One of Golden's best traits is his ability to connect with his players. They love playing for him and this is why we have amazing player retention in an age where that's rare.

Another year of the big contraceptive terrorizing SEC bball.

Chinyelu likely coming back as well.

If Condon entered the portal he could likely get a much larger bag than just staying at UF without entering the portal.

But he prioritizes playing for a coach and team he loves over money.

Alex was the highest paid athlete on a campus with DJ Lagway. He didn’t come back for less. He’s banking at least 4 million.

Are you really saying he wouldn't have more leverage and get more money (whether he stayed or left) due to entering the portal?

He almost certainly would. He will one of the top bigs in college bball next year.

Haugh should go to the draft.

No way Florida has a 10M payroll. It’s all about money; it has nothing to do with Golden. Florida should do well. They have the Geographical advantage and should be raking. No excuse to be bad at Florida. Imagine if Duke kept Flagg and Boozer.

Anyone with a brain should know that Kentucky did not spend more than twice as much as everyone else, but most people are lemmings and have zero common sense.

Florida
Michigan
Ohio State
Duke (basketball)
Texas

Gonna dominate

Todd runs the game through him 75% of the time. He’s the best point forward in the league he just can’t shoot.

Yeah, Florida is spending way more than $10M this next season.

Maybe he should, but he is very much in conversation with TG and staff about another year.

Florida had a 11 million dollar payroll last year. Will be closer to 13 this year. Haugh returns? Probably 17.

Anything after 20 makes less than 3 million. Next years draft sucks he should make 4 million and get drafted lottery next year. Would be a way better business decision.

Someone isn't keeping up with current day prices. It's more likely Florida spends over 15 millie
