John Camacho+FollowGainesville’s own DeBraun Hampton earns Gators scholarshipDeBraun Hampton, once a walk-on and DJ Lagway’s go-to receiver in high school, just landed a scholarship with the Florida Gators.

Hampton’s knack for punt returns—he’s slippery, tough to bring down, and now in the mix for a special teams role.
