Sorry for their loss. Hopefully we'll be in a position similar to that in a couple of years though.l

interesting White gets the Florida gig despite never getting to the NCAAs with La Tech. according to wikipedia, La Tech won or tied for conference regular season title in each of the past 3 seasons.

White went 101-40. His predecessor had gone 57-73

4-0 against Rice? That is a signature indeed. Not just anybody can claim that.

Well, good for him. I hope he does well. Wish we could have made it 1-4 with Rhoades at the helm before he moved on. Or 5-4.

I think he is a great hire for Florida. I have written in this forum before that he was my first choice for the HC job at Rice when Coach Braun left. His teams were exceptionally athletic and disciplined on the court. CUSA needs to keep this caliber of coach in the conference.

Key point is that someone wanted to hire him away.

I also wonder if any Div. I team, or coach, has won 100 games in 4 years without getting a single NCAA bid. I doubt it.
