    Jeff Zimmerman HOF Great Wall AA dies at 59

    RIP. Yet another reminder to live today like it's your last day. We're the same age. We had a class together but never got to meet. I still remember the Professor doing roll call and when it came to Zimmerman there was no response.

    Gator Basketball ***Official Game Thread BBALL*** SEC Tourney - UF vs AL

    This group that has a good chance of winning the SEC tourney as well as making a deep run in the NCAA tourney. I would surprised if we don't at least make it to the Sweet 16. This is a deep team with athleticism. IMO, we have elite guards with experience. Pullin has exceeded my expectations...

    Gator Basketball UF gets first top 25 ranking under Golden

    The ranking has been earned. Hard to believe we have a preseason first team all SEC pick coming off the bench. This is a deep team with a minimum 4 players who could carry the team on any given night. The biggest drawback of bringing in so many new faces is the time it takes for players to...

    Gator Basketball ***Official Game Thread BBALL*** UF @ UGA

    As of this afternoon we're #25 in the Bilas Index. No. 25 Florida Gators: Todd Golden has a good basketball team in Gainesville, and one that can continue to get better over the last month of the regular season. Florida plays at a fast pace and can really crash the offensive glass, ranking...

    Gator Basketball ***Official Game Thread BBALL*** LSU @ UF

    Opposing coaches having figured out that Florida gets tight when they switch to a zone defense. I'm personally surprised other teams haven't started games playing zone against this group. Golden and staff need to address this in practice like they did with FT's. I don't see anyone...

    Gator Basketball ***Official Game Thread BBALL*** LSU @ UF

    Glad this one is at home. A road game after a Huge victory would have been a trap game.

    UF Coaching Thread: Russ Callaway promoted to Co-OC

    Looks like Napier is going to ride or die with himself as HBC and OC. He has his generational wealth and that's that. Only successfull Power 5 coaches recognize their weaknesses and make the necessary changes.

    Gator Basketball ***Official Game Thread BBALL*** UGAly @ Florida

    Good news is they overcame the collapse. Bad news is they literally tried giving this game away. Golden avoided a painful lesson and will hopefully not sit on a late 2nd half lead like he did today.

    Gator Basketball ***Official Game Thread BBALL*** UGAly @ Florida

    Wow. Total late game collapse. Golden took the gas off the pedal offensively way too soon and the players looked uncomfortable in the final minutes.

    Atlanta Falcons choose Raheem Morris; Steelers hire Arthur Smith as OC

    FWIW. I listened to a couple of insiders on local radio and the thought is that Arthur Blank listened to his people and they convinced him that the BB style of coaching (negative reinforcement) would not work with today's player. This isn't to mention that BB apparently told Arthur Blank he...

    Gator Basketball ***Official Basketball Game Thread: Gators vs #5 TN***

    They will need to win the rebounding battle by double figures and play solid 3pt defense. TN cannot shoot > 45% from the field or anything above 35% from downtown for us to stand a chance.

    Gator Basketball ***Official Basketball Game Thread: Gators @ #22 Ole Miss***

    From my perspective Ole Miss played like they were pissed off about their blowout loss to TN and UF hasn't put the KY loss behind them. Watched a post game interview with Golden and he looks and sounded pissed off. Completely different from the post game pressers given by Napier. We'll see...

    Gator Basketball ***Official Basketball Game Thread: Gators @ #22 Ole Miss***

    Let's hope the UK loss doesn't linger because it appears Chris Beard has quickly built a quality team. Another loss and the rest of the season could quickly become an uphill battle. The SEC is really loaded this year and other than the pending matchup vs TN there are some winnable games against...

    Gator Baseball 2024 Baseball Thread; Gators wasting Caglione

    Sully deserves some of the criticism hurled his way but he deserves way more props than he receives. Looks like they're loaded again and if they can find some quality pitching we should be in for another entertaining season with a possibility of some trophies. I think it's safe to say we...

    Birthday Happy Birthday oxrageous!

    Hope you have a great day so given all the doom and gloom you should probably stay away from GC for at least today.
