But hey, being unique is something to be proud of, so go you!
You type like you are 12. You can do better.And also yall better quit going by by what joey telling y'all he said it himself he dont even know what the committee even thinking i betcha one thing i bet youre gonna be nervous at 6
Reading this post you'd find it impossible to believe the Gators are a 2-time NC winning program and have been to the Final Four a boatload of times. There are banners hanging all over the O-dome.Were definitely gonna have our hands full with Nevada. But sure is nice to be in! Just a good overall look for the program.
I think Coach White sacrifices some victories in the regular season to mold and toughen our team for the tournament. I believe we will perform somewhat better than expectations.

"Just getting in" is a "good look for the program"?
I, for one, am happy for the underclassmen to get the experience - they need it. The upperclassmen going out on an NCAA bid, is ok, but I really don't feel we owe them much given how the season has gone.
I will be admitting I've said all along this team wouldn't make the tourney, and I WAS WRONG.
That 282nd national rank in scoring is a sacrifice alright.I think Coach White sacrifices some victories in the regular season to mold and toughen our team for the tournament. I believe we will perform somewhat better than expectations.
I think the dark side has embraced you. You sound more and more like a disillusioned beat writer for the Cleveland Browns.........;)That 282nd national rank in scoring is a sacrifice alright.

Probably right, I felt this way last year too. Maybe I just can't explain some of the losses, performances and substitution patterns during the seasonI sincerely doubt White knows the selection committee well enough to skate this close to the bubble and get in. I get the concept of a coach sacrificing wins to grow and teach the team. I don't see that in White's mindset as yet. Mostly, it's been survival.
I found your boat holding our Final Four appearances ('94,'00, '06, '07, '14). Careful, as I think you'll need a bigger boat if we make it again. Shouldn't be this year, though, so you have time.
There are indeed banners all over the O-Dome...for track, gymnastics, oh..and men's bball as well. For the men, the past decade has been what? I'll be generous and start with the NC's:
'06 = NC
'07 = NC
'08 = NIT Semifinal
'09 =NIT Quarterfinal
'10 = NCAA R1
'11 = NCAA Elite8
'12 = NCAA Elite8
'13 = NCAA Elite8
'14 = NCAA Final4
'15 = ???
'16 = NIT Quarterfinal
'17 = NCAA Elite8
'18 = NCAA R2
As a program, Elite8 is our current calling card = respectable, but not top tier. As such, just making it in isn't a good look, it shows a down year. But looking at White's tenure, we're f'n fortunate to make it in. It (hopefully) shows he's building back up to regular attendance in the tournament, which isn't a given when he has an NIT and a second round bounce to go with his no-postseason in '15. THAT is not a good look, and 'just making it in' improves upon that.
