UF’s Donovan Says BYU Is More Than Just Fredette

Jimmer Fredette is the nation’s leading scorer at 28.8 points per game. BYU recently suspended key complimentary player Brandon Davies.

So it’s kind of obvious Florida needs to focus on Fredette in their Sweet Sixteen battle with the Cougars on Thursday. Right?

“Jimmer gets a lot of publicity and attention and exposure, but it’s really their whole team,” Billy Donovan said yesterday. “We understand with him, he’s certainly a hard guy to defend and stop. But they also have some other good players. … And I don’t think that you really get to this point in the season like they’ve gotten to with it just being one guy.”

Maybe so. But if the Gators can slow down Fredette in New Orleans, they’ll have a darn good shot at reaching the Elite Eight.
