Anyone gloating about this should realize that this is not good for the SEC. Florida will go back to being an average or above average program without Donovan, and we will be back to being a UK dominated league. Florida will make the tournament most years, but not getting #1 seeds.

Grant or Pel could be named interim coach for a year if a suitable replacement is not available. This is bad timing as usual for us.

Funny how Florida fAns sound just like Arkansas fans did when Nolan was fired

"We will be ok"

"We are one of the winningest programs this decade, just pay him to leave"

"We can hire anyone we want"

See how that turned out here....

Yeah, Kentucky will go back to dominating the league

You have a link or are you just making stuff up?

Most in this thread have said we think he goes and we are fine with that after all he has done for UF.

I don't recall a single UF poster saying we can hire who we want. Phil Jackson isn't coming to Gainesville. Maybe Steve Kerr, but not Phil

Because I think Florida will take a big step back without the only coach they have ever won with?

It's a simple question...assuming you even understand your own original post that is.


Because Tennessee is a trash arse program. I hope Florida doesn't become that caliber.

Not really. Bad timing would imply your AD would get a splash hire, other than the roll the dice he normally does. Some assistants or mid-major coaches are still available, just like he likes.

If germans, mea culpa, but what kind of recruiting class would Donovan be leaving the next HC?
