Two more wins and we would have been tied for 4th/5th/6th place...

    I'm more interested in seeing what we've been able to install or improve in this past week with a little extra practice time. It's not easy to retool in the middle of a season as much we have to without Colin.

    Simply, because if we had tweaked a couple of games, we would not be feeling quite as bad as we do now. IMO, we had at least two games we could have won and then we would be exactly where I had hoped we would be. Albeit without CC around to help us get a win in the SECt to secure a berth.

    going 2-2 from here on out might be the best we can hope for. 0-2 is more realistic.

    Actually, 10-0 from here on out is the best we can hope for.

    For when a regular "optimistic" emoji just isn't good enough...

    Kugel would absolutely never have had his breakout with CC on the court, Kuugs drives and makes plays in spaces that CC would be occupying if he were healthy

    I didn't say I was optimistic. Just pointing out the obvious.

    I don't think a couple more wins or losses would change how I feel. The verdict is out. I didn't expect much from TG given the situation and honestly, I think the team I saw with CC outperformed what I thought we would see at the beginning of the year.

    IMO, the jury is still out. I prefer watching the offense under TG instead of watching the point guard bring the ball up and stand there until the clock runs down to 10 seconds to start the offense. My question is whether he will be able to bring in the talent we need and improve.

    Personally, I wasn't craze about the TG hire. It is like hiring a guy with one year as a DC under his belt as our DC for football. I'd prefer experienced coaches that meet my idea of what Florida is or should be.

    But it is pretty clear that the administration doesn't share my view on what Florida should be in basketball or football anymore.
