Anthony Grant is
leaving Florida to join Billy Donovan's staff with the Oklahoma City Thunder, according to the internet today. Grant rejoined Donovan in Florida as an assistant last month, after an unsuccessful run as head coach at Alabama, and now he's leaving the Gators to stick with the man who hired him for the first time in 1994.
Longtime Donovan assistant John Pelphrey is still on the Florida staff, for now. Many, including Donovan, believed he should've been considered for the Gators' head coaching job over Louisiana Tech's Mike White, who was hired last night.
John Pelphrey: Two NCAA tournament appearances as a head coach
Mike White: Zero NCAA tournament appearances as a head coach
But that's not our problem. That's a Florida problem.
