Well, I think our early schedule is tough. Yes there are a couple of cupcakes, but in total, a lot of teams won’t play as many tough tournament matchups or on the road competition. This early schedule, like last year, wiil have surprise tough teams, like Florida Atlantic. We will need every win we can get, to firmly place ourselves come early NCAA time. The SEC will be very tough, wins will have to be earned nightly, no disappearing shooting nights.
Arrives on campus tonight. Florida Gators basketball addition Kajus Kublickas of Lithuania to arrive in Gainesville this week
With Kublickas arriving in Gainesville, Florida's entire 2023-24 team has made it to campus. The Lithuanian guard was the only member of the team who did not participate in summer workouts, though he did stay active in the months leading up to his move to the United States as he represented his country in U20 international competition. Kublickas averaged 6.3 points and 3.1 assists per game in 16.3 minutes. He participated in seven contests.
Kublickas added to the official roster plus two new walk-ons. 2023-24 Men's Basketball Roster - Florida Gators
If he can play anything like the guys on the Lithuanian team that beat USA at the FIBA World Cup we will have a winner. BTW Lithuania has a population of less than 3 million. The US has a population of over 300 million.
