Austin Rivers

[Mr2Bits]

What is the likelihood that we can keep Austin Rivers? He's been committed to the Gators for what seems like a few years, but now it's reported he's interested in Duke and UNC. Not sure why he would take a trip to NC if he wasn't having doubts about UF.

In spite of what's being spun on the rumor mills, I think that he's still heading to UF.

We sure could use him. I think he is one of the top ranked players in his class right now

Turns out he has decommitted from UF: http://www.gatorsports.com/article/20100408/ARTICLES/100409451/1136?Title=Rivers-decommits-from-UF

That's terrible news losing out on Rivers when he had been committed to us for so long. He says in the article that he is still "very interested" in Florida but I just don't see him coming here after he's had a taste of UNC and Duke.

 

[Mr2Bits]

Duke is now at the top of his list.

Apparently he's still open to re-committing to Florida: http://brockway.blogs.gatorsports.com/10724/austin-still-open/

I guess we all know how this ended by now...
