Report: Armon Gates leaving Florida’s staff for Nebraska weeks after hiring

When the Florida Gators nabbed assistant Armon Gates from Northwestern in early April, it was painted as a coup.

Less than a full month later, Gates is reportedly no longer with the Gators — and the circumstances of his departure are strange, to say the least.

Per Chicago-area hoops writer Joe Henricksen in the Chicago Sun-Times, Gates is joining the staff at Nebraska after being cut loose by the Gators, and that is reportedly due to the “fickle” nature of Florida head coach Mike White.
