It was just a matter of time before Frank Martin ran him out of the conference.

Great coach. I think the best college coach in the game, fwiw. Tough loss for the gators, but he gave them the best he had and turned them into a power. Now we'll see if they can get their basketball version of Urban Meyer to keep it going (minus the murders, hopefully).

Donovan was at Florida for 19 seasons? Wow. Had no idea it had been that long. Had an outstanding run. Now go win in the pros. Good luck to him.
