he does not. he also has been ejected from a game this season, going bonkers over officiating. so there’s that.
Tennessee last night took Kentucky’s dribble drive out like they they were play ground kids talking trash and getting their butts stuffed every time down the court. Tennessee didn’t stop there, they were pushing and shoving Kentucky every chance they got. Good grief, thankfully we don’t see them again this year. A coach with a plan and the recruits to deliver it.
I think that Wyoming got beat on the road last night. They were ranked #22 in the country. When I watched them play a week or 2 ago, there was constant motion and screening almost like a weave; plus they were creating isolations for 2 of their players who kept scoring inside. One of those guys wasn’t very big. It was fun to watch. Also, as I have said before, because of Glover, I have been watching the Samford games. Their coach, Bucky McMillan, is a really good one. They play an uptempo style called Bucky Ball. Great ball movement and unselfish play, with numerous players shuffling in and out of the game in a planned way. Bucky had been coaching at Mountain Brook H.S. in Alabama until last season. He met Glover when Glover scored 28 points against Mountain Brook in his senior year in high school. That led to the mutual interest between the 2 of them that resulted in Glover transferring to them. They are a fun team to watch. I would take Bucky at UF right now, but there a quite a few excellent coaches who will be available if Florida does it’s homework.
Any ex-Gators who were successful in the league be interested in the job, Udon, Mikey M, Hump, Werner?
I like this thread as I knew very little about Jeff Linder but found the below podcast. Very impressive. As noted in this thread no one can predict if a coach can move up and be successful at a higher level although this guy knows the game behind the game.

Personally, I wouldn’t gamble on former Gator players who have not had the necessary coaching success.
