Gators pick up '08 commitment - 12/30/06
Florida's basketball team gained its first commitment of the 2008
class, as junior point guard Erving Walker announced Friday that
he will join the Gators.
A four-star recruit on rivals.com, the 5-6, 140-pound Walker, who
plays for Christ the King High School in New York, made his
decision public while playing at the Academy National Invitational
Tournament in Houston. In two tournament games, Walker has
recorded 42 points, 13 rebounds, nine assists and six steals. He
said that he was considering Illinois, Villanova and Tennessee
among others, but decided to go with Florida.
"I just felt it was the right decision to make," Walker said, adding
that since he knew Florida was the right choice, he saw no need
in prolonging the recruiting process.
Walker visited UF in July, and got a chance to meet the coaching
staff and all the players except Joakim Noah, who was back in
New York when Walker was in Gainesville.

"I was very comfortable," Walker said. "They made me feel at
home." He said that he also liked the campus and Florida's style
of play.
Walker's coach, Bob Oliva, said that the Gators would be getting
a "5-8 dynamo," comparing Walker to Hall of Famer Calvin
Murphy, who played with the Houston Rockets for 11 years.
Oliva said Walker's best attribute is his court presence.
