Billy Donovan has one two National Championships in a row, and this year's Florida Gator squad has started 6-0. With solid wins coming against Florida State and Rutgers, and a major upset vs. #2 ranked Michigan State, some may say Florida has a really tough team. Well Donovan's squad may have a little chip on their shoulder coming into the season not ranked. If you are not familiar with the names on the Gator roster, Donovan's backcourt is the engine that makes Florida go. Brooklyn native sophomore Erving Walker (5'8 171 lbs) averages 11 points, 3 rebounds, and 5.2 assists. While his backcourt buddy, freshman Kenny Boynton (6'2 183 lbs) averages a team high 15.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.2 assists. With these two being quick as any, the Florida backcourt is a hard match-up for anyone in the country. Walker and Boynton are also exceptional shooters, so if teams do try to zone the Gators, they will make it rain. Donovan's two prized guards will try to lead Florida through a tough SEC conference, and through the adversity of being underrated. Look out for the little duo, doing big things.
