i am slowly becoming one. i lived in jacksonville for 5 years. well i was born there and moved when i was 5. i never used to like them cuz of spurrier. but i like urban meyer. I helped with a local H.S. basketball team this year and the coaches went down to a Billy Donovan camp and loved it. I really like the way the hustle on every play especially Brewer. it is going to be hard to pull for them if they ever play Duke but other then that ill pull for them in football and basketball. plus i live in GA and pulling for the gators makes all the dawg fans mad. :D actually bought my first gator apparrel the other day, the game shorts and 2 shirts. so i guess i am converted.

just so everybody doesnt think i just hopped on the bandwagon. i would like to get my chemistry degree and move back to FL and pursue a higher degree at the U of F. so that is really where it started. but Duke is still my #1 bball team, maybe if i go to Florida it will change but for now it is Duke #1 and Florida #2 when it comes to bball.

i was the assitant j.v. coach and sat on the bench and kept stats for the varsity. we both practiced together so i helped with both about the same. i actually got a couple of their phone #'s and play with them still on the weekend some. if the pharmacy thing falls through i think coaching and teaching is what i will do.

Cherish these last few games with Donovan as the head coach! Hes going to UK next year (is about a sign a 7 year deal worth 3.5 mill a year).

if you ever do come to uf we have the sickest rec center around. Not only is the gym badass but pretty much at any time of the day there are four courts of indoor b-ball. I played in high school, so now adays this is the only way to get back to that intense competition level of play. no streetball garbage around here. Hope school works out for you bro and good luck coaching, its somethin i definitly want to do in the future as well.

hope this is what happens instead:


So what was Donovan doing here Friday night? Playing the Pay Me card or subtly announcing a sincere interest in coaching the Wildcats?
My guess would be the former. The man holds every chip in the casino.
Donovan has two years left on a deal that pays him $1.7 million annually at Florida -- less, on average, than football coach Urban Meyer. Kentucky was paying Tubby Smith in excess of $2 million -- and would theoretically be ready to pay more than that for the national championship coach whose team has beaten the Wildcats six straight times. So we could be heading for the Mother Of All Bidding Wars. Because Kentucky would seem ready, willing and very able to pay a king's ransom for the best basketball coach it could get, and Florida has almost as much money as Microsoft. Bring on the auctioneer.

not a chance UF would let him leave. we will ultimitly pay him whatever it takes. although I won't lie his comments after last game and on pti were a little suspect.

nah. G'Town might beat OSU. Oden is great but i dont think he hustles on every play. they showed a few clips on him awhile back on ESPN. i know he is a big guy but so is Noah and Big Al but i rarely see them not hustlin especially Noah. he plays with about as much intensity as anybody. but Brewer is my boy. it was so funny the other day during the game. dont know if anybody remembers but at one point Oregon was bringing it up the court and Brewer chased him down from behind and tipped it away. We did this drill during practice everyday cuz when the coaches went to the camp Donovan and them did it like nonstop. we actually incorporated a couple of things they got from the camp into our practice.

Oh yeah.... and Georgetown WILL NOT beat Ohio State. Florida maybe, but not Georgetown. UCLA is no slouch either Floridians...

Not to mention.. Florida didn't look like a Championship team quite a few times this season.

Ohio State!! Show them why you were #1 going into the tourney!

hey hey easy on the band wagon. (although it is a nice ride.) i said duke is #1 and florida #2 in bball. Duke is out so now i am routing for the gators. i am not going to lie and say i have been a gator fan my whole life. i mentioned my reasons earlier but you have to say i picked a pretty good time to become a fan. :D

I really think OSU will take it this year. Why not because of Oden, look at their season and post season, nothing but close games or come backs its really amazing how they keep on winning. Personally I am not really impressed with Oden, I like him. Maybe they need to feed him the ball more.

Of course I don't care who wins, I am heartbroken. UNC let their slip. Bad calls by the refs and terrible gameplan towards the end. How is it with 4 minutes left and Gtown's Hibbert has 4 fouls and he doesn't foul out. Answer UNC never feed Tyler the ball and when he did get ot at the end where were the fouls?

Enough ranting, I hope UCLA wins it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
