It hasn't been a good year for the basketball program and it has been a steady decline these past few years since our magical ELITE 8 run. We are at 17-13 and 9-8 in conference but soon to be 17-14 and 9-9 after we lose @UK on Saturday. White seems to be in over his head and is a horrible coach as many have expressed on these very boards and looks to be a bad hire. We have a top 5 class coming in and 4 seniors graduating so we will have an all new and unknown team. Many on these boards say we will have the same season as this one and be around 17-15 again and NIT bound. Do we cut White loose after this season or do we give him another year to see what our new team of hot freshman and sophs can do? Can we add another big man through recruiting or transfer? All indications point to Okaru and Ballard transferring out as they don't get much playing time and haven't produced when in the game. Gak is still injured and it doesn't look like he will play again according to how Mick Hubert and Mark Wise talk on the Gator Radio Network. Stokes can't put down cheeseburgers and has yet to learn how to play defense. Do we ride it out with White and see how we do or just cut our losses now? Who are some coaches that would be on our list to right the ship and help our basketball program ascend to the top once again? Go Gators!!
