TAMPA — Last April, Florida won its third men’s basketball national championship in a final play that will be remembered forever. It’s perhaps the most famous non-shot in NCAA men’s tournament history: Houston’s Emanuel Sharp passing up a three at the last moment and watching the ball trickle away from him helplessly as the Gators’ bench stormed the floor jubilantly.
Perhaps it’s fitting that the Gators’ race to repeat as champs ended on another non-shot.
