  "account": "Florida football's linebackers are set to undergo a transformation under the guidance of former Kentucky linebacker Jon Sumrall, who led the Wildcats in tackles in 2004. Sumrall is joined by returning junior linebacker Myles Graham and new defensive coordinator Brad White, whose 3-4 scheme at Florida will enable linebackers to excel in both tackling and creating plays in space. Graham has already impressed with 106 career tackles and 9.5 tackles for loss in his first two seasons, while Jaden Robinson and Aaron Chiles have also made significant contributions. Head coach Jon Sumrall's emphasis on speed, violence, and communication will be crucial for the team's success. With potential rookies Ty Jackson and Myles Johnson stepping up as depth, Florida's linebackers have much to look forward to in the upcoming 2026 season.",
