Windermere cornerback CJ Bronaugh, the state-champion sprinter who committed to the Florida Gators football program on June 18 , said Sunday he wasn’t necessarily surprised by the school’s decision to fire head coach Billy Napier.

Bronaugh (6-foot-1, 170 pounds) is in the middle of his senior football season at Orange County Public Schools Independent powerhouse Windermere, where the Wolverines are 7-0 and on a 17-game winning streak.
