Florida Freshmen Chasing Gator Basketball Records

Florida’s freshmen class has been a special one only 18 games into the season with Andrew Nembhard starting since night one while Noah Locke and Keyontae Johnson commanded starting roles with their consistent play, something you wouldn’t normally associate with first-year players. This group of 2018 recruits have already set a Florida record by being the first three freshmen to start a game for the Gators since at least 2000 (I couldn’t find data for the years prior) but there are some major individual records being chased as well. Here are some potential accomplishments to keep an eye on for the remainder of this season and beyond as you watch these talented freshmen compete.
