Why does Less than Jake immediately come to mind?

DateDoc · 05-31-2007, 02:19 PM

wow, i never thought he would leave.

TDF · 05-31-2007, 02:19 PM

wow..that is huge news

Sosa · 05-31-2007, 02:27 PM

it's too bad it took them this long to get the deal done. Especially when Jai Lucus just committed to them a few weeks ago.

Neither did we and yes it is a very sad day here in G-Ville

Billy's father coaches here locally, Billy actually fund raised for the catholic school in Gainesville, his whole family and extended family moved to Gainesville this past season so we are very shocked and saddened.

On a good note the NBA needs some help as things have been sliding in the past and I am sure Billy will stir things up some.

I lived in Starke FL for a year .. what a hick shit hole. driving to the mall in Gainesville was such an exciting day ...lol and I remember everything being Gators .. Orange all around

CosmicTang · 05-31-2007, 03:15 PM

Donovan hasn't signed as of 4pm EST.

CosmicTang · 05-31-2007, 04:44 PM

It's official now.

Billy Donovan is the head coach in Orlando. 5 years, $27.5 million.

Sosa · 05-31-2007, 05:19 PM

money talks. wonder what all those recruits are thinking now

GatorB · 05-31-2007, 07:25 PM

I'm torn because I'm also a Magic fan. I'd prefer Billy staying in Gainesville, but I always knew he'd eventually go to the NBA so if that was going to happen anyways it might as well be Orlando.

As far as teh UF recurits. Yeah maybe they're a bit miffed, but on the other hand hopefully they understand they are a good team anyways and trust me Florida is a in demand job so UF will get a quality coach.
