Lake Minneola (Fla.) 2026 offensive lineman Chancellor Barclay has made three trips to the University of Flordia over the course of the last year. He first visited last summer to camp during Friday Night Lights, and left with an offer from the coaching staff. He’s also attended a game inside The Swamp, but it his most recent trip was for a Junior Day last month, and was the most comprehensive look at the UF campus as a whole that he’s gotten.
During his most recent trip, he was surprised at all the things available for the players on the team.

“It was great, Barclay said of the visit. “Really the biggest thing I saw, and not even just me but my mom, was the development of the player. Not even the physical things they can develop you with on the field, but mentally, educationally, and socially. They really have a place for everything. They have a whole building for academics and stuff. There are tutors there, and even if you don’t need them, they still have them. They have rehab areas there to keep your body right. If you ever need to talk to someone there, they have a whole program dedicated to that. Sometimes you think of a place being for just football, but Florida has anything for you that you want to take advantage of. Those are the things that really stood out to my mom. Especially the academic side, because she’s a teacher so that is something she cares about a lot.”
