    Will be work his way to a coach one day, or is this something he can build on. Don't know anything about off the court spots.
    Is he allowed to work with players on the court at all?

    If its the same as football, it really just means he can’t leave campus to recruit.

    Agreed! We just brought in a Gator Great! We can tell high school prospects this guy not only knows how to win multiple national championships, he knows what one of the top coaches in the NBA is looking for, and knows how to develop a kid to get to that level. Awesome hire!

    Taurean’s Dad was a good NBA player and a college coach as well. Glad he is back with UF and beginning his coaching career

    I am just as excited about the fact that we added yet ANOTHER position, as I am about the person who we hired!!
    This is the MOST encouraged I have ever been about the commitment to basketball!

    This obviously didn’t happen overnight and wasn’t random. Wonder if Billy—Green’s boss in Chicago—had a role?

    Whether he played a role in the hire or not, for sure Taurean wouldn’t be coming if Billy didn’t approve. Billy offered his help to White and was, as far as I can tell, not wanted. This is great news.

    So I’ve heard we potentially are building a new arena near the baseball/softball stadium?

    could this explain the delay in the camera flip?
