FloridaGators.com Writer Chris Harry caught up with a few of the Gators to learn more about their new head coach
As he worked his basketball team, only seven players in all, through a shooting drill on one end of the court Monday, new Florida women’s coach Cameron Newbauer was momentarily distracted by something going on at the other end.
Injured guard Delicia Washington, her right arm encased in a brace following shoulder surgery in March, was doing some form shooting with her off hand. Newbauer jogged to the far basket, grabbed the ball and suggested a move he wanted her to work on; a floater going to her left. He demonstrated the shot.
It did not draw any rim.
“So you want me to do it like that? Shoot an airball?” the saucy sophomore-to-be asked.
“No,” Newbauer shot back. “I want you to make it.”
As he jogged back, the coach wheeled around.
“I know you want to make it about me,” he said with a grin. “But this is about you!”
