Many Florida fans remember the 2016-2017 men’s basketball season for three reasons: Chris Chiozza’s game-winner against Wisconsin in the Sweet 16, Canyon Barry’s underhanded free throws and the opening of a renovated O’Connell Center.
The passionate fans, though, still dream about what could’ve been if center John Egbunu never suffered a torn ACL against Auburn on Feb. 14.
Despite his absence, Florida was able to muster together an NCAA Tournament run that lasted until the Elite Eight where it fell to South Carolina 77-70.
But, what if Egbunu never got injured?
If he never gets hurt, I believe the Gators make their sixth Final Four in program’s history.
