Of course Frank Haith would have gotten his notice of allegations yesterday. Because why would the best night of the basketball season be allowed to only be a good night? That said ... the notice evidently could have been worse ... and the night definitely could have been worse, huh? Huzzah!

  It was fitting that Pressey and Bowers played key roles in the comeback. Both have been under heavy criticism over the last few games. Pressey committed costly turnovers in each of those previous three come-from-ahead losses, but had five points, two rebounds, seven assists an no turnovers in the final 15:50 on Tuesday.

  "Phil was outstanding," Haith said. "He's one of the best point guards in the country and he played like it tonight.

  "He was dialed in on both ends."

  "I thought the last ten minutes, our pick and roll coverage on Pressey was not great," Florida head coach Billy Donovan said. "I thought he was, at our place, crazy when he played. I really thought he really did a terrific job running his team, limited number of shots, got the ball where it needed to go, made the game easy for everybody else."
