I don't even know how Billy convinces blue chip prospects to come to Florida with our shitty fanbase over the likes of Duke, UNC, Kansas, and Kentucky. It's not even like the state of Florida is full of good basketball players. Most of them are highly overrated.
He can't just reload and contend every single year like those other programs. He has to basically recruit guys that will stay in college for several years and make a big run every 4-5 years. He did it in 2000. He did it in 2006. He came close in the last two years. He just had some unfortunate timing here where if he had anybody from his frontline last year (Parsons, Macklin, or Tyus) on this year's team, he'd have a championship caliber squad.
