    Reading this article about how Georgetown snubbed the Gator's Joaquim Noah in recruiting and how that has fired him up for a payback is music to this Gator's ears.

    Think Noah may have a big game on Fri.? :D

    1. I didn't know he was the son of Yannick Noah. I used to follow tennis quite a bit, and I remember Yannick. Seems odd that the son of a French Tennis star would end up playing Basketball in Fla.

    2. That old spurned routine doesn't work. We hear it every year at almost every Notre Dame football game, the old I was a ND fan growing up but they didn't recruit me angst. If the team is better they beat us, if not we beat them.

    Taurean Green the UF point guard is the son of former NBA player Sidney Green and forward Al Horford is the son of former NBAer Tito Horford.

    It's a team of athletic bluebloods for sure.
