In advance of his induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, legendary Florida men’s basketball coach Billy Donovan will be recognized during an in-game ceremony at the Gators’ football game against LIU on Saturday, August 30, at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.

Donovan guided Florida from 1996-2015, leading the program to two national championships, four Final Fours, six Southeastern Conference regular-season titles, four SEC Tournament crowns, and 467 victories. Since leaving Gainesville, Donovan has recorded 438 NBA wins during stints with the Chicago Bulls and Oklahoma City Thunder.

 

The 2025 Naismith Hall of Fame class will be enshrined Sept. 5-6 at the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. Donovan was originally announced as a member of the 2025 Hall of Fame class on April 5, when he was honored along with the entire class at halftime of the Gators’ Final Four win in San Antonio.
