Former Arkansas Standout Boogie Fland Commits to National Champion Florida, AP Source Says
- Boogie Fland, a 6-foot-2 guard from Arkansas, announced his commitment to the reigning national champion Florida Gators after spending two days visiting Gainesville.
- Fland withdrew from the 2025 NBA Draft following thumb surgery that limited his playing time last season and chose to join coach Todd Golden's revamped Gators backcourt.
- In 21 games at Arkansas, he posted averages of 13.5 points, just over five assists, slightly more than three rebounds, and one and a half steals per contest, joining transfers Xaivian Lee and AJ Brown in Florida’s backcourt.
- Florida finished 36-4 last season, winning its third national title with a program-record 85.6 points per game in 2023-24 under Golden, who is among three coaches this century to win a title within three seasons.
- Fland's addition strengthens Florida's roster as a likely preseason top-10 team and could boost its repeat chances if forward Alex Condon remains in school.
