Florida Basketball has been a popular topic of conversation this time of year. With everyone filing out their brackets for March Madness, it is hard to go wrong with picking the Gators to win it all this year in San Antonio.
We here at Hail Florida Hail have the Gators winning it all this year, but if you don't want to take our word for it, here are five other notable people who have the Gators coming out on top in their NCAA Tournament bracket.
Gabby Thomas
Thomas burst onto the track and field scene during the Tokyo Olympics, where she won a coupld of medals. But her real stamp on the track and field world came these past Olympics in Paris when she won the gold medals in the 200 meter dash, the 4 x 100 meter relay, and the 4 x 400 meter relay.
Thomas went to Harvard, so you know she would make the smart pick for Florida to beat Duke in the title game.

The ESPN analyst has had nothing but praise for the Gators over the past couple of weeks. During the SEC Tournament he stated the Gators had no weakness and claims there is no one in country who could beat them over a seven game series.
