Gator Basketball Gators crushed by Butler, 76-62

[Durty South Swamp]

Look at the big picture, the team just needs a few years to gel. Besides, everyone is having fun.

thanks corch

We have no chance.....

What have we done that would make you think we go on the road and win at Butler?

Look at that crowd - White could cut that crowd by into a fifth.

The appearance of the O'Dome on TV is atrocious. I can't believe all the empty seats and camera angles they focus on. It looks like a YMCA guy with about a dozen fans and ton of empty seats behind the team. It's pathetic really. As pathetic as MW's offenses. I admired the way that guy and their crowd looked.

You're such a dumper.

Blackshear's got to be thinking wtf did I just do? I left a sweet 16 team for this?

Yup, already rumors swirling that he's going to leave the team and just work out until the draft.

He should start playing better then. He has not been great and his insistence on shooting and missing 3s isn’t helping

No doubt. He hit three against Miami and that was the worst thing that could've happened... he was 4-4 inside the arc yesterday. He never needs to be taking 6 shots from out there. Nice if we had a coach that would tell him that.

This x 1000, I was thinking same thing, and Lewis has to think the same.

Dems fightin' words.

It’s kinda funny watch those last ones holding out hope turn on White. Kind of like when it happened with Chump and Butters. It’s always the same ones too.

As always, PE will be the last holdout, kicking and screaming the whole way. In his mind, criticizing an active Gator coach is the ultimate sin and no “real” fan would ever do it.

Is that someone wagging their finger at me?

and I BET you have to google that to see its origin............
Living rent free............Go Gators. If UF athletes quit as fast as some fans do we would be bottom tier in all sports.......

We’re bottom feeders when we have garbage coaches. Chump, Butters and White. But you hang in there.

The problem, Coach, is he’s had five seasons to prove his mettle. What we know so far is he can recruit. What we also know is he’s offensively challenged and consistently beaten by more organized teams with greater discipline and better schemes.

That doesn’t bode well.

Actually – if all fans were like you, we would never get rid of crappy coaches and we would always be bottom tier in sports. It’s realistic fans like us that drive change. It’s realistic fans like us to drive us to the top-tier in sports.

 

[Jbossgator8]

Sorry Corch, you aren't a realistic fan so you don't help us win and get to the top tier.

 

[VAGator]

I was so looking forward to the basketball season this year. :(
So dam mad that White does the SOSover and over and over
So disappointed
I know its early in the year, but FUCH! C'mon man!
OK, rant over. At least until the Providence game

I think Blacksheare misses too many FTs also.

White should have a collection of set-plays with Blacksheare & Payne inside with ball movement superfast (fast fakes too) around the perimeter dedicated bull-headedly to getting the ball inside to the talls. That being our practiced way, would allow less adept Jitiboh, Bassett, bigs be more useable. Cuts to the basket should always involve a big man following to dish upward to. White has no template-style that development can improve around. I doubt we can reasonably expect to see improvement in UF players. If these high recruits flop or transfer out, White will not be able to recruit well again.

If White doesn't pull a rabbit out of a hat, we will witness the decline of Gator Basketball when we should be ascending. Watch the spirit of this team? Watch the spirit of spectator fans. Recognizing the talent of our recruits, is it dawning on us that if we win 18 games with White, we would have won 24 with a different coach??

I love losing boss. Its in my DNA. Mediocrity is my motto and desultory is my life's ambition for the orange and blue. I almost didtnt survive the SOS years and Urban finally pushed me into senility. I did rally the last ten years but Millens has me back on medication for all the wins and excitement. Plain "White" bread basketball has been a life saver for me since Billy Ball went NBA. Pray for me, Boss. Pumper/Losers need to stick together (IN all kinds of weather)
