Florida G Michael Frazier II expected out Thursday

big loss, but does it really matter much at this point? rather he was healthy than playing with issues, but this team is clearly going nowhere. Lucky if they even get NIT bid, although they are better in general than the record shows. When they work together they do well, they just cant seem to do it for 40 minutes most of the time. Much better to protect MF from an injury that could be horrible than to push for anything this team might sneak in to. I would rather they get nowhere and care for the kids than get into a minor postseason tourney and possibly seriously push someone with a big future too hard.

Great decision by Coach D. no ego, doesn’t care about the 20 win season stuff, doesn’t care about where they may end up, gets it that this team just isn’t very good, and take its lumps, and the chips fall where they may as to if any or what post season tourney they may get invited to. This team is clearly not a team that can challenge for the NC, so why put anyone in danger of serious injury just for a possible brief moment of glory? Glad Billy doesn’t have that kind of ego.

Those of you that keep whining about how crappy the BD system is and how there is no physical presence and how you lie about how horrible they are about pushing it inside except for the last 2 teams, etc., etc., should be embarrassed.

He recruits extremely well, puts together solid teams, is always competitive in a school that was virtually never competitive before he got here. He has recruited those players you say he never recruits for the “inside presence”, when he gets them, he uses them as he can, when he doesn’t, he makes the best out of those that have bought in and joined.

The “system” as your posts keep calling it, is not move the ball around and find the open 3 and pray, except for a couple of recent selfish guards like Walker and Boynton, especially walker, it has always been move it around and get it inside, take the 3 when a clear shot and you are a decent a shooter with the green light. This year, no one can make anything inside or outside consistently, so let them learn who to work as a team, figure out how to be a player, and how to succeed.

I know this is a down season, but a couple of you keep trashing Billy D and his “soft style”. Shame on you. There is a reason why ESPN voted him #1 best coach in the country today. He won 2 NC with players who were completely unheralded at the time and supposedly horrible. he has now been to 5 final 4s, 3 NC games and 2 NC wins, along with multiple elite 8.

Really? This isn’t good enough? His style of coaching sucks? What the hell do you expect? Clearly he has a winning formula and understands what it takes to get to the elite level.

I really find it sad and somewhat embarrassing those of you that keep posting about how horrible Billy D’s style is and how soft his teams are. I don’t want to call out individuals here, but everyone here knows exactly who I am talking about.

You really are not true fans and expecting the impossible level of success in a program that had virtually no record of success for 100 years before he joined it.

I for one will be proud, honored and thrilled to have him be our coach with whatever style he chooses for the next 30 years!
