Florida’s 7ft 9in Oliver Rioux becomes tallest player in college basketball history

• World's tallest teenager debuts for national champs

• Rioux, 19, plays two minutes in Florida's 104-64 win

Florida coach Todd Golden had people yelling at him at halftime Thursday night to get 7ft 9in center Olivier Rioux in the game.

Golden relented with 2:09 to play - and made history in the process - after chants of We Want Ollie" swept through the O'Connell Center.
