You're welcome but a stark perspective of Georgia basketball is that Mike White was an upgrade and we got in the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 9 years.

Both teams are better than before the coaching change.

Congrats Gators

Sure, but Georgia could've hired Todd Golden, the youngest coach to win the NCAA Tournament since expanding to 64, but instead hired perennial loser Mike White.

Golden would not be the same at UGA. We systemically suck at Bball.

Special thanks to the Gators for giving Mike White a win over the NCAA champs

Congrats on the championship and what a run FL has had. 3 national championships in 20 years is elite in any sport

You're right, and Georgia was much more of a rebuild job than UF basketball.

Celebrate the NCAAT yall won less than 12 hours ago and stop thinking about the guy who is in Athens now.

I’m flattered that you think Golden would hve access to the same basketball talent in Athens as he does in Gainesville

THIS.

Mike White has a former longtime Duke AD for a dad, a brother that's the current AD at original SEC UT and a sister whom is like an assistant AD. I think he got wind of the UF's plans for him.
