Florida Repeats, Noah Has "No Idea"

As predicted by yours truly in his Facebook bracket, the University of Florida has repeated as national champions, the first team to do so since Duke in 1991-1992. The game didn't seem very exciting and I didn't pay attention for most of it.

What I found more interesting, however, was Joakim Noah's post-game speech. Cicero he's not, and sure he's a kid who is excited at having just won a (second) national championship, but man he sure sounded stupid in his "You have no idea" speech.



The YouTube video above misses the first few seconds of Noah's remarks, but you get the idea. Was it too hard to put together a few perfunctory sentences for the cameras, something about it being a hard season, his teammates sticking together, a good job by Billy Donovan, a nod to Ohio State, the thrill of repeating, anything? Thankfully Donovan cut him off before he could go on for too long.

Ok, it's not really a big deal, but still kind of disappointing. Fellow college stars Durant and Oden, who like Noah are probably headed for the NBA, seem much more intelligent and mature by comparison.
