Cleveland State transfer guard Tyree Appleby has committed to Florida.
The 6-1 point guard is another huge addition for the Gators, who have done an excellent job this offseason picking up talented newcomers.
Due to NCAA transfer rules, Appleby will sit out the 2019-20 season and have two years of eligibility remaining.

He averaged 17.2 points and 5.6 assists per game last season for the Vikings while earning All-Horizon League Second Team honors.
The Gators have also brought in Virginia Tech transfer Kerry Blackshear Jr. and a top-five recruiting class, which should allow them to compete for the SEC title this season.
