Not So Fast, My Friend!
This is the sort of news which could knock the collective college basketball world flat on its ass.
Donovan. Is. Reconsidering.
Fox Sports was the first to break the news. Then ESPN broke into their coverage of the Yankees-Red Sox game to announce that Donovan had had a change of heart and was talking with the Magic about returning to Florida. Now ESPN.com has picked up the story and it’s rapidly spreading. At 11:53PM, Andy Katz is yacking on ESPN News via a phone interview.
HALLELUJAH… ! Probably… the Magic will need to let Donovan out of his contract. But if his heart is in Gainesville, wouldn’t the NBA franchise be crazy not release him? Discuss.
Nota Bene: Here’s a Kentucky fan (from Catspause.com) that really gets it.

I was watching the Yankees and Redsox when the commercial came on…it was like the clouds opened up and God said “just kiddin’ Gator Nation”.
But that’s all I have to say about it. I’ll learn from the UK fans’ mistakes.
ps: “Nota Bene: Here’s a Kentucky fan (from Catspause.com) that really gets it.”….That’s. Just. Funny.

Outstanding. As I said here before, I’d love for Donovan to stay, so I’m excited for you guys. However, I wonder what made him change his mind. According to that big Barbara Walters-esk column by Andy Katz on Friday, Donovan had done a ton of soul searching and felt like Orlando was the right move. The column mentioned that Billy’s wife had signed off on the deal, and it really wasn’t about money, and Billy had been putting off signing that new Florida contract for a while. So I wonder what changed over the weekend?

Gimel:
Maybe common sense?
Go to the NBA and become another run of the mill ego stroker…
-OR-
Stay in Hogtown and be revered as a earth walking avatar of a basketball god…
Seems like an easy choice…
