GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Florida coach Mike White is getting a few pointers about his new job.
Not just anyone's two cents, either.
White has spoken to former Florida coach Billy Donovan several times in the last few days about what to expect and who to lean on as he makes the most daunting coaching transition of his life.
It's a welcome relief, especially given the program Donovan put together in Gainesville and the legacy he left behind.
White, speaking at his introductory news conference Monday, says "it's more of embracing the fact that you have a great, great job that coach Donovan has built. I think it was a good job when he got here, and now it's a great job."
Replacing Donovan will be a tough task.
