Florida Gators Shock Rivals with Stunning Commitment from Nation’s Top IOL, Beating Ohio State and Alabama

His commitment defines a breakthrough moment for head coach Jon Sumrall, as Hiller becomes the highest-ranked recruit to join the Gators since Sumrall took over the program. He is also Florida’s first five-star offensive lineman since Martez Ivey in 2015 and only the second top-10 overall offensive line recruit to commit to the Gators in the modern recruiting era, alongside DJ Humphries (2012).

Hiller’s decision was heavily influenced by offensive line coach Phil Trautwein, who previously recruited him while at Penn State and offered him his first FBS opportunity in May 2023. Florida extended an offer on Dec. 12, shortly after Trautwein joined the staff, and quickly became a serious contender. Hiller visited Gainesville several times, including for Junior Day on Jan. 24 and a spring practice and scrimmage in late March, where he built strong relationships with the coaching staff and players.
