Side note: The win makes UF one of five schools to reach 20
victories in 13 straight seasons (Kansas, Duke, Syracuse and
Gonzaga). Donovan said when he was hired that athletics director
Jeremy Foley asked him how many 20-win seasons he thought Florida
had. Donovan's guess was "20 or 25," and Foley shot back "Five."
Well, we used to play 25 game seasons.
Now teams play 35 or so.
A little easier to get to 20 wins when a 60% W-L brings you there as
opposed to needing an 80% record.
