Florida Gators 4-Star Commit Peyton Miller REVEALS Why He Believes in Jon Sumrall!

We spoke earlier this evening about the future of Florida football and how it needs to start building within the trenches, whether it be the portal, whether it be recruiting. Well, we were fortunate to sit down with one of those key pieces, which is going to be from the recruiting class of 2027, the number one center in the country. Peyton Miller sat down with us while we stood next to each other. And if you were discretion advised, I was sitting down and he was standing. So if you see the discrepancy in height, that is why. So no need to panic there. I'm not that small. He's just a very big man. But we talk about it, and he talks to us why he chose John Sumrall and why he's a believer in John and Coach John and in Coach Troutwine and getting this football program back to the direction it needs to head into. Here's some more from Peyton Miller. Be sure to smash the Like button and subscribe, and I'll see you boys in the next one. Look at this guy. Did you cut the mullet off? No, I just got to fluff it up. You got to fluff it up. I was like, I need a rattle live, my guy. Number one center in the country, number one mullet in the state of Texas. Yes, yes. Peyton, welcome to the show, my man. We've had you on before. Pleasure to see you. You're much bigger than you were on live. I felt like that was more toe-to-toe with you. It's a little intimidating, but welcome on the show, my man. How does it feel? How many times have we been to the Swamp? How many times does this count? This is game two for me. Okay, what other game would you go to? I went to FAU opening week. Electric Knight. Yes, sir. Incredible night. I think we're going to feel the same kind of vibes here tonight. Yes, sir. So what are we looking for, man? This offensive line's been a little lackluster. I know you've been watching it. I know Trout Wine's probably talking to you off the scenes here. How do we feel about what you've seen thus far? Do you expect some things to turn around in this offensive line? Yeah, no, for sure. I have full faith in Trott that he's going to turn these guys around. You know, he hasn't even been able to get a recruiting class in here yet. And people... You know, fans are very, they want immediate success, so it's hard to see when the offensive line gets bashed as an offensive lineman, because that's committed here, of course, because they just, you know, those are your guys, so, but no, I have full faith and trust that he's going to turn this group around, and you know, that's going to help a lot when me, Max, and Elijah get here, and hopefully we can add this new addition that's on his OV today, and... So, I feel like... Who do we got today? We have Marino Fisher, I think is his name. Three-star kid, just decommitted from Virginia. He's on his OV today. Big offensive lineman. Okay. Offensive tackle. But no, I feel like a big turning point for this O-line will definitely be this recruiting class coming in because I feel like we're just full of violence, and that's what you need up front. So, I feel like we're going to have a big turnaround there for sure. It is interesting to hear you talk about, again, fans. We want instant success as a recruit. Yeah. Your perception of this has to be a little bit different. Yeah, absolutely. Right? I'm understanding there are growing pains of, like, a realistic expectation of, like, you love Trout, you committed to Trout and the Florida Gators outside of how this season would go. And I think sometimes as fans, we get emotional, like, oh, if we don't do well, maybe your recruit might get discouraged. But you understand you committed well before the results because, hey, I understand, like, what we're trying to build here at Florida, right? Yeah, absolutely, yeah. Yeah, so when I committed, everybody was like, Oh, that's a big question. Like, Summerall hasn't proved himself in the SEC. Trott's first year coming back to Florida. You know, there's a lot of question marks to be answered. But, you know, week by week, day by day, everybody's starting to say, man, you made a great decision. Every time they see a press conference come out of Summerall, you made a great decision, you know. And, you know, I love that because I knew, you know. Not everybody sees Summerall on a personal level. Like, everybody just sees his personal, his press conferences. Everybody sees Trott's press conferences. So they don't get to get him on a personal level or, like, get an actual relationship with him. And when you have that relationship, you can tell that these guys are successful people, and they're going to be successful on the field. And what I already knew when I met Summerall for the first time and I got to rekindle my relationship with Trott coming from Penn State, I was like, I already know these guys are going to be successful here. Why not make it official already and play for these guys? Trot's one of the best in the business. Summerall's proved himself in many other conferences. And you can't turn down playing for Summerall. That guy's electric. Hell yeah. Yeah, this is gonna be good One last thing. One thing I've always found intriguing is because you're committing again. What we call it proof of concept on the talk part of things, right? Like, can he show what they've talked about? So I've always wondered, like, hey, how was your conversation before the guys hit the field? What was the expectation? How did Trout and John present this football team to you? And has what you've seen thus far, although maybe the scoreboard may not always tell you the entire result that we would like as fans, but what you have watched, has it supported what you were— Quote-unquote sold in the beginning of the recruiting process. Absolutely, yeah. You know, Trott's main thing was, you know, this is going to be a violent O-line. And it might not be entirely right away because, you know, he had to go scramble and get some kids out of the portal to, you know, finish his O-line. But, no, I feel like absolutely what he's put on, there's definitely flashes of what he wants this O-line to be. Amen. And what this team wants to be. There's definitely flashes. Like, you could say Ole Miss game, like, flashes. And these guys, they're going to be great. They just, people don't understand that they've only had however many months, if, like, not even a year under Summerall yet. And they've already been doing this. And everybody's top, they were already top. Whatever, top 25 in their first year, and they're doing this, beating Ole Miss. And, you know, I see that. I see the tape every week. You know, Coach will send us clips and everything, and I'll just be like, this is the guy I want to play for. Like, I don't have any doubt in my mind that, you know, I can't come in here and we can't be a great team. So, you know, I just see what Summerall has done and what Troutwine has done, and, you know, I already know we're going to be a great squad when we can Come out here and do our thing. Congratulations, boys and girls, because this show is brought to you by PrizePicks. And I congratulate you because you finally made it to college football season, boys and girls. Yes, that is right.

Then we've got, of course, King Miller with USC getting some rush touchdowns. I know we don't like FSU around these parks, but I think Ashton Daniels is going to use a little legs in this upcoming week for some nice football to get him more in his rushing yards.

Use the great features that PrizePicks has to offer. PrizePicks. It is good to be around. Hell yeah. Yeah, you obviously committed really early. You were one of, what, the first five, six commits? Yeah, I think so. This class has completely changed since when you were on the show last, right after you committed. We've had 20 new guys. How has the class rounded out? What do you think of the class? Because at the end of the day, this is your class. This is your group. It's going to be that way until you leave here. What is the mindset coming in as a class? For you guys to make an impact early. Because this past class kind of struggled to make an impact their freshman year. Yeah, absolutely. I think this class, like, we're very close. Like, we text probably every day in our group chat. Like, we're always keeping up with each other. And, you know. We've had some great additions, like flipping Easton Royal from Texas, huge. That was a big thing because a lot of people were giving me crap about not going to Texas because I'm from Texas, but then you would flip a guy that's going to Texas from a Florida school that's now going to Florida, and that's a big thing for us. I feel like just making an immediate impact, we have to show up on day one, not in a cocky mindset in any way, but we've just got to show up and be competitive. We've got to push these guys that are on the roster already, Compete with these guys and, you know, just push them to become better and then we'll all fall into place for sure. But I feel like just coming in here and just, you know, pushing these guys, being competitive and, you know, just creating relationships with the teammates that are already here as we were doing like right now. And I think we're going to be a great class and this might be the class to turn around UF. Yeah, cool. I spoke to you right before this. You said you were 10-0 in high school. It seems like you're not used to losing, and your class isn't used to losing. Does it piss you off sometimes watching us not show up for a game and saying, like, feel almost FOMO, like, I wish I could get out there and help because it's not what you want it to be? Absolutely, yeah. No, like you said, I don't. I've won 10 games every single year of high school football. I won 15 my freshman year. I won 10 my sophomore year and junior year, and now we're 10-0 now. And so, like you said, I'm not used to losing. So when you go see we're projected to beat a school and then we end up losing here at UF, that kind of pisses me off. You know, like, but it's a... It's always good. It's exciting. I'm excited to get out here and help this team because I know we can do great things once everybody gets together and we get a whole year under Summerall for sure. We talk a lot about getting dogs on this football team. Stephen Harris was here earlier today. Gators. Yeah, Gators. Some killers, if you will, on this football team. Talk to me maybe about some guys on this team that you expect, including yourself, to be some killers coming out of this class in 2027 that we should be excited about. Yeah, no, you can't ignore the guys up front. Max. Number one offensive lineman in the nation across everything. You know, You know, great guy, most physical kid, nasty, boom. Elijah, he's going to be a nasty dude. You know, You know, that's up front. We needed to make a statement in the recruiting class up front. You know, Easton Royal, of course, huge player. He's going to have an immediate impact, I think. Great player. And then, of course, Davin Davidson, he kind of is the ringleader of our class, you know, because he's just the quarterback. But he brings us all together. So, you know, those guys are going to bring. You know, those guys are going to be explosive coming out, and I feel like that's going to be the class, you know, just kind of bring everything together and get everybody going, and I'm excited for that. You're enrolling early, so what is your goal within these next two months? What are you trying to work on to be ready when you get here? And then once you get here, what does Trout really emphasize, like this is what I want to get with? work on with you to help you mature faster and get on that field faster? Yeah, absolutely. No, I'm a big tape guy, so every time, you know, I can watch Harrison play center, you know, I can just watch him and see what he does on certain plays, on certain concepts, and, you know, just being able to go into my high school and practice those things, you know, by myself, because, you know, it's a big thing. I got to be ready in two months to show up in college and play and not... And be done with high school. So that's a big thing for me, just being able to watch tape and, you know, play at the speed that the SEC plays at because that's definitely going to be a shock once you get here, no doubt, because that's how it is for everybody, I feel like. But, no, that's definitely a thing I want to just carry over from high school, play fast, play physical, and just be nasty up front because that's going to shock a lot of people.
