Dorian Finney-Smith commits to Florida

I'm not saying Finney-Smith is someone I didn't want, but I think it was pretty important that we got Thomas with the amount of time we invested in him.

I have but he said DFS wanted to go to a school where it's warm year round. That's definitely not Kentucky and Tennessee, which is why I said I wouldn't them southern schools.

If the rusted out pickups and couches on the front lawn per capita reaches a 4-1 ratio youre in the south.

STOP TALKING.
They are south. Never heard someone say Tennessee and Kentucky are not "South"

Well this isn't good news.

Ugh, you didn't even read what I said, did you? They may be considered "south" but they certainly aren't ******* warm year round.

Would have been awesome. I'm guessing that Florida was the one he wanted all along, but it was still a fun ride.

Best of luck to him. Time to go win with other guys.

As much as I wanted DFS, I'm much more happy getting Thomas and not DFS as opposed to DFS and not Thomas. For some reason, I have a really good feeling about Matt and didn't have as much of a vibe from DFS

THis is a bummer, and surprising since the buzz was on us and Memphis towards the end. Oh well, best of luck to him in 2 years.

That is too bad. Finney-Smith will do big things as a Gator. Expect to see himmin the Association down the road. At least he publically showed interest in Iowa State. That looks good!

This won't be the last time we miss on a top 25 talent. But at least we are in the discussion.

You could make an argument that Thomas is more important to the program, as he is likely a four year player, whereas DFS 1 or two.

At least those cocky ****s at L'ville don't get to Cheer for him.

Are you sure it's not Glen?

Would have been nice, but not really expected. Plus, he can't play until 2013 anyway, so Fred has plenty of time to find someone else that can play in 2013. It wasn't like he was going to come in and help us this year or anything.

His loss.
