Gators open Mike White home era with 104-54 win over North Carolina A&T

GAINESVILLE — The Mike White era opened on the Gators' home court with a little bit of everything for everyone.

It added up to UF's first 100-point night in four seasons.

White's Gators forced turnovers for easy baskets, knocked down 3-pointers, had a handful of highlight-reel dunks and even made free throws to give Florida's first-year coach a decisive 104-54 win Monday night against North Carolina A&T.

The last time the Gators scored 100 points was a 107-62 win early in the 2011-12 season against Jacksonville. Orlando native Skyler Rimmer, a 6-foot-10 Stanford transfer, pushed the Gators over the century mark with a 3-pointer with 2:23 remaining.
