Will the UGA Dwags rationalize our basketball NC as being Mike White's doing?

They probably will.

They however seem to forget Mike White castrated himself from Gainesville and hightailed it to basketball purgatory cause he could not deliver big boy results.

Can't wait to read how they spin this into "Mike White will for sure bring us a NC in Athens."

Todd Golden has real passion for the sport and his team. His fire, obviously, rubs off on his players and positively affects the way they play. On top of that Golden came to UF with a plan. He uses analytics, but also built the team piece by piece with guys who fit exactly what he was looking for. Mike White was/is a great guy who is a pretty good, though low-key coach. The Gators definitely took a major step up by hiring Todd Golden, IMO.

The thing about Golden, is the vision he is building has just begun. He also plans to mix in more international talent and it has started with Alex Condon and Rueben Chinlyeu.
 
Well, he also lucked out and got a generational level point guard…so that helps…a little…
I thought Zyon Pullin was generational level point guard but Clayton Jr transitioning to PG made him a much better all around player that he's become.

the funniest part now is our last loss of the season was to Mikey
 
Lucked out by recruiting him and mentoring him and coaching him.
Yeah, ok dude
I'm also sure Golden was well aware Clayton was also heavily recruited by Mullen as a safety.

On a side note, Walter's mom is hot, and so is his baby's mama. Much more attractive than UCONN Liam McNeeley's heavily injected botox mother, who CBS kept the cameras on more than the players on the court. Oh, and Mrs Clayton doesn't need botox like Liam McNeeley's mom.
 
The only time I bothered reading any of Bianchi's articles, he forever clowned
former Cocks coach Brad Scott and Phil Fulmer for being fat asses. That was back when he worked for the Florida Times Union in Jax.
I remember those. Then he ran out of material, so he turned on UF for the clicks.

Mike White is a good guy, and a really good recruiter. He's an average coach. If you are ok with a middle of the pack team with an occasional decent run, then he's your guy. If you want your program to eventually win a championship, you probably need to look elsewhere. Glad he's elsewhere.

Just a friendly reminder that UGA paid us $3 million to get Mike White.

Three years later UF has a basketball NC and Mike White just scraped his way into the Big Dance.

Someone's looking not too bright in Athens......
 
Mike White has always been good for one or two signature wins each season such as wins over UF and Kentucky, but they did whip a healthy UK team the same night we whipped the Tiny Tim looking coach and Tinerc.

He was also good for losing three or four to teams he shouldn't...usually caused by a 10 minute scoring drought resulting in the inexplicable "upset".
