Oh really.
You know what you are? You're a dipshyt coward. Own it, dude.
He transferred to LaLafeyatte, played in the NBA for a stint, and now he plays in..................................Mexico.The biggest disappointment we've ever had was Orien Green. Dude was a straight Baller.
Great length, speed, and insane athleticism. He just couldn't put it together upstairs. So much talent never brought to fruition.
No doubt his career numbers are better, but
1) How does the defense compare?
2) How does the minutes played and team distribution compare?
2) How does the overall team talent compare?
3) How does the competition compare?
4) What would happen if they switched teams and eras?
I personally don't know much about Walk, so I am interested in the comparison.
My all time starting 5? The 04s... that is it. Period.
Ok, tough message board poster guy that apparently gets his jollies off on calling people names behind a keyboard...
His performance cost us the game, hurt or not. You are free to have any opinion that you want.
But where exactly did I say he choked? Choking implies that his lack of performance was tied to pressure or the stage being too big for him. Where exactly did I say that? I said he played one of his worst games of his college career ... which I think is a pretty reasonable opinion (find me a game where he played worse, healthy or not). You are claiming I said something that I didn't.
Own it, dude.
YOU DA MAN, @MidwestChomp !! Bestest, most positive, fun-reading thread in a while! All positive until a couple of guys couldn't resist trading barbs. Still, major props to you! ThanksThis thread is fantastic. I really never thought it would be three pages long when I started it. Love hearing about all the older Gators.
I got the opportunity to watch those guys in Atlanta during the SEC tourney. Scottie, DFS and Will came into the stands after the semifinal game and signed autographs and posed for pics with every single person that wanted them. They spent extra time with the kids and they were all smiling the whole time, so you could tell they were truly good guys.To add about that 2013-2014 team, I'll always have fond memories of that season partially due to the win streak as Insti mentioned and partially because it was the first year my son showed an active interest in the games. The kid knew every player and was especially attached to Will Yeguette and Scottie. To the point where he would wear his socks high and wanted a mohawk to emulate them. He even got a chance to go to one of their practices and got an official game ball and signed poster. The players were all great with him, I even have a video of freshman Kasey Hill blocking my son's attempt at a layup
Not much for understanding nuance, are you? Or are you just backpedaling now that YOU'VE been called out? Go back and look at your previous posts blasting his performance, including the first one where you called him out for "singlehandedly" costing us the national semifinal. I'll bet you weren't even aware he was injured or you wouldn't have stuck your neck out so far to blast his performance. Even when it was pointed out he was injured -- not as an excuse, but as a statement of fact -- you still refused to acknowledge how it could have affected his play. It's called intonation and it's necessary to understand why his play was so subpar.
A little something on Andrew Moten, who was from my hometown. We had all watched him play at Shanks HS and it was exciting for a guy from Quincy to go to UF. When he came home for the summer after his freshman year, I played against him in the summer league they held at the old black HS (Carter-Paramore). I was 25 and could still play pretty well, but Moten was other-worldly. He had several steals that turned into break away dunks and I swear I don't think he shot any closer than 5 feet beyond where the 3pt. arc would have been (CP's gym didn't have one!). We held him to 63! He was something else. He's actually coaching at West Gadsden HS (used to be old Greensboro HS) and has been pretty successful. I always thought his career at UF would have been even better if Maxwell wouldn't have had an influence on him.
I think he probably redeemed himself last month.The biggest disappointment we've ever had was Orien Green. Dude was a straight Baller.

I played against Moten and Maxwell in a pick-up game at some public court in Gainesville when they were relative unknowns. I'm 6' and could dunk the ball back then. Was guarding Maxwell and let him go baseline thinking I would swat his sh*t when he went up. Well, he just kept rising and dunked the hell out of it while I was swatting at his elbows.
