Gator Basketball ***Official Game Thread BBALL*** Florida vs UCONN

No. But Golden right now is not an upgrade from Mike White. The admin got all impressed with Golden's use of analytics and modernizing the basketball program. Maybe they forgot coaches need to be good in game coaches. We shall see in the next year or so what Golden can do, but again I'm not getting optimistic here.

Analytics are scam. This fast talking San Fran Man somehow (looking at you Kamala) sucked his way onto Billy Donovan court. Analytics are just statistics said another way. Hey look, we play better and score more points when Castleton and Kowacie are on the court at the same time. Who knew?!?! Analytics won't help ya if you can't coach.

Correct. They don't give timeouts to run analytics on their ipads.

I watched the game and I saw a UConn team that hustled every possession and at defense for the entire game. They were in our faces inside and at the 3 pt arc. We only made 30% of our shots and 26% from long range. The only time we got a good look was at the charity stripe, but we only made 64% of those.

We also need to do better in the paint; Jitoboh only got 8 minutes and 4 of our players were 0-25 from the field including 0-8 from 3-point range. Give UConn credit for a good win, but we need better ball handling and more than 5 points from the bench otherwise it will be a long season.
