Arkansas star Boogie Fland is transferring to the University of Florida after just one season with the Razorbacks.

On Tuesday, the former McDonald’s All-American told ESPN that he has committed to joining Todd Golden’s Gators after they won the NCAA tournament in April.

Before announcing his transfer, Fland opted not to enter the NBA Draft last week. The Bronx, New York, native was at the NBA Draft Combine but withdrew before deciding to move to Gainesville this fall.

Prior to withdrawing from draft consideration, Fland was projected in Yahoo Sports’ Mock Draft 1.0 to be selected by the Bucks with the 47th overall pick.

As a freshman, the 6-foot-2 guard averaged 15.1 points, 5.7 assists and 3.4 rebounds while shooting 36.5% from behind the arc for Arkansas. The Razorbacks finished with a 22-14 record and secured a 10th seed before losing to Texas Tech in the Sweet 16.

Fland went into the transfer portal before April’s deadline, with plenty of speculation about the prospect of him landing in Florida. His arrival pairs Fland up in the backcourt with Xaivian Lee, who is transferring from Princeton.

College basketball rankings: Florida lands Arkansas’ Boogie Fland, makes big jump in updated Top 25 And 1

CBS Sports graphic Florida lost three starting guards from the team that won the national championship last month — among them Walter Clayton Jr., who was named Most Outstanding Player at the 2025 Final Four. In a previous era of college basketball, that alone would've likely prevented the Gators from having a realistic chance to repeat.But this isn't a previous era of college basketball.This is the era of college basketball dominated by transfer waivers and big NIL deals that, when combined, allows programs with strong financial support to replace departing student-athletes with established college standouts as opposed to high school prospects and/or role players. On Tuesday, Florida made another such move by securing a commitment from Arkansas transfer Boogie Fland, a 6-foot-2 guard who was a McDonald's All-American in 2024 before averaging 13.5 points and 5.1 assists in one season […]
