So I just turned the game on. What an absolutely boring offense. No slashing. Just constant passing along the perimeter.

This has definitely not been our best effort.

First half was one of streaks for both teams; but 2nd half, we just look clueless.

Too much talent on this team to be looking this inept.

Need to go wild on defense.??
Inexperienced freshman Payne sits after many mistakes and no coach talks to him??

We over help on defense wayyyy too much leading to wide open 3s

A team with 1 (if they’re lucky) NBA guy beating up on a team that’s supposed to have 3-5 NBA guys. What’s the difference? I think we all know.

I haven't watched 10 seconds. I already knew how this game would go. We will struggle to make the tourney.

This is what White gets out of a great recruiting class? Then what is there for Gator fans to hope for? What's our motivation to watch White's handiwork?

Can’t wait until we name the court after Billy Donovan in February. Should be an interesting scene to say the least.

Bring him back.

I've been reluctant to join the "Fire Mike White" chorus...but if he can't be successful with this team and multiple NBA players and several other future pros, wth are we doing?!?

Butler is not a more talented team. But they make FTs, make a good percentage of open 3s, put in effort on defense, and don't take stupid shots. In other words: they are well-coached. We are not. This game is putting an exclamation point on that fact.

Uh-oh, announcers bringing up that White had this team at #6 rank at season's beginning. Shouldn't we conclude that that was pundits' opinion of what a decent HC could accomplish with this much talented players?
