Thursday’s Gator basketball practice included an open session for media and a scrimmage to end the day.

It may have just been an exhibition game but the Florida men’s basketball team didn’t let Eckerd College go down without a fight…at least in the second half. At the end of the first, the Gators were down 34-33 but in the second, the team roared back, outscoring the Tritons by …

With a crowd one-tenth of the size Florida is used to, the Gators got off to a slow start, finding themselves down by one at the end of the first half. The final twenty minutes were a completely different story, as a 19-2 run midway through the second half propelled …

Head coach Mike White and the Florida Gators men’s basketball team open up their season tomorrow with an exhibition at home (sort of) against the Eckerd College Tritons in Jacksonville at 7 p.m. Mike White and John Egbunu spoke to the media on Tuesday afternoon and offered up some thoughts …

A new season, but a similar cast of characters awaits Mike White in his second season as Florida’s head coach.

No Egbunu, no problem. The Florida Gators continued their strong play through the first two rounds of the NIT, as UF took down Ohio State, 74-66. Kevarrius Hayes got the start for John Egbunu, who was declared out for the season earlier this week with a torn ligament in his …

The Gators have not squared off against the Ohio State Buckeyes in the post-season since Gainesville, FL was Titletown, U.S.A. Back then, Joakim Noah and Al Horford commanded a dominate front-court, while Corey Brewer, the 2007 NCAA Tournament’s MOP, led the squad’s offensive attack. This Sunday, the stakes are different. Instead …

The Florida men’s basketball team allowed 44 points in the paint en route to a 72-66 loss to the Texas A&M Aggies in the SEC Tournament in Nashville on Friday.  The loss could knock UF out of contention for an NCAA Tournament bid. The Aggies’ 44 points in the paint …
