    This is true, but TJ gets a pass, he has a way with words when it comes to that entity.

    Go GATORS!

    I thought I had heard the Tally locals were pushing to name their court after Hamilton as well. Crazy what being mediocre can get you at FSU.

    What does being mediocre get you at FSU? Admission as a student.


    That was cruel and brutish.


    But true...

    Why? He was gone 7 years before Dwayne arrived. He played for Stormin Norman.

    Yeah, I should have looked it up, I was going by memory. Sloan left when I graduated and I thought Kruger replaced him. But you are right, DeVoe coached one year. I thought Dwayne graduated in 89 when I did, but forgot he quit the team.

    Leonard Hamilton is a good dude. If he coached anywhere else, I'd root for him.

    It’s only weird if you’re unfamiliar with TJ.

    I don’t have anything against him; I just think he is not a good coach and is in the Sampson style of coaching. I will say he was an ideal fit for FSU. He should retire soon IMO as modern basketball has passed him by.

    I actually admire Gator fans who abhor FSU. They hate and resent UF so much it’s not funny. I think many FSU grads wanted to attend UF but were denied entrance so that partly explains their hatred.

    Don’t blame those kids for their ill feelings. We have lost a lot of State of Florida legacy kids that are outstanding that didn’t get accepted. Yet we take a bunch of Middle East and Asian students that have no idea what UF is and will not enhance the quality of the workforce in this state.

    When I was at North Texas, I was a grad student director. My band had students from Korea, Sweden, Germany, and Puerto Rico. I always thought that was a good thing.
