Donovan is a overrated coach.

Good at recruiting but not that good at calling plays out of a timeout.

They stopped all offensive attack when they were up 9 with 6 to go.

Happens a lot. Teams stop doing what got them there. Then when they need to turn it back on, it's not there.

Stupid. Go for it! No fear!

They had a nice size lead for most of the 2nd half...You are right, they didn't close with what got them the lead.  They missed some big FT's as well late.  They blew the game period, and didn't play good D wit the lead late...

Maclin got in foul trouble. And it toughened up inside there.

Walker is also a bonehead.

Why take that prayer 3 pointer when there was like 4 seconds left and you could have either dished off or gotten in a better spot to shoot.

What a god damn stupid thread, they lost because they put Butler on the line every fucking possession under the 6 minute mark. that game was officiated just to fit a teams style to win not better than the other.

explain how you can play defense when existing on the court gets a foul called. That game was a joke on both sides and favored Butler

I agree they probably should've had Walker drive instead of pull up for a 3, but that was actually a really good look....far from a prayer.  He pulled up in rhythm with the defender back pedaling (a lot like Morehead St.'s big 3-point shot).

You don't win back to back national championships by being overrated. If recruiting won titles, Calipari would have about 5.  And, I highly doubt he was drawing up 25-30 footers for 3 out of the TO.

Billy D. won those titles on talent alone. He had no clue how they won.

A joke is being up by 11 with 8 minutes to play and losing the game.

Words from a Florida homer who saw the game wth rose colored glasses. Billy D blew it. Fact.

I know that most people that post here are ignorant and that is why they always lose, but if you think Florida lost the game because of Billy Donovan, well it simply makes sense why you lose all the time.

not to mention the final possession in regulation- 30 seconds to work with and hoist up a 30 foot prayer, with no time for a rebound--pathetic
