    Unfortunately, no video -- "Event has not yet started" but from the radio call it obviously has. Anyone getting video?

    Louisville is undefeated and it shows-14-7 start. It is a Louisville love fest with a former UL player announcing.

    Thanks -- on now. What an ugly floor -- hope our new floor next year is nothing like that.

    All kinds of errors and mistakes by us in that first set.
    If they can clean those up this could at least be competitive.

    Yikes they look good. T'quitter probably wouldn't have made a difference in that set.

    UL is a good team and playing at home with a packed crowd.

    That's a NCAA floor. Has always been ugly. They require the ugly floor for regionals and final four.

    This screaming home girl from Louisville has to be one of the most annoying commentators ever.

    Gators gave a decent effort in set 2 at least, but Louisville is just a higher-level team.

    UL takes the 3rd set 25-12 and wins the match. Good season for the Gators considering they played short handed all year.

    I think anyone who follows this team at all realizes that Coach Wise did a pretty damn good job considering that the team was almost never on the practice floor at the same time due to injuries, Covid, etc.

    That annoying announcer today made the point that until just the last couple of weeks, it was difficult for opponents to prepare for the Gators since they never knew what they were going to get. Kind of a backhand way of saying we've had a difficult time putting a consistent team on the floor.

    Things jelled in the last couple of weeks, until T'quitter bailed on the team at the last second. That we got as far as we did speaks highly for Coach Wise. She played the cards she was dealt and made the most of what we had, imho.

    We did have the consensus #1 HS player in the country for 4 years. 0 trips to the Final 4.

    There is a lot of truth to that year we have people that want a statue of her outside the gym. Go ahead and bacon me but I’m right. This program should be farther along , way farther. She is a great representative of the sport and the school though. Florida needs to move forward

    She is in charge of those cards. If Mike White grilled so should Wise

    Spot on Wing. Maybe it’s time to change the dealer.
