Should he have made the video? Nope. But anyone who is serious about kicking him off the team for it is just silly, because he cares about as much about Gator culture as anybody else who plans to go to a university for 1 year.
I agree with much of your post; but focusing on this part--because while I also agree that it's unlikely this clown will be kicked off the team...White *has* to impart some punishment to the player here.
At the end of the day, White's job is to be the face for Florida basketball--and if you have a player undermining that job and drawing negative attention to the program, then consequences need to be had. Make the bastard run wind sprints until he pukes and/or bench him. If a reporter asks him about it (which they should), then he needs to say "I'm aware of the video and have disciplined the player internally." Not that White has much of any credibility with FL fans at this point, but he still needs to try to at least pretend to do his job and this is a pretty clear example of how and when to step in.
