[t-gator]

This is like when my ex’s rich boss and her decided to have an affair and eventually get married…I got everything but Waterford cocktail glasses and a dyson. Thanks again!

You're welcome

 

[Oklahoma Gator]

Wait they’re effing paying us to take him??

 

[NVGator]

Don’t think there’s a need for the “?”

 

[TN G8tr]

Hey Man,

 

[Loogis]

He can take Fleming with him, if he has eligibility left.

 

[Okeechobee Joe]

Not surprised White is leaving but am surprised he's going to Georgia. I thought all along he was going to return to his alma mater, Ole Miss where he was a basketball teammate of current OM athletic director Keith Carter. I guess OM coach Kermit Davis is coming back next year or White would have been on the road to Oxford.

Can you imagine that phone call? “Scott, we’d like permission to speak to Mike White about our opening?”
“Mike, pick up the fuching phone right now!!!”

 

[Egor's Assistant]

From the Twit comments:
"There isn’t a better word to describe Mike White than “average”. Average recruiter. Average offenses. Average defenses. Mike White is neither bad, nor good….he’s just average. He’s the plain white toast of college basketball coaching."

 

[Alumni Guy]

Who we getting?

Coach Not Mike White.

He has an extensive resume of not being Mike White. He’s perfect for the Gators.

 

[Ninjax]

Let's go get Tom Crean now!

This must be an alternate reality we've all stepped into. We fire loser Dan and his dwag butt buddy, then hire a winner whos crootin like a man possessed. Then to top it off, we get rid of our garbage bball coach who had a contract thru 2027, his sorry ass goes to a hated rival so we can rub his nose in it every year, and they are paying us handsomely for the privilege!

I'd be remiss not to mention that I'm a full 12 o'clock right now. I'm bout to buy a lotto ticket and give Mrs durty a proper rogering

Best. Day. Ever.

 

[alcoholica]

Agreed

He’s very well liked inside the program and Scottie waited for a few days so White could land softly. That’s what happens to really nice people.
This seems to be a win for all three parties at this point.

Now the hard part, trusting Stricklin to get the right coach in here. Time to earn the seven figure salary.

he’s been nice to our opponents his entire tenure

 

[aka]

It's beautiful. We don't have to stop hating him and he isn't our coach.

 

[TN G8tr]

Maybe this means my Disdain for him and grow ever more being at UGAly.

 

[Alumni Guy]

Is he taking Fleming with him?

 

[gardnerwebbgator]

A fanbase that will orgasm at NIT berths, meanwhile, we'll bring in Pitino or Shaka and be back competing for titles again, we hope.

 

[TN G8tr]

Request to Strick to talk to white.
Noon a EFFING ZOOM Call to White.
By end of the afternoon, hired.
White Desperate to get out.....Georgia Desperate to hire him.

What even sounds better is UGAly paying UF 1.25M for him.

 

[CGgater]

Finally!

Unless there's a solid young Billy D clone out there, maybe they should offer Frank Martin at scar? Seems solid, had success at scar and the only reason I don't like him is he kept beating us.

That is my highly-qualified amateur opinion.

Mike White: victim.

You. Can’t. Make. This. Schitt. Up.
