Mick Hubert announces retirement

Following 33 years as the “Voice of the Gators,” Mick Hubert will retire following this weekend’s baseball series against South Carolina, the University Athletic Association announced on Thursday. Hubert informed athletic director Scott Stricklin of his decision earlier this week.

“This wasn’t the end of a five-year plan,” Hubert said in the release. “I don’t know if I can explain how I knew, but I knew. I had been considering this for a little while. I just had to do some praying about it and enjoy every game.

“Five years ago, I’d probably told you I was going to do it until I was at least 80,” Hubert said.
