Cain and his mother were able to sit down with the Gators' head coach after the event and here are some of Cain's comments about meeting Muschamp.

“Mostly, they were pretty much being generous, just telling me congratulations on the commit,” Cain said. “They’re still going to recruit me hard until signing day. He mostly just kept saying, ‘It’s a long way until signing day.’ So they are going to keep coming hard at me.”

Good news for Clemson fans though - he went on to say: “It’s good that Florida still has interest in me,” he said. “But I committed to a school, so I’m 100 percent to Clemson.”

Cain is ranked as the No. 57 player nationally in the ESPN 300, and is ranked as the fifth-best receiver in the nation. He is also listed as the No. 13 player out of the state of Florida.

He is the second receiver picked up by Clemson for the 2015 cycle, along with Shadell Bell Shadell Bell
