Titus Bullard , a class of 2024 edge rusher from Tampa (Fla.) Berkeley Prep and the son of former Gators defensive end and superstar professional wrestler Titus O’Neil , announced his commitment to Florida on Tuesday.
“Thanks to my coaches, teammates and fam. Helped me become the person I am,” Bullard wrote via social media. “All Glory to God, He is major. Thanks to him, I am now a Florida Gator.”
Bullard will join the Gators as a preferred walk-on, electing to align with his father’s alma mater over FBS offers from Liberty, Toledo, Buffalo and Georgia Southern.
The 6-foot-2, 205-pound Bullard recorded 117 total tackles with 39 for loss and 17.5 sacks over three seasons as a consistent varsity contributor at Berkeley Prep.
He posted a sack and five tackles during his freshman year, foreshadowing a productive career at the prep level.
Bullard’s father, whose real name is Thaddeus Bullard, attended Florida from 1996-2000. He saw action in 44 career contests, including three starts, at defensive end during his time in Gainesville before cashing in on his collegiate success with a four-year stint in the Arena Football League from 2003-2007.
