Brian Poole should head into the
summer feeling good about himself and his chances to get a lot of playing time
next season for Florida.
Poole is being used at cornerback
and safety, but figures to see more time at the latter position because of his
physical attributes and Florida’s needs. Defensive coordinator D.J. Durkin showered him with praise
on more than one occasion.
Poole figures to be one of the starters at safety along with Cody Riggs. Some members of the coaching staff are predicting he can be in the same class as last year’s starting safety Matt Elam, who left early and figures to be an NFL first round draft pick this month.

In his senior year at Southeast, Poole was rated the
number two cornerback in the country and the 25th best player in the
country. He has the speed to play corner, but coaches like him at safety
because of his size (5-10, 210 pounds) and toughness.
