Gators get Top 10 recruit

Kenny Boynton, a 6-foot-2 shooting guard who is ranked the nation's No. 8 prospect by Scout.com, orally committed to the Gators Thursday evening.

Boynton, of Plantation American Heritage, made his announcement on ESPNU. He chose UF over Duke, Southern Cal, Texas and Georgia Tech.

"I took numerous visits to all the schools, and on my Florida visit I was very comfortable,'' Boynton said.

Boynton averaged 34.5 points per game as a junior last season.
