Yeah I don't see ANY WAY we win this game or even keep it close. Its a total disaster but what we need to FIRE MW here soon hopefully. Can we shock the nation and fan base and win this game? I really don't see how VT isn't favored by 6-8 points.

Look and analyze the $3-million dollar product White puts on the floor to represent the University of Florida. ??
Compare White to these lower echelon tournament coaches.

I think it should be win or die for Mike White.
Win one game, you can keep your job. You're not fired.
Win two games, we'll forget about how disappointed we've been. Clean slate.
Win three games, we'll give you an extension and maybe a raise.
Make it to the final four, we get a banner. You win. Best coach since Billy D.

VT is the better team but they've only played one game since Feb 27th which was a loss during the ACC tourney. This is going to be a very sloppy game given the layoff and the recent offensive issues which have plagues White since his arrival.

Let’s see if Tre Mann can score 60 points for us, he seems to be the only one interested in producing right now.

A 7 seed? I’d ask who UF paid off, but we are cheap bastards. So, how did this happen?
2012. Finished 2nd in the SEC with a 10-6 conference record and ranked #25. Get a 7 seed. Team is pissed off and get to the Elite 8.

How this team got a 7? No idea. But they won't get to the elite 8.

Perhaps they'll play pissed off they didn't get the 12 seed they feel they earned? Maybe get blown out in the opening round to prove the point?

is it just me or is this season just a mess? Florida was on a roll beating some really good teams.. They killed Tennessee, beat West Virginia then a layoff with covid kinda killed our flow.. Looking at other teams schedules it seems this occurring basically with everyone. Everyone is big on Bama, but they were a disaster at one point losing to some really crudy teams. Picking these games is basically just random as can be I'm surprised experts can even figure this stuff out when these games are so random and which team is going to show up? Covid and long layoffs with teams its hard to tell what is going on... I'm guessing its more of what have you showed me lately is how you pick these games.. How do we get back to playing like we did against West Virginia? We seemed have something there...

Well, Gator players, now it's elimination-time ... so eliminate stupid dribbling, telegraphed slow passing, etc.

Hinkle Fieldhouse at Butler U.? Isn't that where Jimmy Chitwood rose up and made a last second jumper to send the real life Milan High School to the Indiana High School Championship in the 1950's?

For the record, it’s where Bobby Plumb made a last second jumper for Milan High School and Jimmy Chitwood for the imaginary Hickory High School.

Just sayin

You can always count on a few to blame the piss poor performance on something other than what it is.
