Gators’ Donovan may go under the knife
Everybody knows the Florida Gators are in full re-building mode after their back-to-back NCAA titles. Now, it appears that process might take a little longer than expected.
Head coach Billy Donovan has a bad back. He’s suffered back problems since his playing days at Providence College, where he suffered two fractures in his back.
Those back problems have grown steadily worse, and Donovan might require surgery to fix the problem.
“I’m concerned because I haven’t been able to walk,” Donovan said. “It takes me a while. The other day, I got out of bed and couldn’t stand up and had to crawl to the bathroom. So that’s kind of what I’m dealing with now. I’ve had back problems for a long time, so it’s not anything new.”
Gator fans are praying that Donovan’s back will allow him to coach the talented group of incoming Gator freshmen. If Donovan is unable to go, it could be a mighty long year in Gainesville.
