Crazy to think an alumn wouldn’t even want this job. We might end up with a Perry Clark smh

It's not crazy at all that Mike White would turn the job down considering his position and the abilities and prestige UF provides. I'm sure it's Rahim Lockhart's dream job, and if we really needed the alumni pull someone like Keith Carter (already part of the OMAF) would join the program if asked. It's not like we don't have program greats involved in the thick of things. Likewise, that was never the issue with not having Mike White. We theoretically could've gotten him a few seasons ago, maybe, but it would've been an utter slap to AK, and we might still get White a few seasons from now. He would've been great to give a new vision to the program, but it's not in the cards. There's a lot of clamor for Forbes, who wouldn't be a bad hire, but if we're gonna shoot for the stars, let's shoot

I don't think that's totally fair, but no an alum that is coaching a team with a lot more $$ in basketball and a lot more tradition is not taking this job.
