How could he pass it up? The beauty of the move is that if he flops, he gets the $$$ and every college in the country will be on the phone to hire him.

This is coming from a very unhappy Gator fan.

I bet they have PP.

Wonder if he'd have taken the Magic job if he had already taken the UK job? Wouldn't put it past him.

Pretty quiet in here from the Gators fans!!! At first I was really upset. but then i could see it from BDs' point...everyone is gone now from team...6M a year to accept the challenge...and if it doesn't work out,he can still coach anywhere he wants. Will be interesting to see if his transition works!

With the continued improvement of Darko Milicic, Donovan will have them in the finals in a year!! He sees Howard and Darko as an upscale version of Horford and Noah.

You ain't kiddin baby. And I quote....

Florida's incoming recruits were not the first to call Lucas, however. A future Wildcat actually dialed him first.

"The first person to call me was Patrick Patterson," said a laughing Lucas. "He said, 'I told you so' and told me to quit playing around and come to Kentucky."


HAHA!!!! Kentucky will now dominate the SEC once again!!!!!!! Everything is how it should be!!!

HE spent the last 3 days watching Darko tapes and figured the freshman coming in to replace Noah and Horford were a better bet!!!
