Florida basketball lands 2027 commitment from 4-star forward Ian Condon
Hours after a court ruled in favor of Denzel Aberdeen, Florida basketball landed their first commitment in the 2027 recruiting class.
Florida basketball celebrated a major recruitment victory earlier today. After a court approved Denzel Aberdeen's temporary injunction against the NCAA, the Gators announced they had secured their first commitment of the 2027 recruiting class. On September 29th, 6-foot-7, 220-pound senior forward Ian Condon from Sidwell Friends School in Washington, D.C., made his decision.
He chose to commit to the University of Florida (UF) over Georgia Tech, Boston College, NC State, Notre Dame, Syracuse, Northwestern and Stanford. Rivals ranked Condon as the No. 76 overall player in his class and the No. 10 ranked power forward. Condon expressed his decision, stating, "I decided to commit to Florida because they are a high-level program with a winning culture.
They are one of the top public universities in the country. They share a lot of similarities with Sidwell and a place where I can compete with the best for a national championship." MaxPreps reported that during his junior season, Condon averaged 20.4 points and 8.1 rebounds.
