GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Last Monday was Billy Donovan's farewell University of Florida news conference.
Today is Michael White's hello news conference.
White, hired Thursday following four seasons at Louisiana Tech, will be introduced by UF athletic directory Jeremy Foley during an 11 a.m. presser in the Gator Room. The event will be televised by the SEC Network and will also streamed live by GatorVision here and on Watch ESPN here.
The 38-year-old White went 101-40 and won regular-season titles in both Conference-USA (2014 and '15) and the Western Athletic Conference Donovan ('13). His Bulldogs teams were among the nation's leaders in 3-point attempts, turnover margin and points per possession.
White, a four-year starting point guard at Ole Miss during the 1990s, is replacing Donovan, who guided the Gators to 467 wins, six Southeastern Conference championships, 14 NCAA Tournament berths and two national championships over 19 seasons. Donovan resigned 10 days ago to become head coach of the NBA Oklahoma City Thunder.
