Gators Basketball Hires Assistant John Andrzejek | GatorCountry.com
Did we hire him to have someone who could commiserate with Szymczyk about people mispronouncing their names?
"In addition to his focus on the offensive side of the ball, Andrzejek is known to be an analytically-minded coach who embraces the progressive side of the game. " What is the "progressive side of the game?" I really don't know.

Bummer, but not surprising. You don't turn a team's defensive numbers around like that and not get people's attention. Congrats, John! Glad he's sticking out the tournament. Hopefully with his full focus, and hopefully them Gator Boyz play tough D to make him look even better.
Dammit, why can't our coaches and players stay put for the remainder of their respective careers for no increase in pay for my interest in watching the team play on TV for free. Is this too much to ask???/s Congrats on your new adventure. And thanks for the memories...hopefully.
Happy for both coaches, but damn, I would have stayed to the end of the tournament to see my boys win. Bad timing, hope it doesn't bite us.
