They may want BD, and he may inquire, but that's as far as it'll get for that job.

Another lousy Monday. Just hanging out here during lunch and looking for a few laughs . The Rant never disappoints.

If he does go, it would be funny to see UF hire a top choice while UT hires another "up and comer". The rant would be fun.

UT and UF are on different levels in terms of success and admin commitment to the BBall programs. UT would like to get to the level UF is at and UF wants to stay there. Easier to get the big guy with UF has to offer.

He got pretty far along with Orlando didn't he?

Why? Florida is clearly on another level. I don't recall seeing too many UT fans suggesting otherwise.

is this a ploy to scare off good coaches to missouri and Tennessee? such coaches would frick off those job offers hoping for the gators job. After the vols and tigers get cusa coaches billy G tells twovles no thanks.

I hope it's not true. The West is hard enough without the TWolves turning themselves into another semi-legit contender

I don't think his wife would be for a move to Minnesota. Someone else mentioned that his youngest is still in school. I don't see any move to the NBA until he's graduated.

You have to now figure in the chase for College Basketball records too. He could be at UF for another 20 years and set every record known to man - possibly.

Billy D will leave when Foley leaves...or for the Knicks. But Minnesota with the chance of no Love?

I would think it would depend on the AD that replaces Foley. If Billy likes him, who knows.

Billy's got a shot at 1,000 career wins in college, that might be worth taking the Coach K route.

I'm scared of a post-Foley Florida.

Lol at all the Georgia and Mizzou fans wishing this happens, sorry not coming to fruition.

If Florida fans supported the program better I would think it was a no go, but getting to coach Kevin Love would be tempting.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Izzo in the NBA soon as well.
