University of Florida big man Keith Stone, a 6-8 and 254-pound Deerfield Beach native, is heading closer to home to spend his final year of eligibility at the University of Miami.

“I’m coming home momma,” Stone posted on Twitter Monday night, posing in a UM uniform in front of a Hurricanes backdrop.

Stone, 21, was a redshirt junior last season and is scheduled to graduate this summer, making him eligible to play for the Canes immediately.
