It’s less often than ever that freshmen can come into college and have a big impact at the high-major level, and it’s even less common when players that do so hardly had high-major offers coming out of high school. That’s what happened with Alex Condon, who committed to the Gators at a time he didn’t have much high-major interest outside of Utah, a team that historically has had interest in Australian players. Florida loved Condon’s game but expected there to be a steep learning curve, particularly since he had just decided in the recent calendar year to stop playing Australian Rules Football (a game similar to rugby) and focus full time on basketball.
