Knowing White he takes a 7th year walk on that played 4 games in his career over someone who can be a superstar lol
Mayne that walkon from Akronnthat Dorky Dan signed has a walkon buddy on the bouncy ball team.

So much interest in one of the off season sports really brings home how much we've fallen. Football used to be able to hold everyone's interest all year long. Doubt they're talking much about BBall in Athens.........

As basketball is in season, I wouldn't call it an off-season sport. Yes, football is king, but right after college football, college basketball is easily my second favorite sport.

And I'd also add that people aren't talking about b-ball in Athens because they've ALWAYS sucked at b-ball in Athens.

Florida on the other hand has national titles in football, basketball, baseball, softball, soccer, gymnastics...

See where I am going? I want to dominate the college football world. But while we're at it, I love being great at the other sports too, most especially college basketball (after football, of course).

I'm going to stick up for white as far as this transfer portal goes. A lot teams are losing players. I think it feels too much like I'm taking my talents to Miami. Lebron boy. These kids are divas I can see why billy donavon left it's basically at the college level with kids who are so far from the nba level. You basically are tough coach and challenge these kids and they are leaving. If I don't get 10 minutes a game I'm out of here!

I'm not a Mike White fan, but Osifo is the kind of player that often headed to Div 2 at the end of a season, back before the transfer portal was a thing. I wouldn't doubt that MW "suggested" to Osifo that he transfer.

Listening to Florida Basketball Hour and they’re saying that their intel stated Locke wants to play PG and the staff basically said no.

Locke, point guard? :lol:

Just goes to show you that just getting to the NCAA Tourney and 20 wins is not enough at UF. The bar has been set really high at UF where it is expected that we are in the Sweet 16 nearly every year. Whoever the next coach is has to produce Final 4s IMMEDIATELY and obviously look competent coaching at UF. Gotta have that killer instinct and never lose the lead when we have a big lead. Have to extend the lead and stomp on the opponents throat. After watching Brad Stevens the past few weeks at Boston, he is not the guy. His time is coming to an end there and I have seen MULTIPLE times them lose a big lead of 14-24 points and lose the game. That is why they have a losing record and might not make the playoffs. He will stay in the NBA and get a fresh start at another team soon.

Right now we have a winning program but not an elite program. Not mediocre either. Mediocre is 6-6 in football EVERY year and no New Year 6 bowl games. 16-14 EVERY year in Basketball and 1/6 in the NCAAT. 30 loss seasons in baseball and 2/10 CWS. We are no where near that but MUST find Elite status soon. It starts with the administration, coaching and recruiting which all 3 have to be better. Need better continuity within all the sports programs too. We are an all sports university but it all starts with football. The new facilities should already be done and be state of the art with all the bells and whistles.

I wouldn't want any players who wanted to play Mike White stall ball and lose games they should win easily.

Boosters decide not home yelling at my tv people
You misunderstand. I don't want a penny of football money spent on basketball, at least until football is fixed.


I just love watching some of you make excuses for perpetual losers.

Yeah except for locke and nembhard were both starters for the team and they left too. Hell, nembhard was our star and played 33 minutes a game and still left.

What does Nembhard do for the zags? He is a starter and among the starters, he is: The lowest scorer, worst rebounder, lowest field goal percentage, lowest 3pt percentage. I assume he is the pg. Yet, he is second in assists per game.
