Are you still mad that Billy D left to take the OKC job?

However, are you happy he is 1 win away from the NBA Finals?

You guys were last in the Final Four back in 2014

Who in their right mind would be mad? It's a silly question IMO.

I guess. I hate the NBA so IDGAF but good for him. He's a good man.

Hell no, I'm a major Billy D fan for life, I rooting for him to be only the 3rd coach to win a NCAA and NBA title and it's only the beginning, he's already a sure fire hall of famer, now he's coaching to become a legend.

Hell no. Figured it would happen. I will always be glad for what BD did at UF

If he wins it all, I would be happy.

Nope - 19 years is long enough to wish him well

Go Thunder, don't watch the NBA but pulling for Donovan

Oh well, 2nd best Men's basketball program in the SEC will have to do. By the way, we have 2 NCs in the last decade in Men's BBall. Mike White will be a great Gator coach, soon!

I was never mad he took a damn good job and he's making the most of it in his first year

Now spurrier leaving that was an absolute kick in the nuts and came out of nowhere

I think any Gator fans were mad he left. He went to top notch NBA team with 2 super stars. I also think the move could be good for UF , Billy D. Needed a change IMO . He didn't seem to get the talent lately that he was getting year ago.

I don't watch the NBA , but good for him for doing good. He is a good coach.

We made it to that final four on experience . We need to start recruiting better.

Our basketball program as we know it exists because of him. Worst-case scenario it disappears into nothing now that he's gone. We'd still have the memories.

If anything, watching what he's doing in the playoffs right now makes me even more appreciative that we were lucky enough to call him our coach for so long.

Not mad. He was great for the BBall program.

Happy for him and how success has followed him to NBA as well.
