I am really happy to hear Nembhard is already doing so well at Gonzaga! Can't really say that I'm surprised, though, because the kid is very mature and level headed for his years.
Overall I feel about him like I do about Felipe Franks. Both were great Gators while they were here as players, students and program ambassadors. Therefore, though I think it was in everyone's best interests for both of them to transfer, they will always be Gators to me and I'll be pulling for them in their post Gator careers (except when playing UF, of course ).
John Blanchette: Andrew Nembhard's stellar showing against West Virginia just another example of Gonzaga's embarrassment of riches
(Note to all those who will inevitably give me crap for supporting these 'deserters':
I am certainly happier to claim Franks, Nembhard and even guys like Driskel than guys like Janoris Jenkins who, though great, was also a pinhead at UF that embarrassed himself and the program on his way out. I still consider Jenkins a Gator too, but I am less of a fan of his overall because he did not really live up to the Gator Standard by any stretch of the imagination.)
