On Monday afternoon, Florida Gators center John Egbunu hinted at the end of his playing days in Gainesville in an Instagram post with no caption that reused Florida’s Senior Day graphic for him.
On Tuesday, we got confirmation — from The Gainesville Sun reporter Kevin Brockway and Florida staff writer Chris Harry — that Egbunu’s semi-cryptic post was what it seemed: An official announcement that he would not seek a sixth year of eligibility to play for Florida in 2018-19, and will instead pursue professional basketball.
So, John Egbunu makes it official, via Instagram.
