Hey UF had it's run and should be proud. Billy was gave an awesome opportunity and took it. We'd all do the same. Now I look forward to the Cavs vs Magic games. I'll sport my Lebron Jersey.

but its inevitable. no one wants to stay and create a legacy anymore. but then again i understand that people like donovan want and need new challenges. back to back titles and 3 final fours is damn impressive. we will miss the billy ball for sure! i will watch a few magic games to see whats up. but i still dispise the NBA game.

if he was ever going to make the move, now was the time to do it. back to back ships and he lost all 5 starters. i would rather see him go to the pros than have seen him go to kentucky.
