Jadan Baugh discusses culture change under new Florida coach Jon Sumrall

Summary

At SEC Media Days on July 23, Florida running back Jadan Baugh highlighted a shift in team culture under head coach Jon Sumrall. Previously, issues within the team contributed to a declining performance during Billy Napier's regime. Baugh noted a clearer coaching structure and improved buy-in from players as key differences this season. The Gators look to build on these changes after a disappointing 2025 season where they finished 4-8. Baugh is anticipated to be a central figure in the offense, aiming for a breakout year ahead of the 2027 NFL Draft.
