If you are like me, you never heard of Nimrod Tishman until late July. Nimrod really broke out in the international hoops scene in the 2009 U18 European Championship. He averaged 18.3 ppg to go with 4 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 6 games. Nimrod is a 6′ 5″ point guard that looks a lot like Nick Calathes on tape. Florida  just has one true point guard, Erving Walker, on scholarship, and incoming freshman Kenny Boynton planned to handle some point.
