In an expected move the Gators announced Monday evening that their game with North Florida, originally scheduled for Wednesday, December 16th, would be cancelled.

The news came on the heels of an update on the condition of junior forward Keyontae Johnson who was able to be moved from Tallahassee to Gainesville, as well as a particularly encouraging note regarding him being able to respond to simple commands.

Having played North Florida 6 times over the past decade they have become a staple of Florida’s non-conference schedule and they will certainly meet again in the new future, likely next season. There have been no plans to attempt to reschedule the game, and almost certainly there won’t be.
