Shooting guard KeVaughn Allen will remain with Florida, multiple outlets reported on Monday.

Allen committed to Florida last year and signed his National Letter of Intent in April.

After Gators coach Billy Donovan left for the Oklahoma City Thunder, Allen's stepfather said he would seek a release.

Earlier this month, Florida hired former Louisiana Tech coach Michael White to replace Donovan.

Allen's decision means Florida will keep three of the four class of 2015 recruits —​Allen, three-star power forward Kevarrius Hayes and four-star small forward Keith—Stonewho signed with Florida while Donovan was in charge.

The lone defector is four-star forward Noah Dickerson.

Rivals.com rates Allen the No. 67 player in the class of 2015. As a senior at North Little Rock (Ark.) High, he averaged 25.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 3.1 steals per game.
