Ugly 2nd half but the guys stepped up in OT. Lots of work to do, but it goes down as a W. That’s what matters. Good job Gators. Never apologize for a W.
Ball Game 102-98 Gators! Big come back win-I will take it-was it frustrating and annoying at times-Yes-however a win is a win is a win-I will gladly take it Under a past coach-this team would have folded and we would have lost (he is on the other sidelines now) Our team still fought , didn't give up, and won Now go back and correct those mistakes-got another big game coming up away,
Agree on both. I'd have Pullin or even Condon inbound. This idea of not fouling doesn't have to mean matador defense.
Clayton has his moments. We need ZP to step up and lead the team. He probably needs to be more vocal and trust his outside shot more. Just what I’m seeing.
All I can say is, Mike White is Mike White. Close but no cigar. Golden is a work in progress. This team is going to struggle to win enough games to get into the tourney. Methinks we need more depth. Mr Consonants did not get in and we don't have any confidence in Kugel or Aberdeen for long stretches. Haugh is a freshman. Rishwain is the missing man and won't get much time to play. This is going to be a VERY bumpy ride coming down the stretch. Will a Quad 1 opponent brain fart a game to us?
I could focus on this being a game that should not have been close, but right now I'm focused on 9 in a row versus the mutts and this being a good lesson on the road to March.
Clayton will play out of his mind scoring. Then make four crazy horrible passes in a row. We struggle with getting the ball in against the press. With all that said, winning is all that matters.
My emotional outbursts of cursing at the tv even got my wife's attention, she watched Gators BB for the first time since the National Championship days!
Sorry I'm just now responding. I didn't go on this board during the 2nd half. I keep the Stats.broadcas.com site up from floridagators.com men's basketball, schedule, live stats Here's the link to the end of game stats. I like the split box tab. StatBroadcast Live Stat Feed
A win is a win but that's back to back games were things got dicey late in the 2nd half. Let's not do that again, please.
He is a composure and professionalism cut above the rest of the team. He absolutely needs to step up and take control. He makes great decisions, can convert his shots and make his FTs. Meanwhile Condon has been sensational at the FT line in crunch time. The kid is just a baller (no matter the shape of the ball or game)
Think about this. We had to shoot a high number in order to win against our real competition at home. Not a good trend for the away games and the upper-echelon teams at home.
