appreciate you GF8115, I’ll try to have my boys win this one for you, happy NY…Mike While won his 10th game already btw, thanks for sending hi our way. 10th place in the SEC is within reach this year…
Glad he is in Athens … he is doing a nice job for you guys I must admit …
Hurry up and send Negan to ask for that extension and multi million $ buy out
You’ll be playing?
Not likely, but he may get to hump a few legs in the celebration.
That’s good guys. Ol humpy is dusting off that helmet and getting fired up.
Amazing that the Gators had a not too good season, have the world record for players transferring out, some of the most impatient fans and Coach Billy can still get players to come on down to Hogtown. Looking forward to the next few years and hope “ugagatorlakelobsterdawgbuttsniffer” is still around to eat some humble pie.
Tailwhip your next comment got me rolling in the aisle. Thanks whipper !!!!

Took me a while to respond I was busy reading billy boys latest book “Cry Me a River”
It’s his latest novel about how he doesn’t have his guys and he is explaining how he’s having to learn basic offensive play calling 101. Billy had nothing to do with this guy transferring it has to do with NIL. I say Florida wins 5 games next season with billy at the helm what say ye ????
You are not too far off, the early O/U line from Vegas is 5.5
I see McNeese, Charlotte, Vandy and possibly Arky in the swamp…flip a coin with MIZ and FSU, you are probably right G8rLake…5 seems to be about right
“Billy had nothing to do with this guy transferring it has to do with NIL”
Everything has do do with NIL you dumbass, but it starts with the coaching staff reaching out to the prospective player. What a stupid thing to say
Was the “you dumarse” part really necessary, palley? Just into a new year and you’re blowing all your new year’s resolutions in the first week? Not a good look bro…oh wait, I just dissed on Alachua County DC, my bad bro…carry on!
Take a mental note of this cause I don’t & won’t say it often, Humper you are right. Dumbass was unnecessary.
My apologies, we should all strive to do better
I agree, dumarse!
JK, well said palley…
You guys crack me up…lol.
Oh, btw, if anyone runs into Doc please let him know I would like to borrow his shiny new truck in customized GEORGIA colors for the ride out to the Rose Bowl…Go Leghumpers!
You’re welcome bro. Gator fans are always ready to provide solace, encouragement and levity to the scarred and traumatized puppy fans who can’t get enough of everything Gator even while their team finally has reached the promised land after four decades of aimlessly wandering in the wastelands.
Word to the wise, enjoy your time at the top while you can, next thing you know you’ll be waiting another 40 years.
BTW, doc is in the corner, in time out and we won’t let him out until next season starts or until he gets a custom paint job for his new ride
Word to the wise, enjoy your time…
Absolutely. the only constant in time is change…and I will admit, I gave up on my pup’s chances not once but twice last Saturday night, how SB4 didn’t win the Heisman is beyond me…
Have to agree on SB4, Humper. Seems there’s a lot of that going on these days, making one wonder if politics aren’t the root cause.
In other sports news, you and Cojones will be respectively unhappy and happy to know that while in the penalty box I used my time wisely – an Earl Schieb 99-dollar paint job cures a lot of ills….including brain cramps!
Now if Lakelife will just try that for his menstrual cramps ………….
Hey man can I take credit for shaming you into spending those $99? I mean I brought it up before you announced the deed was done
An Earl Schieb 99-dollar paint job?
What did you have them do, paint the letters of the Alachua County Detention Center in blue and orange on the back tailgate?
Funny how there was SO MUCH controversy on the Voice this year because all 4 finalists were white and all 4 battling for elimination were people of color (even though all these years I thought white was a color, too), and yet not a bit of controversy when the winner and first runner up in the Heisman were people of color (and white was not a people of color). I hated root cause analysis in school, doc. Funny I made my livelihood performing it…
Hump, I don’t believe there will be anyone at the Rose Bowl. My understanding is that the game is at SoFi Stadium. Take your swim trunks.
Aww cr@pola…I knew these front row 50 yard line seats at face value looked too good to be true! Never mind about the truck, Doc…unless…..
Anyone know where my friend N8rG8r is? If you see him Nash, please tell him I have a great deal on 4 tickets to the Natty game…
You ADMIT watching the voice…
That’s the biggest controversy.
Smitty is right man. You also watch The View?
You know you can relate to delandman, he also watches both shows
I’m a Blake Shelton fan, what can I say? This is his last season so probably mine as well…
BTW, showing up at the Rose Bowl for that game is hilarious. Could only happen to you
Like I said, Cojones, the shame is never-ending. And the paint job, by the way, is already peeling! Next time, MAACO.
Or the auto body shop at Alachua County Detention Center, whichever is nearest.
Dang, that really sucks

****crickets****
Care to reach out there and beat Matt pos Hayes in giving us your “way to early” Win-Loss prediction for UF, smitty? oh, and happy ny to you sir…I say 6
Happy New Year my man Legs! I hope you and the family enjoyed the holiday season.
Well, my prediction is 15-0 Natty champs. We beat Colorado 62-10…Shadeur Sanders throws 5 pick 6s, and Mertz wins the Heisman…and breaks Joe Burrows passing records…and Tebow’s rushing TD record…rewriting the LSU offense’s records.
****Both Matty & I were both celebrating, excessively I may add, and thus the ying and yang predictions.
But hey, Galake has us going (-1)-16…actually losing so bad that we go into the red…
Unlike Matt pos Hayes and his trusty sidekick Connor’s way to early predictions…your’s are actually entertaining to read smittyg8r, well played…lol
8 is the ceiling, 4 is the floor. Much less a hybrid team anymore.
I likes. I am looking fwd to Spring Ball…
I’d go but for the peeling paint on the truck. Maybe Nash will drive?
Doc, too far. American has a nonstop flight Austin to Jax. 90-minute drive to Gainesville for the spring game. I’m confident we can rent a non-red and gray car.
It is a long way from Salado/Austin but think of all the Krystal cheeseburgers we’ll gobble down on the way out there once we hit Mobile. It’ll make old Leeland proud and besides we’ll be constipated the entire weekend, thus eliminating other stops along the way as well as looking for latrines once we get there.
Seriously though, I’m up for flying into Jax. Don’t need to rent a car as an old friend in Ponte Vedra is going as well and he’s offered a place to stay on the beach. Do you have the date yet?
Doesn’t appear to have been announced yet.
Glad to see they are adding to the defense! Looking forward to seeing what the new guys can do.
I think the defense has also been loaded up in the ’23 recruiting class, and some of those guys will probably start or at least burn redshirts. Hoping all that consistent inconsistency will be old news by September.
When you finish the season at rock bottom Neal, there’s only one way to go next season.
And that, my friend, is the definition of Positive Disintegration. Other than that, psychology psucks.
By the way, you up for the O&B game this year? If Kevin ever answers his email, I’m trying to see if he might also, as well as Daz.
Sounds like a fine outing, if it can be organized. I’m back in St. Louis now, but am always up for a trip to Florida.
No doubt StL…only one way up from Vegas!
Hopefully, the old tag-line is true Smitty and “what happened in Vegas will stay in Vegas!” Yikes!!!
and yet…
2008
Well thankfully, we have a ways to go …what 27 more years, give or take to match the doggy doggs chip vacuum?
Yep, 2008 was a great year!
