Guys, I'm a Gator from another country. My English isn't great. There's a lot of emotions in this forum right now about Aberdeen. Some blame the NIL and portal rule. Some blame the player being greedy. Some think Lee is the reason. My humble opinion is the portal and NIL is not the issue. Our natty relies on the portal. We don't have a huge NIL comparing to other teams. But our coach still find the best fits to his system. I think the rule is the rule. We can still win with this rule. Player has the right to choose money over loyalty. I accept that, I don't blame DA for doing this. He told coach Golden what he want money wise and role wise. Coach turned it down. So he chose the other road to prove a point. I think he has some chips on his shoulder. It's Coach Golden's decision to pay and recruit Lee and decline Aberdeen's request. I think it's a basketball decision. I trust his evaluation because he's a great great coach. I'll also support Lee and the Gators for the repeat next season. Go Gators
Welcome to the party. Nice to see a new face. Your English appears to be as sound as many folks who post here. But if you plan on staying on the basketball forum for a while, you either need to stock up on patience pills or learn the proper dance routine: It can get you a bit dizzy, but you learn to handle it. And it is kind of fun. You know, like how much fun it is when you put hot sauce in your mouth and you have open sores in it...
I'm past the Aberdeen story. I won't let it sour the experience we just had, in which he played a big role.
Your English may not be perfect but you’re far better at typing than I am ! AD left.. oh well. Move on and move up!
I'm excited for the next year's roster. Lee, Brown, Urban, Transfer A (hopefully coward or a great 3d), Freshmen, Haugh, Micah, Cheyenlu and hopefully Condon. We may need another transfer big in case some front court player is injured.
Great title for this thread..in Golden I trust. I was looking forward to seeing him in a bigger role next year but in Golden we trust.
