The rich get richer today as Florida's Chris Walker has been cleared to play college basketball by the NCAA. He is expected to make his debut Tuesday night against Missouri after sitting out 12 games, or 40% of the season. Walker will also have to donate $270 of the money he received from agents and serve 80 hours of community service for receiving preferential treatment from five people before he arrived in Gainesville. Walker will provide an immediate spark off the bench for Florida's already deep frontcourt.  The 2013 McDonald's All-American dunk contest champion has been practicing with the Gators for a month and a half now, so he may not be all that far behind. Oh boy.
