Don’t you just love the “Take Your Children to Work” program?
Shame on his parents for letting him pretend to be a sportswriter.

Miss Donovan's approach to "assists" as a primary tenet of the game. We have a whole team, Castleton excepted, who don't know how to draw the defense and pass to the open man. Very selfish, non productive outcomes. BWTFDIK as a 5ft 6in Gator Fan?

Yep, Season was pretty much over when we lost to Vandy last week. There were still two chances to make the tourney--- slim and none.
And now those are gone as well.
Golden should decline any minor tourney invites and go spend the rest of his time finding players. Embarrassing collection of below-average guards on our team. He's going to need a monster injection of talent to have any chance of dancing next year.

Mike White destroyed Gator basketball for me. I haven't been watching. UF has no shot at the tourney even if they win out.

Only chance they have is win the sec tourney, so basically zero shot. Despite that golden is world's better than the useless hack that was here prior.

I don't believe Mike white ever had a record this bad. Mike white was a good recruiter and they played hard for him . Golden put together a pretty weak roster but he is a better in game coach. I caught alot of heat for defending white but the truth is, it's really hard to do what to make the tourney 5 out of 7 years.

We’re the second winningest SEC program since the 3 point shot was invented. Our goal isn’t to squeak into the tournament after not competing for an SEC title in the regular season. We all knew we weren’t going to win anything substantial with White, so instead of being marred in mediocrity, White blessed us with a gift.

I agree. I just think we shoulda upgraded when we told him to start looking around. Same goes with mullen.

Juries still out in both cases, just not the debut seasons we’d want
TG has to show he can bring in talent, and he needs to hire a new OC

White is a good solid coach. He's just not Championship caliber. He had 7 seasons here and could not get it done. I believe he puts too much pressure on his players to play perfect defense. His teams play tight at the end of games and think way too much. No offensive.
Billy D had a run where he made the Elite 8 ... 5 of 7 seasons. Mike White let our program drift off the map. We made zero noise in the tourney except Year 2 when Cheese made a miracle last-second shot over Whisky.
We all agree that Mike White is not the guy. In this day and age, you can't have a sub 6' white-guy coach named Mike White and expect to excel. I'm surprised MW was able to get the players that he did get... year after year, he brought in the 4-5*'s.
Goldie better get to crootin' or it's going to be a short stay in Gainesville.
