Donovan Leaves Florida for Magic

University of Florida head coach Billy Donovan has decided to take a job with the NBA’s Orlando Magic, ending the questions over whether he would stay in Florida or, perhaps, coach at Kentucky. Donovan leaves after his second NCAA Basketball Championship in a row.
The search for a new coach at one of the nation’s most prolific programs in recent years will begin immediately. Florida has a reputation for providing its student-athletes and coaches with the best possible means of competing, as evidenced by Florida’s dominance in basketball and football. Andy Katz of ESPN made sure to advertise the job a bit more, citing that Jeremy Foley, the Gators’ athletic director is one of the best in the country.

Whoever takes over in Gainesville, you can be sure that StubHub.com will have Florida Gators tickets to see the new guy on the sidelines.
