    Please be true!!!!!!!!!!! This guy has a blue check so it means he’s at least not an average fan tweeting it.

    Can anyone confirm we are completely off the hook for paying any of his buyout? And as a matter of fact we can come out of this WITH money in the bank from Georgia to put towards our next coach.

    He's got more than a check - nearly 300K followers. He's not really focused on UF, so I don't see any reason why he'd just make this up

    I thought Ole Miss or LSU were strong possibilities. Very strange that he decided to go to Georgia. Hard to root for him at all now. I hope SS is prepared and has a list.

    Why would he kid about something like that? White wanted out. Couldn’t handle the pressures of the Florida job. Georgia fan expectations are low so they will do cartwheels not competing for last place each season anymore.

    Finally excited about UF basketball.

    We finally have hope again. Maybe it won’t turn into anything but hope is the greatest feeling

    I imagined a lot of ways this might play out, but I have to admit, this scenario never occurred to me.

    I understand that it’s a business. White had shaky job security beyond next season, and the rebuilding project at UGA gives him more years before his seat gets warm again. Nonetheless . . . UGA?? He couldn’t find a comparable job that wasn’t a huge rival of a place that gave him his break and treated him well?
