Ummm how is this legal?
"Florida and Kentucky, I loved them both," Patterson said. "I went back and forth every single day, every minute until I finally (picked UK). The 'X' factor was the distance. I know (Florida) Coach (Billy) Donovan said he'd do everything he could for my family, moving them out there and finding a house in Jacksonville but I just didn't want to do that to my family. "
I didn't know you could do that?

I don't see how that would meet the "same benefits as available to the general student population" test...

I'm sure that Donovan isn't the only major coach giving that kind of a line to a recruit. Regardless if you like Florida or not, I don't think it's much of a big deal here.

Probably just a figure of speech that Donovan used.
