| You can officially take Florida off of Austin Nichols list now.
Guess that means its ok to bring in Nichols and Hubbs for the Florida game now. |

I'm actually pretty surprised that they took his committment this early and didn't wait to see how a couple of the other guys they were in on played out.
I'm glad they took him though, as I posted above that should absolutely eliminate Florida for Nichols. | |

Rimmer's a great get for UF don't get me wrong, i just think its nothing but great news for UT. | |

| Good pick-up for us. Rimmer has said that he's not concerned with immediate playing time, so it's a good fit considering how much interior depth we'll have in his first few seasons. This does basically eliminate Florida for Nichols; though, which is definitely good news for Tennessee. We won't take another post unless Randle wants to commit (which is a long shot anyways), and if that's the case, Donovan will have to find room.
Rimmer wouldn't affect us for Hubbs, though. We still have one scholarship left, which we'll probably use on a wing. Our chances to get Hubbs were extremely slim before Rimmer committed, and they're just as slim now. There are plenty of other good wings out there who are interested in Florida, however, like Isaac Hamilton. He'll be visiting the weekend of the LSU football game. | |

| I think Hubb is still in play but this pretty much closed the door on Austin. | |
