Lewis misses his 3rd FT and Locke hits the side of the backboard on an open 3pter
I wonder if Lewis can run track or play tennis? It's tough to watch a guy who, most of the time, is probably the best athlete on the floor but is just not a good basketball player. He looks lost most of the time and can't manufacture offense for himself to save his life.

Come on man. Billy Donovan didn’t win a National Championship until about his 10th year at Florida. I’m not saying Mike White is Billy Donovan but going by your logic Florida should have fired Billy Donovan before he would have won 2 National Championships here.
He's a mediocre coach that has produced mediocre results.

I don't see an improving trend line.
I see side ways.
He's peaked.
Time to move on.

He's the biggest disappointment to me on the team this year.

Mediocre coaches don’t get to the NCAA Tourny 4 out of 5 possible years when we get there again this year. And actually Florida would have made it last year also if not for the post season being cancelled.

You keep believing in mediocrity. That's your prerogative

I'd like to read about next season. Who will be playing next year?
Any chants of us being better? At least will we be a team playing better at ball handling?

How does one coach accumulate so many players with so much talent that continue to need so much improvement?

Again see Reggie Lewis. I see regression in all phases. Why would it be different for the guard play?

Sorry, but you need to look up the definition of mediocre. Mike white has had a winning record every year as the head coach of Florida.
"Winning record" is a pretty low bar, don't you think?

It’s a moot point. Mike White isn’t getting fired this year.
