Like all Mike White teams there will be good stretches and frustrating stretches during the season.

Enjoyable game…really liked seeing the bench guys get solid minutes.

Can we just get a BB Coach like Napier?...Asking for a friend

Not until the administration realizes that the program is in decline to the point of complete embarrassment. I think we’re getting there.

Florida is up 13-5 at the under 16 timeout. Jones is out in COVID protocols. Kowacie comes in and hits an early 3pter. We have a huge size advantage so Castleton and the bigs should be the focal point early

So we’re going to continue with Covid protocols for a benign strain of virus?
Why am I not surprised?

 

[TLB]

For some reason I am going to see this event in person.

.

Court order? What did you do to piss off the judge?

 

[rogdochar]

You cannot have a worse coach than one who makes fans "poo-poo" any victory. We can only beat losers and some of them will beat us the 2nd time around.

At the prompting of a friend, I went back and watched the end of the game with the sound on. I had already rewatched about 75% of the game with sound on to hear how Patric Young was doing as a color analyst.

Once again mid-major Mike channelled his inner AD (that as someone here said he was born to be) and got overly excited that Gatkek was following his basketball instincts and trying to score very late in the game. Of course this only compounded mid-major Mike apology speech for the other coach what with the Duruji 360 dunk and then Gatkek trying to score with .6 of a second left.

Sadly this incident sums up some of the problems with mid-major Mike. We can count on his spending a good part of the next week trying to coach instinctual basketball out of these guys. I suspect coaching basketball instinct out of guys is part of the reason UF struggles on offense every year. To much thinking lead to shots falling less frequently.
