He should get both a block and an assist for that.

Might be tempted to have Houston back in the Final Four :man_shrugging:

Not a fan, they got a ridiculously great draw last year and should of lost to Rutgers. Not a big believer in their style of play.

Is he alumni of Georgia? Otherwise that makes so sense. Heā€™s in the same conference with a much worse team

Gregorius Gardenhire has earned my begrudging respect at least. Mike White is the worst basketball coach in the country. Heā€™s so bad that my jinx doesnā€™t even work on him. If he were anyone else I would have made him a 3x national champ by now

Because he turbo stinks and Florida probably wanted to fire him

Basically a Shaka move. Heā€™s on thin ice there and fans donā€™t like him. Gets him 5 to 6 more years no matter what

If youā€™re Chris Holtmann, you have to try and get your name into the ring for that job, right?

Which job? Florida?

Yeah. Heā€™d have an objectively better resume than White when hired. Thatā€™s a pretty big program, so I feel like they could make a big splash, but I feel like Holtmannā€™s agent should be putting out feelers.

I now need to know how White even got that job. His resume was terrible for a school like Florida. What the heck was going on there?

And Florida/Georgia have a pretty big rivalry. This is like us hiring Holtmann. Really weird move.

Thats an outstanding call. I was just thinking about Florida being a pretty big job to open so the dominos will start falling.

I think this is an enormous weekend for OSU and Holtmann. Whispers will start getting quite a bit louder if they get bounced.

If they were healthy theyā€™d be tough man. Sasser is a real nice player and their missing another key rotation piece whoā€™s name I canā€™t think of

Tramon Mark. Also theyā€™ve risen to #4 overall in KenPom

My take is that, while the Florida-Georgia football rivalry is gigantic and is the Worldā€™s Biggest Cocktail Party, the basketball version is two guys sitting in a bar and occasionally glancing at the Florida-Georgia basketball game on a television.

As for hiring Holtmann, yes, that would be strange, but let me throw out a hypothetical: We lose our coach really late - i.e. when Beilein took the Cavalier job. Would you hire one of our ā€œbitter rivalā€ coaches (Underwood, Gard, Holtmann, etc.) if they were available and willing to come?

But yes, this does seem like a weird move. Maybe he knows heā€™s in hot water at Florida? Thatā€™s all Iā€™ve got.

I would hire Underpants in a heartbeat. Gard and Holtmann no way
