TORONTO – When Billy Donovan was the coach at Florida, his name would pop up anytime a college basketball blueblood was shopping for a coach.
He’s almost two seasons into his NBA career, and sometimes it still happens.
Indiana fired coach Tom Crean on Thursday after nine seasons at the school. Since long before that happened, there’s been speculation that the Hoosiers might one day pursue Donovan, who won the 2006 and 2007 NCAA championships at Florida.
But Donovan said prior to the Thunder’s game against the Raptors Thursday night that he’s enjoying life with Oklahoma City.
