mattmatik Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Can't say I'm happy about it but I think Billy D. deserves his shot. I feel bad that history is not on his side and I have a gut feeling he'll be back in college basketball in a few years. Here's to hoping for his success and that UF finds a replacement quickly.

Purple Haze Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Can't really ask for a better situation if you're Donovan: driving distance from home, rising team with cap space and a great young stud to build around, a place that free agents love to go to, etc. Oh, and lots of money.
