I had to fight through it and just tell everybody it was going to be all right. I knew we weren't going to stay in last the whole season. After starting 1-3 in conference play, the Gators will defy even their own star tonight if they can get a win against Kentucky in Rupp Arena. Florida is one win away from first place.
Every team goes through adversity.
Sometimes it comes in the form of injuries. Sometimes it comes in the form of losses. Sometimes it comes in the form of both. With us facing injuries, it has forced our younger guys to get tough, and I think that's the way you've got to be when adversity sets in. Adversity is something the Gators are accustomed to at Kentucky.
