The Florida Gators Men's Basketball team accomplished the unbelievable last year. No, not their second consecutive NCAA championship, but convincing key members of the 2006 championship team to return to school for another year rather than leaving for the pros. Then, Head Coach Billy Donovan turned down a lucrative NBA head coaching job to stay at the school. Clearly there is something special about this program.
For demonstrating true commitment to excellence, the 2007 Gators received the America's Team award (accepted by Assistant Coach Lewis Preston) on November 11. America's Team Founder and CEO Bryan Reichel traveled to Gainesville to present the award.
