Curious to see what impact this has on the UK recruiting class, especially G J Vilarino from McKinney. We need another PG.

Also, wonder if my man Anthony Grant from VCU, who has visited twice with Bama re: their opening will get in the UK mix? He is the "hot" coaching candidate @ the moment.

There are reports coming out of Orlando that Florida's Billy Donovan will be named the new head coach.
If that's right, Anthony Grant was waiting for the Donovan thing to happen to see if he would go to Florida to replace Donovan.
Missouri's Mike Anderson to Alabama?

Word was that Anthony Grant had taken the Alabama job this afternoon, but then it was said that nothing has been confirmed yet.

Another humbling home loss to a no-name program ...
Those dang no-name programs.

Are you allowed to wear white before Memorial Day? Or is it Easter?

Why would they hire Billy Donovan? if going to the NIT is unacceptable hiring Donovan makes no sense!

Apparently, Donovan issued a statement saying that he was committed to Florida. Will that be enough to quash the rumors?

You're joking, right?
