Well according to espn.com, Mike Rosario has chosen Florida over a list of other high profile schools. Link: sports.espn.go.com/new-york/news/story?id=5113471Which leads me to the question, WHY? I mean I truly cannot see a scenario where he and Kenny Boynton can coexist and I certainly cannot see a scenario where they dont play together because that would mean Boynton leaves after his sophomore season. So in essence, to start 2011-12, their backcourt would be Irving Walker (SR), Kenny B (JR), Mike Rosario (JR), and Young Rivers (FR). I wouldnt want my gem coming in learning the ropes from those CHUCKERS. Also, UF seems to attract a lot of attention from transfers in addition to having quite a few defections of their own. His decision to go there has me somewhat baffled.. |

Brad Beal is already committed in the class of 2011...top 10 player in the country at SG.
Also, Austin Rivers decommitted, I don't expect him to end up at Florida when all is said and done...will probably go to Duke.
Boynton will likely go pro after next year. Whether he's ready or capable doesn't matter...he's had himself pegged as an NBA player for so long, he'll take his 16-20 ppg average next season straight to the NBA. Frankly, I'm surprised Boynton didn't declare this year.
So, Rosario will be in a backcourt with a senior Walker and a freshman Beal...pretty good backcourt that should have an easy time coexisting with 80 minutes per game to play with.

I didnt know Rivers had officially decommitted. I thought he was just staying with the verbal but would entertain other schools. Also, I know what KB is thinking, but there is no way he should feel he is ready for the nba as a WAY undersized 2-guard, with a below mediocre jump shot, and mediocre handles. I just cant see him bolting. He will not be a first round lock next year. |

I guess hifi must be on his annual trek through the Everglades. Good guess ... actually, I was on vacation last week, but no, not in the everglades. I don't really know what really is in the everglades other than Jimmy Buffett's house on the winding rivers. Of course he immediately fought for deed restrictions and the sort after he "had his." Classic ridiculous thinking: "I've got mine! You should be ashamed for wanting yours!" But I digress. As for Rosario, from the relatively limited stuff I have heard, I think he's a decent kid and will hopefully represent the orange and blue well. As for Boynton, I just don't know what to think. Our backcourt for the next couple of years is a real question mark. In Rivers and Beal, we have a tremendous recruiting class already, if they both come to Florida. Theoretically, if they both come and Boynton, Walker and Rosario are all on the team, then that would be a pretty talented and deep backcourt. On the other extreme, if Boynton leaves and Rivers decides to go elsewhere, then a Senior Walker along with a Junior Rosario and a freshman stud in Beal would be a great start to a backcourt, but we would still be needing another playre or two. Then again, we haven't had real depth at the guard spot for quite sometime. Even in our back-to-back years, we were very fortunate in the injury/suspension/transfer department. We haven't really had depth in the backcourt since the 2000 season. |
