From the Gainesville Sun:
Following his first visit to Gainesville for Friday Night Lights, the Rivals 100 prospect out of Chase High School in Forest City, N.C., said he no longer has any favorites. “Yeah, they moved up,” Watkins said of the Gators, who are now even with Clemson, South Carolina and Alabama. Of all the visits Watkins has made during his recruiting process, no place compared to his UF trip. “It's at the top,” he said. Watkins also talks about the possibility of playing at Florida with his friends

For UF to gain his verbal, Ledbetter believes he will be the determining factor. “What it's gonna take is me to get on his nerves about it,” Ledbetter said. “I'm trying to get the best class we can down to Florida and I'm confident I can.” As a junior, Watkins had 50 tackles, 29 tackles for loss and 14 sacks. In 10 games on offense he caught 11 passes for 237 yards while rushing for 270 yards on 65 carries. As a sophomore, he started at offensive tackle. Averaged 20 points and 10 rebounds while playing center for his high school.
