Florida coach Billy Donovan scored a major coup early Sunday morning when Chris Walker committed to the Gators over Kansas, Kentucky and Louisville.
“I will be playing college basketball for the University of Florida…and I will be teaming up with my teammate off the AAU squad, Kasey Hill, and together we will be the best duo in college basketball and we will win a national championship,” he said on a video on HTHoops.com.
The high-flying, 6-foot-10 Walker, out of Bonifay County (Fla.) Holmes County, is the No. 2 power forward in the Class of 2013, per Rivals.
His stay at Florida could be short as he is talented enough to be a one-and-done-type player, but with one year alongside Hill, they could do some serious damage.

Sorry but youre not winning anything with Billy Donovan. Florida was the obvious choice but to win he should have chose UK or KU

Shut the fuck up rock chalk. Billy Donovan has as many titles in the the last 6 years, as KU in the last sixty.
Nice haul by Billy Donovan, should be a great duo.

Haha look at uofgay telling someone to shut the fuck. Chris walker is one and done 100%. Billys winning teams have been veteran teams with experience. A couple freshmen aren’t gonna come in and win shit with billy. And billys also a guard oriented team and in the past 5 years his star center/forward recruits have underachieved. No ones won as much as UK and KU buddy they’re the most winning programs with the best 2 coaches in the game today

Best two coaches today?
What r u ten?
Ever heard of coach k, Roy Williams, Tom izzo?
U are a true dope.

RcKchalk12 / July 22, 2012
all debatable but Duke overrated every year, had an easy NC. UNC just missed the tournaments a couple years ago but Roy has 2 NC so yes hes great. Tom Izzo….. that ones just a joke he gets to the game but loses Hes 1 for 6 in FF, and he hasnt won as many games as Self or Cal. No ones as consistent as Self or Cal. Whose had the most 30 win seasons since 2000? Answer me that and then you can talk

UofA BJ / July 22, 2012
How about boeheim, pitinO, and Calhoun?
You pretend like NC r so easy to win and FF r a lock.
As great of a program as KU is they only have 3 NC in close to 100 years.
Listen self is is great coach and all but u r dead wrong saying is is top 2 coach.

Calipari is probably the best all around coach in the game right now. No other coach has demonstrated the ability to recruit such great talents and develop them into a real team. Cal also has the best defensive teams every year as well.
I’ve heard the nonsense that Cal is not a good x and o coach and that is bunk. The guy can flat out coach ala UMass.
If you hate Kentucky basketball you are experiencing the worst decade of your life now and to come….

PLEASE do not mention Boeheim hes overrated and Self and Cal have already gotten as many NC as him. Pitino is great but again hes had down years….. Self hasnt had a down year in well over a decade and Cal’s last down year was 04(almost positive) at Memphis. KU hasnt even had the top talent like they usually do and theyre still winning, sure Cal’s job is easier with the talent but he makes the chemistry work which is why hes a good coach

Walker has lots of work to do on his game. He is he next Tyrus Thomas at this point.

KingCal8 / July 23, 2012
Bill Self is also one hell of a coach. He did a great job with his team this year. Self proved that he could “coach up” unlike Roy Williams who had 6 Mcdonald AA’s in 2010 and went to the NIT.

hey kingcal8. everyone knows all cal does is roll out the ball. he has good defense because he has great talent. he doesn’t teach squat. CHEW ON THIS http://vaughtsviews.com/?p=21272

miltk, turn your sarcasm meter on.

KingCal8 / July 25, 2012
Miltk, you have to be about as dumb as they come! You are right, Cal does roll out the balls and has just won the first of a few titles. Your pain is delicious….
