Fooley hit gold one more time - nobody called Mike White as being the guy to deliver a 22-point blowout to Kentucky's azz. Damn great job GATORS, damn great job MIKE!!! :clap:

Florida wins 88-66!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What an amazing game. It was fueled by some amazing passion on the defensive end and some rebounding. They wanted this game and played like it. It wasn't the best offensively and we were even without Stone. Hill did it all for us. He played amazing D (even on Monk, I was wrong about that...they threw everyone at him) drove all day...dished...made FTs...and made jump shots. Amazing. We played a lot of 3 guard lineups due to being down a big in the 2nd half and it really helped limit turnovers. Allen was even off tonight...10 pts I thing...but EVERYONE played out of their mind with intensity!!!!!! Amazing ****ing Game


Edit: Really good coaching tonight as well...Coach White got this team to play tonight

Tremendous defensive effort, but I'm a little surprised no one is talking about how well this team distributes the ball to set up high-percentage looks. Tonight's were the first significant minutes I've watched this team all season and that was the first thing that caught my eye.

Cal looked so frustrated at one point, I almost expected tears.

Liked Calipari squeeling like a pig to the officials when they were consistently clearly calling in his favor. Mike finally got tired of it and showed it in the last minute of the game. If these SEC officials are bought, give us some high school refs they will call an even game. And this coming from a fan whose Gators won by 22!

Y'all remember when Mike White was a terrible head scratching hire? Good times.
cause he was not a big name hired gun...........that is the only coaches worth a sh#t ........like Billy was..........Oh wait.......I forgot. Mike has them playing def. Hustling and tonite they DID not take their foot of UKs neck or off the pedal. KaseyH shot the ball tonite better than ever. the Reb margin was unreal and all those shots blocked in the 1st half had Uk going WTF.............and crying Calamari was an embarrassment.........to Lexington. If I was a ref I woulda give him a little business.......

just like football when the announcer bemoaned bammer's 3 missing defensive starters and barely mentioned that over half of UF's defensive starters were out

Perfect synopsis of this game. Billy took a few years to buy into the Def intensity part....... MIkeW knows from the get go it wins games...........The rebound margin was not real. History says this is the biggest victory margin over UK ever............good for these boys and Mike

This doesn't happen by accident. Mike appears to be a coach that commands buy-in and gets it. At this point I'm very comfortable with our BB coach. Very impressed with his work in front of the cameras too. The guy is very intertesting during an interview will somebody please make Mac look at some of Mike's tapes.

No Stone, playing on 48 hours rest compared to their 96 hours, and having a short bench in the 1st half due to foul trouble (many ticky tack). But yes Bilas, please tell me about Fox's sickness where he played regular minutes. The fact that he didn't start but came in after only 3 minutes of game time was a joke :lol:
